HubSpot's Iliyana Stareva is the author of Inbound PR, a new book in which she urges traditional PR agencies to embrace inbound marketing not only by integrating it into their offerings to clients, but by taking an inbound approach to media relations itself, including creating robust online newsrooms for journalists, bloggers and other media targets.
