My pre-post checklist:

1. Does it deliver an actionable tip or create emotion?

2. Does the first line grab attention as well as it can?

3. Does it end with impactful text that inspires action?

4. Is the formatting readable and attractive to look at?

Let’s break those down… 1. Does it deliver an actionable tip or create emotion?

Actionable tips deliver instant value and create trust.

Emotional posts resonate with people and make them engage.

All of your non-sales posts should do at least one of these things.

I make $1k+ per day as a writer.

Mostly on LinkedIn and Twitter.

But I was a C+ writer in school.

Here are 18 profitable writing tips that you won’t learn in an English class: Hook your reader immediately.

In school, your introduction is just one piece of your essay.

Online, your hook is the most important part - by far.

Put a lot of thought into making line 1 as interesting as possible.

LinkedIn is a money printer.

But most don’t use it right.

I made a list of 27 profitable LinkedIn strategies that almost nobody takes advantage of.

Steal them from me: Use LinkedIn search correctly.

One example:

- Search a term like “CMO”
- Click “people”
- Filter in a variety of ways
- Do personalized outreach
- Get clients/jobs/etc

You can also pay for premium if you want to make this system more efficient.

I make $800 a day on LinkedIn.

Key ingredients:

- Profitable niche

Here’s the full breakdown...

(So you can do something similar) 1. Profitable Niche

If you want to earn on LinkedIn, you need to appeal to a specific audience that has enough money to pay for your offers.

Examples: marketing agency owners, entrepreneurs in general, job seekers, and people who want to be healthier.

I thought ChatGPT writing was useless.

Then I learned how to craft prompts.

The secret?

Using it as an assistant, not a writer.

Steal my 7 most-used prompts: “I write about {niche}. Split that into 10 subtopics, then give me 10 blog post ideas for each subtopic.”

Result:

10 content baskets and 100 post ideas.

I’ve gotten over 1,000,000 followers for my clients.

I’ve also built my following to about 250,000.

Killer content is the engine that drives those results.

Steal my top 11 rules for social media writing: 1. Deliver Value

“Deliver value” is a vague, cliche term, so let’s be specific:

Make your reader better off than they were before they read your post. You can do so by inspiring them, teaching them, making them laugh, and a lot more.

I write over 100 posts per week for me and my clients.

Here are 7 free tools I use to never run out of ideas: 1. ChatGPT

I don’t like ChatGPT’s writing, but I love using it to brainstorm content ideas.

Ask it for general ideas, specific ideas, basic research on an idea you already have, famous quotes about your topic, and a lot more.

It took me 5 years to learn these 37 marketing lessons.

You can learn them in 5 minutes:

1. Pain and pleasure drive almost all purchases.
2. Insecurity is the root of most pains.
3. Addicts (soda, coffee, activities, etc) are the most profitable customers. 4. Most people only care about themselves.
5. Some people care about their loved ones too.
6. Almost nobody truly cares about anything else.
7. Fear of loss persuades more than hope of gain.
8. Perceived scarcity motivates action.

On February 13th, I posted a thread.

Since then, it has made me $12,000.

Here’s how (so you can do the same): First of all, here’s the thread.

But just reading it doesn’t tell you the whole story.

There are 5 crucial elements.

I’ll explain all of them below.

How content creators can save 10+ hours per week with artificial intelligence: 1. Idea Generation

Chatbots like ChatGPT generate ideas for you.

Ask for specific content ideas, then give feedback to get better ones if needed.

Tools like Tweet Hunter are also great for inspiration.

Use both to get as many good ideas as possible.

One of my ghostwriting clients gained 31,412 followers in 72 hours.

Here's how (so you can grow quickly too):

🧵 Quick notes:

1. These are not typical results, but you can still learn from them and use them to grow.

2. I’m going to be vague on the details because I don’t reveal my clients’ identities, but I’ll share useful general principles.

Let’s get into it…

I write 97 posts per week for me and my ghostwriting clients.

That means I create more content than almost any other person on earth.

Here are the 4 software tools I use to never run out of ideas:

🧵 1. Chatsonic from @WriteSonic

This is like ChatGPT but it never goes down due to overuse and was made specifically for writers.

I use it to get inspiration (e.g. “give me 20 marketing blog post ideas”) and research (e.g. “give me an example of loss aversion”).

Got 30 free minutes per day?

Then you can build a personal brand.

Just follow my 10-10-10 method:

🧵 I call this the “10-10-10 method” because you’re splitting your tasks into three blocks of 10 minutes.

You can do them sequentially or separately, depending on your schedule.

You can also scale those up to something like 30-20-30 if you have the time.

Let’s get into it…

In 2017, I was on food stamps because I couldn’t afford groceries.

In 2022, I earned over $300,000 as an online writer.

Here’s how you can do the same (but “make it” 5x faster):

🧵 1. Study The Craft

You have to get good at writing, obviously.

But you don’t have to be amazing.

Just read some foundational books, then practice for a couple months by doing hypothetical jobs or writing content for yourself.

I once gained 20,000 followers in 30 days, and it was the worst thing to ever happen to my personal brand.

Here’s why:

🧵 The quality and depth of your content create the quality and depth of your audience.

If it's surface-level, you'll attract the masses.

If it's deeper, you'll attract deep thinkers and high-ticket buyers.

I've built my personal brand to 185,000 followers and a $300k+/yr income.

It cost $0 to get started.

Now it costs about $150 a month.

Here's how to win big without spending big:

🧵 The first thing you need to realize is that you can build a nice (let’s say $100k-$3m/yr) online income without spending a dime.

That’s because you can sell things that cost either $0 and 0 seconds to reproduce, or things that take time to reproduce but no money.

I’ve made over $500,000 just from sending cold DMs and emails.

Follow these 10 cold outreach laws, and you can do the same:

🧵 1. You Don’t Matter

You matter a bit, of course.

But the “you don’t matter” mindset is extremely useful.

It tunes your approach to delivering value rather than taking it.

What your prospect wants matters.

What you want doesn’t.
