If you're looking to get a bigger Twitter audience and spend less time on Twitter, I'm about to share the biggest potential pitfall you'll want to avoid at all costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The best way to grow your email list on Twitter is if you\u2019re not using the Twitter app.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n You want to avoid distractions and focus on engaging in conversations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n That's how you get eyes on your profiles and respectively get people to sign up for your email list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Let me explain\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n My profile isn\u2019t big by any standard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I barely have over 2000 followers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Yet, what you're about to learn let me add roughly 350 followers in the past two months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The last time I did that, it took me eight months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I got to the same goal 4x faster... and the growth only accelerates with time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \ud83d\uded1 Here\u2019s why you want to avoid the Twitter app:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Twitter app is a roadblock because it's designed for consuming content\u2014not creating it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n When you're trying to quickly build an engaged following, you need to be focused on creating quality content and - most importantly - interacting with other Twitter users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You don\u2019t have time to get sucked into random arguments on Twitter or to scroll through your feed aimlessly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Twitter's ultimate goal is to keep you on its platform as long as it can. <\/p>\n\n\n\n They don't want you to spend less time on Twitter but to be on Twitter all day every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Any algorithm in social media is designed to capture and keep our attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Have you ever tried watching just ONE YouTube Short or Facebook Reel? <\/p>\n\n\n\n Forget it... you don't have a snowball's chance in hell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Let me explain how their algorithms combat your desire to spend less time on Twitter (or other socials).<\/p>\n\n\n\n One of the most effective ways social platforms exploit us is by encouraging us to constantly compare ourselves to others. <\/p>\n\n\n\n We scroll through our feeds and see people living their best lives, which can make us feel inferior and not good enough. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This comparison game is dangerous because it leads to feelings of envy, resentment, and inadequacy. Remember, you only see a highlight reel of people's lives online \u2014 the reality is that everyone has their own struggles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Only compare yourself to who you were yesterday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To grow your audience, you need to strategically interact with relevant conversations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2714\ufe0f You need a focused way to monitor influencers in your niche and jump into their conversations.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n I love Hypefury<\/a> for its Engagement Builder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You simply add a handful of influencer profiles you want to build a relationship with and it\u2019ll show you their latest tweets in chronological order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I log in to Hypefury once a day and within 10 minutes, I contributed to at least 5-10 relevant conversations in my industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A free alternative would be to group those profiles in Twitter Lists and go through those lists - but that\u2019d only work in the native Twitter app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I encourage you to avoid the Twitter app as much as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Don\u2019t tempt yourself to look at the timeline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Your willpower is needed in more important situations in your business, not to avoid fighting social media algorithms that are designed to exploit human curiosity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you're struggling to get more followers on Twitter, don't tweet more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Instead, jump into conversations that already get a lot of attention and add meaningful comments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n Leveraging tools like Hypefury makes this (otherwise time-consuming) process super efficient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n receive my next emails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can always identify my emails with the \"\u270d\ufe0f\" in the beginning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Whenever you\u2019re ready, here are three ways I can help you:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n 1.
