Who are the top startup marketers you follow that help you scale your startup?

Hey Indie Hackers,

I'm a marketer, and I have a lot of experience scaling up starting companies. I always look for the latest trends and techniques, so I've decided to ask you: if you follow any good marketers \ growth - hackers that help you grow your startups in 2019.

My questions are quite simple:

#1. Who do you follow?
#2. What are your favorite blogs \ websites \ podcasts about growing your company?

    Since reading his book, Company of One, I've been closely following Paul Jarvis (@pjrvs). Love how he talks about manageable and favorable growth.

    I admire the following folks who built solid (and sometimes very small) organizations:

    • Joel Gascoigne of Buffer
    • Jason Fried and DHH of Basecamp
    • Peldi of Balsamiq
    • Sahil of Gumroad
    • Nathan Barry of ConvertKit

      Thanks,

      I also love Jason Fried of Basecamp.

      I've been using ConvertKit, didn't know they had a cool founder that shares marketing advice.

      Thanks!

    I've been enjoying the podcast Everyone Hates Marketers, https://everyonehatesmarketers.com/podcast/

    I'm a tech guy so the information I get from the podcast is very helpful.

      Hey guys,

      I listen to Mixergy, and it is pretty cool, but...

      What do you like about this podcast so much?

      1. 2

        The host seems really honest and has a dislike for shady marketing strategies/tactics. The guests have good advice on marketing in general. I don't know much in the marketing area so the information is super helpful.

    Marketing School podcast is practical, short and handy.
    Always like Seth Godin to help inspire me.
    Tara Hunt produces some good stuff (videos and podcast)
