And for that, it’s time we created the Sprout Social Insights Wall of Fame. As Managing Editor of Sprout Social Insights, it is my pleasure to introduce to you our inaugural Wall of Famer - Aaron Lee!

Hi Dan,

Cool idea!

Aaron has some heady twitter numbers. Starting his handle with "ask" definitely creates an engaging social experience, and that's a big reason why he has 167,000 followers in 2 years.

Engaging and sharing content on social networks expands your presence like nothing else. If you want to grow, help others grow, and do this without any strings attached.

Thanks for sharing Dan!

I meant "Don", time for some sleep ;)

Aaron,

What are the best social media tactics to promote a product or service rather than to build a community?

Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

Alan

Now I know why you name is Don POWER, you have the POWER to create SMILES

Thank you Alaia, big thanks to Don for that.

Aaron is one amazing person to follow via twitter and on his blog. He offers some amazing content that can not be found anywhere else and I truly enjoy what he says and the work & research that he puts in his blog posts as well. He is one of the best people that I say I will continue to follow.

Thank you so much for the all the kind words here and on your blog few weeks ago Justice. Big thanks for the comments that you leave on my blog too! Appreciate the support and the friendship mate. Cheers!

I completely agree Justice. I'd love to see Aaron do the North American speaking circuit. he would definitely be a big draw and I"d pay to see him headline at a social media conference!

Any conference organizers listening ;)

Thanks for your comment Justice and thanks for being a vibrant part of the Sprout Social Insights community!

Thank you once again for the wall of fame and the comment Don.

Dear Don,

I would like to thank you so much for the wall of fame, its truly an honor and I appreciate it. Thank you for saying nice things about me as well as recommending your readers and loyal followers to reach out to me. I have a few connecting with me earlier thanks to you.

When I heard you were having a wall of fame, never in a million years would I think I'll be in it. Now I feel the pressure to perform! haha!

You have just made my day! Smiling from ear to ear now. Glad we were able to connect with each other. Thanks for the friendship Don.

Cheers and have a great day!
Aaron

It truly is our pleasure Aaron. I knew you and your name when I first started blogging. You were a well known entity in the blogging world back then.

You've come so far and yet the real beauty of what you do is how much of your tine is devoted to sharing and promoting others. We are happy to give this back to you in this small gesture - and it really is cool that it brought a smile to you.

What more could anyone ask for in a blog post ;)

- Don

Thank you Don, I never knew you knew me when you started blogging back then. I just started blogging in 2010 and it was a privilege to learn so much from others who shared great information like you.

I have to thank so many people on twitter for that as they took the time to guide me. :)

Big thanks!
