100 Smartest People in Social Media

Smarter Social Media Releases Annual List of Smartest People in Social Media

Santa Monica, CA - Smarter Social Media – the leading provider of social media marketing services online today is proud to announce the release of its annual list of The 100 Smartest People in Social Media. The list is made up of bloggers, company executives, celebrities and other social media marketers. Jaspar Weir, Partner at Smarter Social Media says, “Given the number of hacks in the social media marketing space this list is more important than ever.” Indeed, there is a growing doubt about the value of social media services. Just this past week BusinessWeek released an article comparing social media to snake oil.

 

The list, which was compiled during the past month using an exhaustive research process that vetted nearly a thousand social media thought leaders, hopes to help companies find the most creative and innovative online marketers around today. Over the course of this week the list will be released on the Smarter Social Media blog.

 

Bryce Maddock, Partner at Smarter Social Media says, “We are very proud of this list. On it, you will find the brightest minds in social media today. We made a point to include other social media marketing services, and hope that the list can be helpful for companies when they are looking for legitimate online marketers. But more than anything we want to take a moment to celebrate the 100 brilliant individuals who have been included on the list.”

 

This is the first annual edition of the 100 Smartest People in Social Media. The company hopes to make this list an annual reoccurrence that honors the best of the industry.
