A Twitter audience is a massive asset.

I& #39;ve added 37,196 followers in just 14 weeks.

Here are the 7 simple things I did:

1/ Built my publishing habit

In late October, I committed to publishing daily on Twitter.

I started with a "Happy {Day} to X" Tweet each AM.

I had 2 simple goals:

1. Build a habit of posting each day.
2. Put my name & face in front of people daily. https://twitter.com/JustinSaaS/status/1470384539189059589">https://twitter.com/JustinSaa...
2/ An educational tweet each PM

Each afternoon, I share a lesson from my solopreneur journey.

Topics include:

- Audience growth
- Service businesses
- Building info products
- Using social media effectively

I pretend I& #39;m writing to help ONE person. https://twitter.com/JustinSaaS/status/1482035574152347653">https://twitter.com/JustinSaa...
3/ A step-by-step thread once weekly

Weekly threads power my growth.

I gained thousands of followers by sharing detailed threads.

My goal is to walk someone step-by-step through something critical in solopreneurship. https://twitter.com/JustinSaaS/status/1486473719723831306">https://twitter.com/JustinSaa...
4/ Engage with 5-8 interesting people each week

Make it a habit to build connections.

Here are some smart folks I& #39;ve chatted with, just to jam out:

@ecomchasedimond
@JamesonCamp
@Nicolascole77
@OneJKMolina
@TheDanKoe
@dickiebush
@landforce
@aaditsh

It& #39;s "social" media.
5/ Comment underneath large accounts

One of the best ways to gain visibility here is to participate.

- Find interesting, large accounts
- Set up automatic notifications
- Read each of their Tweets
- Add valuable comments
- Engage

It& #39;s literally that easy.
6/ Eliminated the "touch base" Tweets

After 90 days, I had a publishing habit.

So I stopped the daily, "Happy Weekday" AM posts.

They weren& #39;t adding much value.

I started writing entertaining content or 2x& #39;ing educational Tweets. https://twitter.com/JustinSaaS/status/1485604832669061125">https://twitter.com/JustinSaa...
7/ Improved my "inspiration" swipe file

Writing a lot of Tweets means constantly being inspired.

Here are the tools I use to find that inspiration:

@hypefury (Tweet templates)
@TwemexApp (User& #39;s best Tweets)
@typeshare_co (Thread templates)
@TwitterBlue (bookmark fave Tweets)
And that& #39;s it.

TL;DR

1/ Built publishing habit in the AM
2/ Educated my audience each PM
3/ A step-by-step thread once weekly
4/ Engage with 5-8 people in my niche each week
5/ Commented underneath large accounts
6/ Eliminated what wasn& #39;t working
7/ Setup inspiration tools
I hope you found this thread valuable.
