12 Marketing Twitter Accounts to Follow in 2025
Want to see what the brightest minds in marketing are talking about? Marketing Twitter (now called X) is the best place to hear straight from founders, CMOs, and other marketers.
But here’s the problem: while nearly every prominent marketer has a Twitter account, the quality of insights varies widely. Some people post mind-bending Twitter threads that change the way you look at marketing; others just retweet (I think its called repost now) their company account.
To help cut through the noise, I rounded up the most engaging and insightful marketing accounts on Twitter. From breaking down viral campaigns to teaching copywriting essentials, these 12 accounts provide a steady stream of marketing value.
The Best Marketing Twitter Accounts
Social Media

What They Tweet About:
Social media marketing and influencer marketing. Jack’s most epic tweets are breakdowns (and sometimes takedowns) of successful social media and influencer marketing campaigns.
Popular tweets include a breakdown of a Dunkin Donuts Superbowl ad campaign, a reflection on Snapchat’s social media philosophy, and an analysis of Duolingo’s social media strategy.
Best Tweet:
Jack is a must-follow for social media marketers: no one is better at picking apart the subtleties of brand social media management. In this case study, he lays out how Xbox responded effectively and nimbly to a major leak: first with a meme, then with an informal acknowledgement, and finally with an official launch video the next day. (Here’s the full thread).
Marketing Strategy
Summary:
Katelyn Bourgoin (@KateBour) focuses on the buyer psychology side of marketing strategy. She’s been called an "influential entrepreneur" by Forbes and named one of the "top 20 wonder women of SaaS marketing and growth."

What They Tweet About:
Marketing, content marketing, and audience research.
Best Tweet:
Amanda coined the term “Zero-Click Content” to describe how content marketers should operate on social media platforms in the 2020s. Including outbound links in social content isn’t the right strategy for most brands anymore, since social platforms tend to throttle those posts. Instead, effective content marketing looks a lot more like brand-building and relationship-building. (Read the full thread here).

How to Get the Most Out of Marketing Twitter
From cultivating your feed to engaging with thought leaders, here’s how to get the most out of your experience on the marketing resource called X (or Twitter, whichever you prefer).
1. Follow the Right Accounts
If you’re not happy with the quality of your feed, it might be time for a Twitter cleanse. First, follow everyone on this article. Then, take a look at your feed and start unfollowing accounts that aren’t giving you what you’re looking for.
Moving forward, keep an eye out for interesting posts relevant to your industry, competitors, influencers, and potential customers. Tap into those conversations and follow those accounts to continue shaping your Twitter feed into a marketing education machine.
2. Be Authentic
Professional posturing? Keep that for LinkedIn. Twitter is a place for genuine engagement and personality. Share your authentic thoughts, respond casually, and don't be afraid to show some humor. Sure, you’ve heard the advice to “be authentic” on social media before—but the reason it continues to have real power is that most people aren’t following it.
For example, Amanda Natividad mostly dishes out marketing tips, but she also talks about her family and marketing-adjacent topics like testing out the Apple Vision Pro.
3. Add Value
The temptation on social media is to wonder what value you can extract from others. But if you do that, you’re playing the wrong game: the people who are most successful on Twitter are the ones who give generously.
Reply to tweets that are interesting to you and do things that add value: give your own marketing career advice, share your experience, add a different perspective or an interesting statistic. The people you follow will appreciate you boosting engagement on their content; over time, they’ll start to recognize your name, and you may even develop an online rapport.
4. Take Interesting Conversations to the DMs
Direct messages are not usually the best place to start a professional interaction; my Twitter inbox is full of messages from people I don’t know who are trying to sell me something. You definitely don’t want that to be you.
But as you develop rapport with fellow marketers on Twitter over time, look for opportunities to continue the conversation over DM. Don't ask for anything—just mention you love their content, thank them for creating it, or share any experience or perspectives that might be relevant to them.
5. Follow Your Favorite Marketers Off-Platform, Too
Most prominent creators put their spiciest takes on Twitter—but since it’s a short-form platform, they put their most in-depth work elsewhere. Make sure you dive deeper with whoever resonates with you: subscribe to their podcast, read their blog, buy their book, or join their community and surround yourself with like-minded people.
Create Your Own Marketing Edge on Twitter
Marketing Twitter is full of founders, CEOs, and marketers to learn from—but it’s up to you to cultivate a feed that inspires you. Unfollow or mute any accounts that aren’t providing regular value, and start following (and engaging with) marketers who are providing genuine value. Who knows: maybe soon, you’ll be creating a viral marketing thread of your own.
