THREAD: I’m about to break 3,000 followers, which isn’t a lot, however @BermanHale has inspired me to promote people who inspire me & deserve to be recognized for their expertise and contributions to our practice:

2 @JamRam33 is someone that is not only an expert in marketing, but he holds the industry accountable for true diversity and inclusion. He fights to make sure that Black marketers get the recognition & exposure that they deserve. Industry conferences: BOOK HIM TO SPEAK ASAP!

3 @areej_abuali is fearless and courageous. She has given so many of us a voice and resources with @techseowomen. There is a place for women here in our industry, and it is all because of Areej!!

4 @salumuramazani1 inspires me to push myself to be better. Salumu has been pushing to getting better at coding and python & has been documenting it openly. I wish I had Salumu’s courage to do the same. I know we will all be watching Salumu speak at a conference one day!

5 @voeckseo is one of the most incredible people I have ever met. She runs the show at work & at home, and she also freelances. This woman can do anything and everything. I wish I could have her energy and empathy that she has for others.

6 @LukeDavisSEO is a powerhouse. This man puts 120% of his energy into so many things. He works diligently at SEO, but also in music and writing. I admire his energy and dedication to everything he is doing. He is not only focused, but he is also a wonderful father and friend!

7 I plan to add more people to this thread, but I want to make sure that I’m meaningfully highlighting people for their accomplishments and contributions. I hope everyone follows these people and books them to speak in the near future at an industry event or conference.
