Networking on Twitter

\thread
Twitter is fun for the memes, the shitposting, and the crazy stuff people post

But few people understand that Twitter is more than a shitposting site

Twitter is the ultimate Networking platform

Use this platform correctly, and it can change the course of your career forever
You can network:

1. Upward
2. Downward
3. Laterally

Let's dissect each of them.
1. Networking Upward

Interact with larger accounts and people who are years ahead of you

Reply to their tweets in a smart way – don't paraphrase their ideas

Try to get their attention on the DMs

Maybe they'll follow you

Maybe they won't

But you won't know unless you try
Smart Ways To Network Upward

>> Write a thread about things you've learned from the person

>> Summarize a recent podcast

>> Post a thread with your favorite tweets and say why you liked it

>> Send a DM saying thanks and expressing how their content has improved your life
2. Network Downward

Engage and interact with smaller accounts.

They're usually your followers.

Connect with them.

And treat them well.

I mean, they're the ones retweeting you and sharing your ideas with others. Pay it forward.
Smart Ways To Network Downward

>> DM your most engaged followers to say thanks

>> Retweet their tweets (even if you don't follow them)

>> Like and reply to their replies

>> Ask them what they would love to learn from you on the DMs
3. Network Laterally

Build relationships with accounts of similar size of followers.

Connect with people in your industry.

Build a network of like-minded individuals.

They're the ones who will help you throughout your journey.
Smart Ways To Network Laterally

>> Take the relationship outside of Twitter (Telegram, Whatsapp, Real Life, Zoom Calls)

>> Build products together

>> Have weekly, bi-weekly, or month mastermind calls

>> Connect over direct message more than in the timeline
Use Twitter correctly, and it can change the course of your career forever.

5 Brutal Truths About Digital Products:
# 1. Nobody cares about the quality of the videos

What's actually important is the quality of the information and audio.

The best courses I've purchased are lacking in the animation and design departments.
However, they excelled in delivering on the promise they made and their audio quality is pristine.

When it comes down to it, solving a problem is what will get you the sale in the end.

Starting out is easy.

The hardest part is staying consistent.

Here are 7 ways to be outrageously consistent at anything.

\thread
1. Work on something you love

Why waste your time doing things you hate?

Screw that.

If it doesn't excite you, move on.
2. Start small

Even if you love what you do, staying consistent is tough business.

For this reason, think about how you can get the maximum results with the lowest amount of effort.

Let's say you want to post your ideas online.

Start by posting 200-500 words every day.

Steal these 6 Steps I Took to Quit My Job:
I remember telling my wife about my decision to quit my job.

She was pregnant with our second son.

Imagine her shock.

While I’m not the ultimate business person in the world, I hope these 6 steps I’m about to tell inspire you to take action.

Onward!
Step 1: Learn A Skill

I studied graphic design at college.

I soon realized companies in the Dominican Republic didn't pay designers well.

So learned web design and web development, which paid more back then and still does.

Started with HTML and CSS.

Always read the comments section.

The anecdotes give you insights into people's problems, needs, what they believe, what they want, their stories, dreams, hindrances, worries, and mental barriers.

You’ll also find specific questions you’ve never thought of, and much more.
Check this out.

Let's say someone wrote this:

“Writing content that sells costs time and a lot of money.”

Ask yourself, what technical problems do these people have?

From it, I can extract two problems:
Problem #1: Writing content that sells is expensive (lack of money).

Problem #2: Writing content that sells takes time (lack of time, time-consuming, takes too long).

8 Lessons Of Selling 10K Copies Of Digital Products

And how you can use them to get your first sale

\thread
1. Stop pressuring yourself

Everything will turn out fine.

The worst thing that can happen is not making a lot of money.

No matter what, you can always repurpose the content in your digital product for other projects.
2. "Build it and they'll come" is fake news

Your best product will be a flop if your marketing sucks.

How you promote your digital product is as important as the product itself.

Talk about your product. A lot.

Show the world you have you can solve some of their problems.
