From being extraordinarily great at SEO to building social media communities and rapidly progressing in their careers, female marketers have been leading the way in 2021. Company directors, freelancers, full-time marketers, and side hustlers alike, we’ve found 2021 to be a year of female domination in the marketing world.
And now we’ve created a list of the top 22 female marketers to follow in 2022.
These women are shaping the marketing industry and they deserve much more credit than they currently get. We hope that with these incredibly skilled marketers gracing your social media feeds, 2022 will become a year that we can start to embrace and celebrate female marketers together.
Note: this is by no means a full or comprehensive list, nor is it in any particular order.
