Maybe it's my algorithm, but a few weeks ago, I realized that almost every marketing thought leader on here falls into one of two categories: a) They work in MarTech and market to marketers/sales teams. b) They have an agency that is targeted towards helping marketers (aka they're marketing to marketers). I'm not sure how we got here. Is it because we're conflating working at a brand we recognize as having inherent expertise/mastery? Is it because marketers who work in martech/agencies have really bought into the idea that people buy from (personal) brands they like and that's why there's an over representation? Is it just my algorithm? As someone who markets to a very different vertical, I'm realizing that the tactics/thoughts being espoused don't always align with what works for my vertical. (My product is geared toward professional service firms). I'm also realizing that a lot of the thought leadership that is shared here gets super repetitive super quickly. While it is true that some marketing fundamentals are tried and true across every vertical, I, for one, would like to see more diversity in people sharing their expertise. And so, I'm starting a project to do just that. (Coming soon.) In the interim, I'd like to know: are there any marketers who don't market to marketers that you like and are worth a follow? #marketing #b2bmarketing #thoughtleadership #linkedinthoughtleaders

It feels like the pressure from the algo to post daily limits what you see to people who have a lot of raw content to share (agencies and marketing companies). Most people who market to different verticals don't have the depth of content to support that posting schedule. I would love to see more diversity in my feed as well, so hoping to get some recommendations here.

Christine, could be your algorithmic feed is biased toward who you seem to be "like." It does that. You may already know many of these names, but some folks I like to follow include: Andy Raskin April Dunford Hank Barnes Tito 🚀 Bohrt - Sales Mad Scientist Josh Braun Chris Walker Finn Thormeier Kerry Cunningham Nicole Leffer Peep Laja Sara Stella Lattanzio Megan Bowen Sidney Waterfall Brent Adamson 🤏 Pavlo Cherniakov I've learned a lot from each of them.
