  • Begin posting quality content consistently: Do not Tweet 15x per day for a week and then post only 2x a day the next week. Consistency will greatly increase effectiveness. Use a scheduling tool such as eClincher to spread out your posts and easily view how many posts you are sharing per day.
  • Attach relevant images to posts: Posts with images are 2x more likely to be Retweeted than posts with text only. Use tools like Canva to design high quality, perfectly sized images.
  • Follow up to 100 new people per day: influencers, friends, family, etc.

  • Search for relevant hashtags and keywords: Easy way to find potential leads, great content to share and engage in conversations
  • Manage your following-to-followers ratio weekly: Go through the list of users that you are following weekly and unfollow users that are not following you
  • Use relevant hashtags to increase reach: 1 to 3 hashtags per post is the ideal amount per post. Make sure you are using relevant hashtags, not just the most popular ones.
