50 #CMWorld Influencers to Follow in 2018

Content Marketing World (Sept 4-7 in Cleveland, Ohio) is the world’s largest content marketing-focused event and an ideal opportunity to develop a high-impact content marketing strategy for your business in Q3 and beyond.

It’s also an unparalleled opportunity to network with many of the industry’s best and brightest.

To help you prepare for the conference, Lee Odden and the TopRank Marketing team kindly compiled this list:

Twitter List of #CMWorld Conference Speakers

Simply follow the list and learn about many of the key topics that matter most to the content marketing community, including strategy, storytelling, ROI, demand generation, AI, and more to help you build your social footprint, website traffic, leads, and sales.  

As part of our show preparations, the Nimble team is reaching out to speakers and attendees alike to learn more about their goals and show them how we can help you build better relationships during CMW and beyond.

How We Curated The List

As part of this process, we were astonished to realize that more than half of the top #CMW18 social influencers (as ranked by LittleBird’s Insider Scores) will not be taking the stage this year. In fact, 27 of the 50 top insiders are attending the show (collectively, this group has earned an average 792 Kred score and has collectively amassed an impressive 628K Twitter followers).

To shine an inclusive spotlight on the people driving the conference’s social conversion, we’re sharing the #CMW Twitter List: 

Twitter List of 50 Top #CMWorld Insiders

For your convenience, we segment the list into speakers and attendees. We hope you find this list useful as you prepare to be a successful networker at Content Marketing World this year.
