Method to the Mayhem

Thank you Melonie Gallegos from Brands with Fans for featuring me in her blog post, "Think Outside the Blog, How To Find Hidden Influence."

The post is about Influencer Outreach and thinking outside the box in finding influencers. How you might be overlooking influence in other channels. Social influence is everywhere from Twitter to Pinterest. Marketing is becoming more visual, you might be surprised how much impact a single photo may have.

In 2010, Calvin Lee @MayhemStudios was called a "Twitter Marketing Phenomenon" by Forbes. While he has a blog, it wasn’t blogging that made him famous. He’s kind of a big deal on Twitter, Instagram and other social networks. 

Calvin is sought after by major consumer brands to try their products and spread the word to his 82,000+ followers. Why so influential you might wonder? It’s not that complicated.  

He’s genuinely an all around nice guy whom people trust and who loves sharing. Trust is a key ingredient.
