POULSBO — Nancy Williams, vice president of community relations at Cloud Services Depot, was voted one of the world’s top 150 IT influencers, or advisers, for professionals who serve small- and medium-sized businesses.

It’s the second consecutive year she was named to the list, known as the SMB 150; SMB is the abbreviation for Small Medium Business. The SMB 150 was founded by SMB Nation, provider of seminars for IT consultants; and SMB Technology Network, an association of IT providers.

There’s a definite sense of satisfaction in knowing that I’ve become very successful in this industry.”
