It’s been exactly 6 weeks since I published the Toronto Top 150 Influencers List, with promise then that I would be updating it. I’ve decided on a 6-8 week period of time in between updates. I’ve made a couple other changes as well; the hashtag from now on is #InfluencerTO, the reason for this is

You know… this ‘active’ social life thing is such a change for me. Back only a few months ago, you’d see me out maybe once or twice a month. Now it seems I’m out 3 or 4 times a week! It’s an oversaturation if you ask me…. who really needs that much of me? I
This blog post was mostly written three weeks ago, I’ve constantly revised it and even held back on posting it for a bit because I wanted to see where some pieces in the social media world were falling. But now seems like a good time to post it considering the conversations had last Wednesday at
Courvoisier sent me a package today… quite nicely put together too!
