Top Marketing Influencers on Twitter and How They Made it Up There

If you are reading this, chances are you are a Marketing manager, entrepreneur, enthusiast, or maybe a combination of the three. And if you fall into this demographic, you are all too aware that trying to find valuable content among the hundreds of millions of tweets sent every day on Twitter can be a daunting task. Even if you’re browsing through specific hashtags like #digitalmarketing or #seo, a majority of the content is typically saturated with spammers tweeting hundreds of times per minute. Or frankly, unqualified individuals posturing for their networks and regurgitating information they sniped from a Google search. But we can’t be upset about it. This is the current state of social media.

You have shaped their way of thinking, and you’ve fostered meaningful change in their lives. This is true influence, as we spoke on recently. But discovering those who are the most influential can be difficult at times. Social networks are overrun with content, and sifting through it all to find the best resources for your interests can be a monumental task. So let us help you relieve that frustration for you, and show you the top marketing influencers on Twitter, and how they achieved their level of success and influence.

In 1997, before Google hit the market, Ann launched ClickZ, one of the earliest online sources of marketing information. She sold the company in 2000 before taking on a role as Chief Content Officer at MarketingProfs in 2002.
