I use Twitter as a commonplace note: https://t.co/vPr6DeA0d4 CTO In Sales • Homeschooling dad Building @siteaudittools & @thoughttonote
It is called “social” media for a reason. Make it social. Don’t blow your horn. Join discord channels, slack channels. Schedule time in your calendar to add value to these members. If you add value you don’t need cold calling. They will follow you.
You can create interesting and creative content even for boring industries like CRM. Key for that is to understand that there is a human on the other side of the keyboard. Talk abt their pain points rather than talking abt you
Immerse yourself where your audiences are - FB groups, Reddit, LinkedIn Be one of them and understand their pain points.
You can use content to shape your company’s culture. Start an internal newsletter. Talk abt out your company’s goals, point of view of your industry etc for your employees
@rag0g @tim_nolet @checklyHQ Thank you.
@tim_nolet @checklyHQ @rag0g Are these waits available for all browsers?

@PBeekums @123sarang @v1bhormahajan In case you are interested in distribution, I found this latest podcast of @TheCoolestCool with @FerraroOnAir super informative
@PBeekums Left medium long back. Find LinkedIn better in traffic generation. But @123sarang & @v1bhormahajan says if your post is picked by a publication there is spike in traffic
@titaniumals Thanks. I use the default fitness app. Just finding out if there are any better apps
@thesayansapui Half of advice on internet is BS 😜
We talk about how he sources his stories, how he structures his stories, and his writing process. We dive deep into one of the story and go into every detail of the story. Listen and share your feedback.

@rohit_jindal29 Reading & listening to Thomas Sowell, who too propagate such ideas. But aren’t democracies abt spl interests & moralities of majorities? If so, does democracy boost or destroy capitalism? China embraced capitalism without democracy (Singapore too with some changes) Ur thots?
@Rahul_J_Mathur I remember often what @paulg tweeted here: If you are not part of the solution, you are a problem. It is very difficult to be part of the solution:
Did this thread help you? I would appreciate if you retweet the first tweet. And follow me for more informational tweets.
As @dorieclarksays, content creation is one way to stand out from the crowd (other two being network and social proof). Follow @EmmySobieski's advice and amortize your effort. You can listen to the full episode of my interview with Emmy here:
If you have spent time and effort in creating a content, amortize that effort in creating other forms of the same content. post -> twitter thread -> podcast -> video -> slides
As a content marketer Whatever post I write on my blog, it find its way to LinkedIn as a post, article, or even as a newsletter. Here on twitter, it appears as a twitter thread or just a simple tweet.
As an advisor to startups and also as an investor I ask set of questions to evaluate a startup. The questions are based on a framework. I posted them here: • P.A.S.T.O.R. Framework: • Checklist For Evaluating Startups:
In 2017, I studied Mary Meeker's Internet report in detail to plan our annual focus. I posted that analysis on my blog here:
As a CTO I study market trends to prepare ourselves to meet upcoming needs. I took time to post my process here: • How to find trends in your industry: • Trends As A Guide To The Future:
As a developer Tracking down errors and searching through @StackOverflow is a daily affair. After we fix it, we forget the error and solution. Amortize the effort. Publish the error & solution as a blog post (or a LinkedIn article) Example:
We all create so much of content (more so in WFH). Developers, marketers, CEOs... everyone. Let me give some examples of how I'm amortizing my effort in content creation.
@adrianmouat Absolutely 😜

@SejalSud You should turn your twitter spaces into podcast
