I'm writing about how I made IRL friends w/ the most successful people in Austin, TX last year

As makers, we know it's important to launch early and often. I'm trying this with blog posts, too.

I'm writing a post on how I made IRL friends w/ the most successful people in Austin, TX last year- I figured I'd share the outline here and ask: do you want to read this? What am I missing in this outline?

OUTLINE

Step 1: Treated friendships like a mkting funnel

• took one month of data and made a graph of IRL friendship sources by quality & quantity
• in my case twitter = highest quality & quantity of IRL friends

Step 2: created content to get friends in-person from twitter

• I targeted successful, data-driven newcomers to ATX w/ a home-buying guide
• posted about how many friends I have, which drove ppl to dm asking to meet

Step 3: Created a 'friendship loop' from twitter friends

• we'd work together to introduce each other to the most interesting people we knew
• this grew all of our circles, but it was slow (one person at a time)

Step 4: Put that friendship loop on steroids by tapping into 'collectors'

• collectors curate groups of high quality like-minded people (collectors are wonderful! Sparkles)
• if it's a good fit, it's 10x the ROI of the before-mentioned 'friendship loop' for meeting fascinating people

Bonus section: some rules of thumb for befriending super interesting/successful people (that I learned through making a ton of mistakes haha)

I'd appreciate any feedback!

Thank you!
