Read on Twitter
I failed to build an audience 3x:
Instagram, TikTok and Twitter.
Then I tried Twitter again.
I grew from 0 → 3000 starting from ground zero.
Here's how I use Twitter and why

1/ Respect your audience
• Respect their time
• Respect their attention
Keep your tweets value-packed and as short as possible.

2/ Reply with value
Value can come in several different forms:
• Present a different perspective
• Enforce their point and backing with evidence
• Referring them to a link, book or external resource that could potentially add value to their life
Value → profile clicks

3/ DMs are gold
• Avoid templated messages
• Everyone actually checks their DMs
• Rule of thumb: provide value before you ever ask for something
Early on, I would DM new followers to connect with them on a personal level and learn more about them.
People appreciate this :)

4/ Build in public
• Share wins and losses
• Behind the scenes > result
• People like seeing the whole picture
I do this by sharing my analytics every week and updates on my life habits and work.

5/ Ask meaningful questions
• Questions that make them think
• Questions that build a community
• Questions that provide info for you
Questions do well in terms of engagement but also should provide value for your audience or yourself.
