Chris Brogan

Nato: April 01, 1970 – Waterville, Maine, United States

Chris Brogan is an American author, speaker, and business adviser who writes about social media, marketing, entrepreneurship, and community building. He coauthored the New York Times bestseller Trust Agents and wrote The Impact Equation and The Freaks Shall Inherit the Earth, influencing how businesses use digital relationships and personal branding.

Biografia e Percorso dell'Autore

Chris Brogan grew up in Maine and later made northern Massachusetts home. Long before he became widely known as an author and speaker, he spent about sixteen years in telecommunications and wireless technology, and publisher bios describe him as someone who had already been active in online communities since the bulletin-board era. His decisive turn came in 2006, when he co-founded PodCamp and began moving from telecom into community events, digital strategy, and social-media consulting. He had been blogging since 1998, and as the social web matured, chrisbrogan.com became one of the most visible marketing blogs of its generation, reaching the upper ranks of Ad Age’s Power 150 and turning Brogan into a recognizable interpreter of how people and companies could communicate online.
