1/ Hijack a super-powered timeline
turn on post notifications for someone big in your niche. For MB that person is @elonmusk
each time they tweet, be one of the first to respond
this interaction below got 300K+ impressions

2/ Double down on "voice" in comments section
MB has a very specific voice
on twitter, i wanted to turn that voice up a couple of notches
in twitter responses i turned it up even more
this thread was unfiltered MB at its best https://twitter.com/MorningBrew/status/1260706318551339016?s=20">https://twitter.com/MorningBr...

3/ When it comes to memes, invest in tools
memes look hastily assembled by nature but the right software helps a lot

4/ Always be borrowing
i follow video aggregator accounts like @30SECVIDEOS and @RexChapman
i pull videos from their accounts and caption it to make it relevant to the MB audience

5/ Interact with power followers

got a RT and tons of exposure

6/ Never use emojis
just don& #39;t.
they never make a tweet better and almost always make it worse
plus the data backs it up: only 2 of our top 25 tweets contained emojis

7/ For giveaways, low lift is better
look at what was asked of people in each tweet and its clear which giveaway was going to get more interactions
(also emoji& #39;s in giveaways are okay in my book)

8/ Build a community
the easiest way to do that is to create a visual identity
@andrewyang did this with the

im working on doing this with the "

when you run into another

9/ When it comes to the hard stuff, be genuine
im inexperienced handling important topics like the BLM protests
so i leaned heavily on @MorningBrew leadership for guidance
there is no right answer so we just did what felt truest to what we believed in as a company

10/ Go super viral
there& #39;s no secret sauce
just throw enough darts
without as much accuracy as you can muster
and eventually you& #39;ll hit the bullseye
bullseye=1 million impressions https://twitter.com/MorningBrew/status/1265321405786308608?s=20">https://twitter.com/MorningBr...
