Twitter Hacks By Justin Welsh

10 powerful Twitter hacks every user should know:
— Justin Welsh (@thejustinwelsh) May 31, 2022

1/ Most popular Tweets

Ever wanted to find someone's most popular Tweets of all-time?

Or maybe their most popular recent Tweets?

Install @Twemex App and instantly find them all. pic.twitter.com/Xi4AIxfiKo
— Justin Welsh (@thejustinwelsh) May 31, 2022

2/ Most active times

It's best to Tweet when your followers are online.

Do you know when they are most active?

Twitter doesn't tell you, but @Followerwonk does

Get more engagement with better timing. pic.twitter.com/wnPBFNABop
— Justin Welsh (@thejustinwelsh) May 31, 2022

3/ Auto-retweeting for growth

The shelf-life of a Tweet is about 24 hours.

One great way to get more engagement is to Retweet yourself.

I RT myself 9 hours later using @hypefury

The best part? They UN-Retweet 24 hours later.

That keeps your profile nice and clean. pic.twitter.com/MFyGMehLNv
— Justin Welsh (@thejustinwelsh) May 31, 2022

4/ Auto-plugging for subscribers@Hypefury will also auto-plug your newsletter.

- Select the number of likes/engagements.
- Create your custom message to add-on

Voila.

If your post reaches the threshold, it will auto-plug your newsletter.

Great for products/services too! pic.twitter.com/0E1MRcIv15
— Justin Welsh (@thejustinwelsh) May 31, 2022

5/ Hyper-fast engagement

Engaging with top accounts is crucial.

I use @blackmagic_so to create my list of important accounts.

It shows me how many Tweets I've missed from them.

Then, 2x per day, I engage at hyper-speed to keep growing.

You can do it right from the sidebar! pic.twitter.com/FBm8iu5Tk5
— Justin Welsh (@thejustinwelsh) May 31, 2022

6/ Personal Twitter CRM

Struggle to remember everyone's kid's names?

Or maybe how you met? Or if someone introduced you?@blackmagic_so also has built-in CRM functionality.

Never forget another important detail. pic.twitter.com/PuDwxRZx1Z
— Justin Welsh (@thejustinwelsh) May 31, 2022

7/ Bookmark folders

Want to save and organize your favorite Tweets?

With @TwitterBlue you can build out an entire file cabinet of bookmarks.

Just sign up, build out your folders, and get saving. pic.twitter.com/MX1RmUs9aM
— Justin Welsh (@thejustinwelsh) May 31, 2022

8/ Creating powerful lists

Lists are a powerful way to organize a relevant Twitter ecosystem.

Just create your lists and add your people.

Once you do, you can visit lists to see all relevant Tweets from that group.

Great for groups, local meetups, and any other organization. pic.twitter.com/30ICULbDBj
— Justin Welsh (@thejustinwelsh) May 31, 2022

9/ Mute conversations

Ever get mentioned in a tweet & you start getting hundreds of notifications?

It clogs up your whole notification feed.

Expand the details of the tweet and click the 3 dots on the top right-hand corner.

Then, click "mute this conversation." pic.twitter.com/dzz9PoaX3q
— Justin Welsh (@thejustinwelsh) May 31, 2022

10/ Hide Twitter Trends

Twitter trends are usually negative.

And they can be distracting and detrimental to your mental health.

Unless you install "Hide Twitter Trends".

This plugin will let you focus and regain your sanity by hiding the trends section.

Highly recommend. pic.twitter.com/ownR5eCX4b

5⃣ (that is really number 1, and so engrained that I almost forgot to mention) To learn from others, either directly from their tweets or from the links to long-form content shared. With lots of work, I've tweaked my feed to the point that it is pretty high signal-to-noise.

Building a startup is simpler than you think.

Just provide something a couple customers will buy, & build from there.

That’s it.

Remember that lean startup, product-market fit, etc are man-made creations used to sell books or recalibrate founders who never did this up front.
— NickFriend.eth (@theNickFriend) May 29, 2022

Seeing softening demand, lower conversion rates, revenue harder to get right now.

Not happy about it.

You might be the tastiest Apple in the orchard, but some people just don’t like apples.

You might have best idea to pitch to an investor but they are not interested in the space, the sector, the pitch fails.

Do your homework on investors thesis before you pitch.

Solopreneurship 101:

Don't quit your job and then start building your own business.

Find 60 minutes per day to work on your business and use your job as investment capital.

Once your business is paying your salary, then consider going all in.

Almost always a better choice.

Alpha leak. How to raise venture capital $:

Step 1: Upon meeting a VC, immediately say you received a term sheet earlier that day

Step 2: Send materials, say round is closing by EOW

Step 3: If the VC passes, then say you decided you're profitable and aren't raising

Repeat
— Daniel (@dgmason) May 27, 2022

The most frequent reason a VC passes on a startup pitch is because they don’t think the founders are killer. The team just doesn’t seem A+.

They rarely will ever say that explicitly. Lots of other head fake reasons offered instead… https://t.co/usQDqPyvUk
