"Circle Saturday" started by +Mike Mueller is a great concept and inspired me to make some weekly recommendations for folks I have admired since day one in my social media experience. So here are my peeps to mention ~ and you really should follow them. It's a learning experience from each and every one. I have many friends you will see in other's streams, so don't miss following these folks. So I will start with others you may not know just yet.
+Jim Hunt in Tallahassee - we met at my 1st Tweetup - before I knew what the heck Twitter really was,.. and has been a marketing mentor for me since. He is an expert, part of the "Positive Posse" and a great friend.
+Lucas VanSickle in Tallahassee - Lucas came to my first social media class, and has become a great friend. He is an artist and has been involved in my Art and Open House Events helping me showcase beautiful homes here and allowing me to help expose his artwork to the public..check out his website.
+Staci J. Shelton Cleveland, OH -Ahh,..a beautiful person inside and out, and I found her via Jim Hunt.. and I am always delighted to read her posts, Twitter stream, etc. Her husband Eriq Troi is a musician and they are beautiful people. Love her!
+Amy Cesario Denver, CO - Amy is a Realtor in Denver and is a personal and professional inspiration. We've connected on social media almost 2.5 years ago and met face to face in Orlando at the REBarCamp Orlando - love at first glance for a friend I will have always. Smart as whip - check out her blog, WOW!
+Diane Guercio Shirley, MA Realtor/Social Media expert in every dimension. Although mentioned by others, I just can't leave her out. Diane was my very first Twitter Real Estate contact...She has mentored me in more ways than one. Constantly supplied me with laughs, tears and more information on social media than anyone I know. Her friendship means more to me than ever, and again after 2.5 years, we met face to face in August and it was like I'd known her all my life.
+Jeff Turner Santa Clarita, CA Jeff was the first social media speaker I really connected with. I met Jeff in Atlanta when he spoke at RETchSouth, and admittingly, I'm a stalker, a groupie, a fan, a zeek geek.. whatever you want to call it, but it goes without saying that I think the man and his family are the best. The reality is, that I trust him. I trust, I admire, and I can take what he says, study on it, and it profoudly has affected how I relate to others and connect to others in social median and in life.
I'm really proud of my six recommendations... Just follow them, you will see what I mean! Can't wait till next Saturday!
