Sonny Gill’s Summary

I'm an experienced online marketer that has a passion for the social media and digital marketing world. In the past 4 years, I've developed integrated social media strategies for large corporations, startups and virtual companies.

What is my focus in the social media space? To help companies grow their business by helping them better connect and communicate with their customers and untapped online communities. These strategies have influenced internal & external evangelists, community engagement, website activity, brand recognition, and positive word of mouth.

As fast as Social Media is evolving, I stay up to the challenge through constant content creation on my blog, www.sonnygill.com, maintaining an active presence and focus on building communities within several social sites, and developing/growing relationships with industry leading bloggers.
