 Ideas and social media innovation by @EvanKirstel
 
 
 
Social Business has been a personal passion for years, as I've grown my personal social networks, while helping dozens of clients grow from zero to tens of thousand of engaged followers. A B2B tech influencer with 200K Twitter, 20K LinkedIn and 100K Instagram followers, I can help you massively grow your social audience and leverage social media as a B2B sales networking, lead generation and thought leadership tool.

I am an internationally recognized thought leader and social media influencer in IoT (#1 in 2017), Cloud, Data Security (2016), Health Tech (#9 in 2017), Digital Health (#6 in 2016), B2B Marketing (#5 in 2015), AI, Smart Home, Digital (2017), IIoT (#1 in 2017) and Telecom/Wireless/5G. My connections are a "Who's Who" in these technologies, I am in the top 10 most mentioned/re-tweeted by CMOs and CIOs (2016) and have been recently named 5th most influential B2B marketeer in the US. My social media “Klout"​ score is 81 and rising!

With 25+ years of sales, alliances and biz dev experience in Telecom and IT, I bring a unique perspective on opportunities in the Unified Communications & Collaboration landscape, including deep knowledge of social, mobile, and the voice/video/web collaboration market and cloud technology.

I am a member of Influencer Marketing programs at Huawei, IBM and Dell EMC. My clients include CenturyLink, GENBAND, Ericsson, West Corp, Broadsoft, Xactly, 128 Technology, Qualcomm, Panasonic and many others.

Engagement via social media requires patience and commitment, and by working together we can engage new B2B prospects and business partners by adding 1000+ new, relevant social media followers per month. The combination of my social media influence, social business know-how and passion for sales networking will help you drive visibility and engagement with influencers, customers, analysts, journalists, CXOs et al, while cutting through the noise to generate leads and set up tomorrow's sale.

Here are just some examples of services we can provide you through my network of B2B influencers and collaborators:

TESTIMONIALS

  • Evan Kirstel is an extremely creative business development professional who worked on my team during the rapid growth of Acme Packet prior to its sale to Oracle in 2013. He built strong relationships with the global partners he managed that led to success for both the partners and Acme Packet. He possesses the perfect blend of business savvy and technical acumen to build winning partnerships. During his time on my team he identified and became expert in the use of social media for the purpose of building partnerships in the new economy. He has leveraged that expertise into a growing consultancy and I recommend him highly.

  • Evan worked in my team for more than 4 years, growing AudioCodes largest partner from almost nothing to more than $10M during that time. Evan was very successful not just expanding our business, but also establishing AudioCodes a preferred partner, while building trust and relationships at all levels of that partner. Evan is a very smart sales and business development executive, with deep understanding of technology, market trends, and customer needs, with the ability to translate all that into successful business initiatives that lead to increased revenue and market share. I wholeheartedly recommend Evan. He will make significant contributions to any organization he decides to join.

  • We worked together @ HSS/FSS, where Evan was handling East Coast sales and I was representing our company's SIP product line. Evan has a good mix of business and technical skills and can stand his own ground in front of customers. I appreciated his no-nonsense approach and enjoyed the time we worked together. Besides being a good corporate citizen, he is also a great guy to hang around with.

  • Evan has taken social media to the next level. Growing from a few thousand to more than 75,000 and more everyday, Evan has become one of the top social media “influencers” by a number of leading social media publications. He is agile, persistence and responsive by increasing and curating client content to gain and retain followers. His new initiative TweetMeets integrates social media marketing with sales/revenue lead generation driving ROI higher. I would strongly recommend Evan for any business development, revenue and/or social media marketing effort.
