Consider yourself an influencer or thinking about becoming one in your space? You NEED to listen to this episode filled with strategies on how to be an influencer.

Brittany Hennessy is the author of INFLUENCER: Building Your Brand in the Age of Social Media, the first-ever Senior Director of Influencer Strategy & Talent Partnerships for Hearst Magazines Digital Media, and the co-founder of Carbon.

In 2007, after graduating from Rutgers University with a degree in journalism, Brittany created ChiChi212.com, which was nominated by Paper Magazine for “Best Nightlife Blog,” and became an influencer for Bacardi, Popchips, Svedka, and the Gap.
