With 255 million monthly active users and more than 500 million Tweets sent per day, Twitter is a noisy place. It’s not easy to find quality people to find, learn and grow from.
While lists do a great job of curating people around a number of topicsnothing quite beats a word of mouth recommendation.
As we prep for Social Fresh’s 15th social media conference in Orlando next month on July 16-18, we are pulling together some of our favorite tips, tricks, and research across several social networks.
We asked some of our speakers in previous years who is the one person who people should be following on Twitter, here are their responses:
1. Cori Mozillo
I’ll admit that I shouldn’t be crying in a Chipotle if they’ll admit they shouldn’t be playing “Fix You” by Coldplay.

DJ Waldow, @DJWaldow
Why? Cori is the real deal. Funny. Witty. Human. Tells it how she sees it. Oh, and wicked smart.
2. Charlene Li

We should take all the Chuck Norris lines as serious to realize we’re not as awesome as him and should keep our ego in check.
