6/9) Create unique content

Everyone who engages is now an inbound lead.

Linkedin’s algos are hot right now.

They favor creators over consumers.

It’s harder to compete on Twitter.
7/9) Ask your network, and mutual followers/connections.

- Underrated. You'd be surprised how many referrals you can get from people you already know and trust.

- Referrals are the best leads because they TRUST you.
8/9) Collabs

Create content with similar founders in your space

Give free advice.

Be an aggregator of content in your space.

Position yourself as the "King Maker" of your niche!
9/9) Scrapy bird 🐦

- Scrape B2B emails from Twitter
- Scrape who follows your competitors...

"Hey - saw you follower XXXX on Twitter"

- Are you cheaper, faster, etc.? Call this out.
