I’m fascinated by Snapchat as a platform for engaging an audience with authentic video and photos that give a behind the scenes look of your life.
I’ve been playing around with it a lot personally. Follow me. I’m thorpus.
I’ve been keeping an eye out for people and brands that do it well. If you’re looking for people to follow, I recommend these.
Alton Brown (thealtonbrown) – The Food Network star, entertainer, and food educator shows a behind the scenes look as he crosses the country on his national tour.
Dan Berger (danjberger) – Dan is the head of one of the fastest growing DC startups Social Tables. Get an inside look at his day to day and see what it’s like to work at his company. Dan’s Snapchat is hands down the best recruiting tool for Social Tables. It makes me wanna work there.
Dogfish Head Brewery (dogfishbeer) – Get a behind the scenes look into the craft brewery that’s taking the world by storm.
Gary Vaynerchuk (garyvee) – The entrepreneurial Yoda and head of a leading social agency Gary shows the ins and outs of the hustle. Seeing the day to day makes me not want to be that kind of entrepreneur. I’m not cut out for the 18-20 hour day grind that he is. But it’s fascinating to watch.
The White House (whitehouse) – Get an inside look at the beloved institution on 1600 Pennsylvania Blvd. See different events. See them take trips. It really makes the White House look more boring than what you see on TV or watched on the TV show West Wing. But yet, it’s also fascinating.
What’s your Snapchat handle?
