One of the wonderful and challenging aspects of marketing is how dynamic the field is. Marketers have to keep their eyes open for trends and constant changes in their ecosystem, both online and offline.
In order to garner more useful insights and stay alert for new trends, I use Twitter. However, as i’m sure you know Twitter has some useful insights and a bunch of self-promoting garbage. This is why I have made a list of 9 of my favorite marketers on Twitter.
