One of the best parts of our Twitter chats is that each week our guest brings incredible knowledge to the chats. Berrak has been a part of the #CMWorld community online for some time, and we were just thrilled to see her at CMWorld 2017. You can find Berrak online via LinkedIn or Twitter. How many years does this make for you? How did your career lead you to content marketing? What is your biggest content marketing challenge? Where is one place in the world you’d like to visit? This is impossible to narrow down because the world is full of stories I’d love to explore and share. Who is someone you’d encourage to come to CMWorld 2017? We loved seeing you at CMWorld again this year, Berrak!
Our online community is a chatty bunch, and for that we are grateful. Even for the quieter weeks – which thankfully are few and far between – we can still count on a large gathering and fast-paced hour with some of the smartest content marketing practitioners on Tuesdays at 12pm Eastern for our #CMWorld Twitter chats. One of the best parts of our Twitter chats is that each week our guest brings incredible knowledge to the chats. Do you know what’s equally as great?

Berrak has been a part of the #CMWorld community online for some time, and we were just thrilled to see her at CMWorld 2017. I wonder if she’s sent in a submission in the CMWorld 2017 call for speakers?
