Intro tweets have evolved into intro threads where I include suggested follows and helpful resources.
This amplifies others in an authentic way.

Amplify the success of others. If you see someone posting about a great new life or career update, say congratulations. I like to retweet with a comment these types of posts because we all need a little positivity in our Twitter feed these days. https://twitter.com/sarah_mojarad/status/1261494844146372609?s=21 …https://twitter.com/Sarah_Mojarad/status/1261494844146372609 …

Amplify accounts that consistently share high quality content. Here’s an example
Don’t just say “follow this person!”
Explain why people should follow the account.

4. Share opinions.

Caveat: Strong opinions could earn you a reputation for being controversial. Trust me, I know
In all seriousness, have a goal in mind and think about how your audience can benefit from the additional perspective you share.1 reply 1 retweet 23 likesShow this thread -
One thing people with high follower accounts have in common is that they share opinions that add value. That’s why an audience follows. It seems so obvious, but this is often overlooked. Tap into your unique perspective and share it.

You have to keep yourself in check though. As follower counts rise, it can be tempting to share opinions about everything. Don’t fall into the Dunning-Krueger trap. Stick to what you know.

Sticking to what you know will increase your audience’s trust. For ex., I discuss subjects that involve STEM&med, but I’ll never try to interpret scientific concepts. I now describe my limitations because people frequently address me as doctor.

Sarah Mojarad 🌿 @Sarah_MojaradI’m not going to get into the science (because I don’t know the science), but you should ask a chemist or chemical engineer about them. https://twitter.com/thiemechemistry/status/1259060634441965568?s=21 … https://twitter.com/thiemechemistry/status/1259060634441965568 …Show this thread1 reply 0 retweets 15 likesShow this thread -

If you were hoping for some secret formula for creating viral posts, sorry. I can’t help you. To be honest, you don’t want a post to go viral. When it happens, you’re forever known for whatever it is you shared. It’s like a permanent tattoo you can’t remove.

On the other hand, you do want blog posts to go viral.
