I left my job in April 2020 & took a good 5 months break. Never I imagined that Twitter would change my life.
I went all-in on Twitter in April. I roughly had 300-400 followers back then. Started Interacting with like-minded people to grow.
I made a google sheet of all the like-minded people along with their Twitter profile links so that I can chat with them later, tag them, etc.
I believe that was really important. This helped me to know each other very well.
During this period of 5 months, I was able to:
I pretty much think that more of my success until now is due to Twitter.

Awesome stuff Tejas, thanks for sharing. I recently purchased a Gumroad course on building an audience via Twitter and it largely follows your advice. It's working for me so far: +42 followers in January! https://twitter.com/simpixelated/status/1356628502271778820
Great to hear. My best month was May 2020. I tweeted 1319 times, got 10.5k visits and 321 new followers.
What did I do?
Great advice! I'm working on a long-form thread right now that I plan to turn into a blog post and maybe a few other things, following your article.
Nice :)
Congrats Tejas!
You've been killing it on Twitter.
Also, thanks to your great tool- Zlappo :)
Just curious:
Why do you recommend having a personal blog if you can create long threads instead?
You got one more follower.
Having a personal blog has many benefits:-
Here's a blog post I wrote on the omnichannel approach where you can just repurpose your blog or Twitter thread into many content pieces:- https://tejasrane.co/8-post-with-1-tweet/
Personal blog has better SEO and easily shared with other social media platforms. having personal blog also adds credibility to the author. I'd recommend having long-form writing on blog and then putting the crux of these articles as twitter threads.

I understand what you are trying to say, however, followers are part of the marketing effort. Social networking is part of entrepreneurship but not the goal of course. I think Tejas is trying to explain why his product was more successful than expected. If you can't buy an influencer, be the influencer.
I never said entrepreneurship is now measured in no. of followers. But having a high number of followers is certainly an important KPI for the Growth of your product.
How?
More number of followers means:-
Of course, Entrepreneurship is measured by MRR, Growth, Sustainability, etc. I don't deny that ever.
