Growing Big on X: Our 3-Month Success Story

Getting noticed on X (what used to be called Twitter) can be hard for businesses today. This story shows how we grew a lot using smart X ads and by talking to people on the platform.

What We Started With

We started with nothing! Our plan was to grow the right way and make real connections. Here’s what we wanted to do:

• Get followers who are really interested in what we do
• Get people to sign up for our emails
• Make friends with our audience
• Not spend too much money on ads

The Hard Part

We had some challenges to face:

• We had zero followers to start
• We needed people to trust us in a crowded place
• We had to get followers to become email subscribers
• We wanted to keep our ad costs low

How We Did It

Our plan was to make friends first, not just get sales. Here’s what we focused on:

What We Posted

• We made sure to post useful stuff regularly
• We showed we knew what we were talking about
• We only promoted things at the right time

How We Talked to People

• We got to know people personally
• We joined in on conversations
• We used direct messages (DMs) to build relationships

Our Ad Plan

• We made ads that got people talking
• We showed ads to people who already liked us
• We made sure our profile link was easy to find
