I have been thinking a lot about influencers and I really would question the point of who is an influencer. Some of the people you list here have a ton of followers and lots of people try and get their attention. Lots of people listen to them so I guess that makes them an influencer? To me some of these are really just an amplifier. The approach to a thought leader vs an amplifier are 2 different things. I think that you really have to understand who these people are and what they are after to really understand how to engage them.

It was not possible to read all here. After the few answers I read, I would state: “Don’t try to get THEIR attention”, because or they will read me (and maybe spread my message), because I have to say anything, what interests them, or they will not.

The worst, what I could do is to chump up…

So I stay calm and don’t “make me my head hot” (as we say in Germany) in this question, but take this energy to do my business. As it is good and unique, it will flourish anyway.

This is a great post.
Jeff Dachis’s presentation for SBS2011 yesterday said “twitter is a theatre” and at that time I was thinking, if only we could figure out a way to approach each of these influencers in their own unique preferred ways and I landed up here. – even more awesome because I actually follow all these influencers including yourself. Thanks!
