The Truth about Twitter Growth
Legends Only Creator Newsletter Issue #3
Happy Friday Legends!What a wild week for me. I got hit by covid. It was not that bad but I was forced to stay in bed for 4 days straight. What happens when you stay in bed for 4 days? Right. You are a lot on Twitter. That resulted in another Shadowban for me. Wonderful. I hope your week went slightly better than mine. Anyway, let's get into today's Newsletter.

The Truth about Twitter Growth
I can tell you now all the "secrets" about my growth. But to be honest? You know this all. It got written in hundred of threads on Twitter. I'm here to tell you: There are no growth hacks. I grew 1000 followers in 25 days because I showed up every day, I created helpful content, and I engaged all day. The start of the Legends Only Community is probably a big factor too. But the main growth goes back to my activity. You get what you give, and it's true.Everything started to change when I focused on real connections. I show interest in other people's work. (I really read it) I try to help where I can and I expect nothing in return.This mindset makes the Twitter journey fun and easy because you don't focus on numbers or how fast you grow. You focus on real connections. And those real connections engage with your content. Another big factor for my rapid growth where "viral" Tweets. I wrote some tweets who gained me 200-300 followers in a few hours. Being yourself and having your voice is what people want to see. If you drop just actionable advice all day like a robot, people are thankful. But if you add your personal note to it, you attract people who like you. Show some vulnerability from time to time. Be honest. And share your wins & failures. Every tweet you send out connects you deeper with your audience. My main tips to grow on Twitter:- Show up every day. - Be kind and helpful.- Be yourself and honest.- Make deep connections, and show interest in other's.- Create engaging quality content. (No platitudes or motivational quotes.)Do this for a year and there is no way that you don't grow on Twitter.Now with 1000+ followers my gameplan changes. The hardcore engaging phase has led to 2 shadowbans for me. One is still active as I write this. I will now focus more on the Newsletter and on quality content like Threads. I got my audience now. They engage with me. Now It's time to provide as much value as possible and keep growing this community.You see, you know everything you need to know to grow on Twitter. It's up to you if you are willing to put the work in. You don't need to make 1000 followers in 25 days. Go at your own speed. Showing up every day and proper networking is the key to success on Twitter.No shortcuts, no hacks. That's might not be a sexy solution, but the results are.As a member of the Legends Community, you are in the best place to build a solid network. Everyone in this community got the same goal. Let's reach it together my friends.
