If you’re a social media marketer or anyone trying to grow with organic social, Tommy is your go-to person.

Hey, some exciting news...
I'm teaming up with @workweekinc as a creator to continue growing my brand, Social Files 🗃
My goal?
To build the resource I wish I had when I was getting started in social and content creation 4 years ago...
But first, a story:
Tracey gets it. If you’re a b2b SaaS co building out a media arm, read her take below!
A lot of content marketing folks talk about building a “media company” for their orgs. I used to, too.
But I haven’t seen a media model generate revenue for a B2B brand.

Another awesome opportunity for anyone in Fintech to come hang out with Nicole and meet other great fintech leaders.
Who's ready for a cocktail?
I’m hosting a Fintech Community/Networking Happy Hour on July 20 in Manhattan.
Drinks on me.
