Nothing says \*love\* quite like a highly produced network reality series where 25+ women duke it out for the chance to maybe get married to one lucky dude, or in the case of this season of The Bachelor, one lucky pilot. Perhaps the only love greater than that between Pilot Pete and whoever the heck he decides to pick at the end of this season, is my love of intellectualizing and overstating the cultural importance of The Bachelor (something I’ve been known to do in SparkPost’s internal #bachelor-nation slack channel), but enough about me!  Over the franchise’s collective 44 seasons (including spin-offs), Bachelor Nation has seen an overwhelming increase in the amount of contestants that go on to become some of the most prolific social media influencers in the world!  In honor of the **most romantic** show of our time and of course Valentine’s Day, we wanted to hand out a few roses to some of our favorite email influencers out there! While they may not have as many followers as [Ashley I](https://www.instagram.com/ashley_iaconetti/?hl=en) or [Hannah B](https://www.instagram.com/hannahbrown/?hl=en), these certified #emailgeeks have won our hearts with their amazing social media accounts! Check out which Email Influencers we’re giving our roses to this Valentine’s Day: [**Anne Tomlin**](https://twitter.com/pompeii79) Responsive Email Developer and Founder of [Emails Y’all](http://www.emailsyall.com/), Anne Tomlin, kills us every time with her pop-culturally relevant knee slappers. > So you're some tough code > Like to make it rough code > Just can't get enough code > > always so puffed code > I'm that bad type > Make your font monotype > Make your mad tight > Might render Outlook type > I'm the bad dev. > DUH> > — Anne Tomlin (@pompeii79) [January 7, 2020](https://twitter.com/pompeii79/status/1214614318282608641?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) [**John Thies**](https://twitter.com/johnethies) CEO and Co-founder of [Email on Acid](https://www.emailonacid.com/), John Thies,  shares his email expertise by participating in his company’s twitter chats. > A1: Inbox display is the first thing a subscriber see's when looking at your email in the inbox (subject, from name, preheader).
