Hello there...Wayne here! If you are new to SocialMarketingExpert.org, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

There are times when you do this type of Social Media Marketing work…in fact many times, you feel alone. Dependent upon the size of your company (and budget) you work hours on end doing the needed “grunt work” that must be done to achieve success in Social Media. You do this not only for your clients, but also for yourself.

So it’s nice to get a nod from your peers…some type of recognition. I have received some recognition that I am very honored to have. Ron Hudson came out with the companion to his 50 of the Most Powerful and Influential Women in Social Media with the …wait for it… 50 Most Powerful and Influential Men in Social Media list.

I snuck in and made spot number 50. I will be the first to say that there are a number of people that should’ve been on that list that aren’t…but hey, Ron went throught he same “Monday Morning Quarterbacking” on the womens list.

So I will just say THANK YOU Ron and those who nominated me and voted for me. I will continue to strive to learn and grow and help others. It’s an industry tha is filled with many amazing people. ANd frankly I’m glad to be in the group.
