Hey, hunters! Our team is trying to incorporate Twitter as another marketing channel. However, we are a bit lost on how to get started both in our personal accounts and the company account. How do you leverage Twitter yourself? What are your best tips to grow a community there? (PS: feel free to leave both your personal & company accounts!)

I'm using Missinglettr to repurpose my medium articles on Twitter. Tweet Hunter for Twitter's blog can be a good source of inspiration if you are looking for advice.

Starting out on Twitter, it helps to keep engaging with other's posts by posting thoughtful comments. Writing useful threads and tweeting about your industry also helps to establish credibility and connect you to people with similar passion.

Hi Martina! From just a few months of being active on Twitter, I'd say use it to connect with your audience, ASK QUESTIONS! This is a pretty easy and straight-up way to start. Example - one of my recent tweets got a lot of attention https://twitter.com/saigalsn/sta...

@sneha_saigal Thank you Sneha! I see a good point there!
Twitter is an excellent tool for community building. Since it allows you to follow interesting people, you can easily find others with similar interests and goals. Sharing your thoughts on Twitter allows your followers to understand more about you and your passions. Remember, you can use hashtags to connect with a larger community and attract people who may be interested in your topic. You can also share articles from the web and ask your followers for their opinion on them. Here is the link to my profile: https://twitter.com/qudsiapiracha

Twitter is a great source to make your product's voice heard. Plus, you can use Twitter to find like-minded people. That's also a great way to build a community. Try to be consistent and active. Engage with other people- that's the most important one. Create meaningful and informational threads. Post visual content and utilize hashtags. I hope the tips are useful! Now, don't mind me promoting our accounts!!: https://twitter.com/productivelif https://twitter.com/usebeforesunset

Twitter is a great tool for building a community, but it takes time and dedication. To build a community through Twitter, you must first develop relationships by following other people and communicating with them on a consistent basis. Twitter is a two-way street, so you will have to be consistent and maintain two-way communication. If you take the time to do this, people will become familiar with you and want to connect with you. These relationships can help you build a community that you can eventually monetize.

In my opinion, twitter is for discussions, and posting from a personal account is way easier. With corporate account, it's really hard to get involved in a discussion in a way that will be appropriate, interesting and not cringe. I used to be active from my personal account about 10 years ago and got pretty good views and visits for my niche. It was for a self-made news website about a football club. I was following every single player, coach and reserve team members, and writing very interesting articles of how the whole team travelled, and what adventures some players were involved off the football pitch. Even though I had about 150 followers, one of my articles went viral thanks to twitter and we got over 10k views on that article, with the average of 500-1000 views on our website. Twitter is very powerful but requires to be 'on' all the time in order to follow the feed, trends, and participate in discussion that are 'hot'. When I grew up, I found myself in situation that twitter is just not interesting for me anymore. The UI evolved and became better, app looks and feels better, but I'm just not interested in this type of mechanics for social network. But maybe I need to understand how to work with Twitter in 2022, and if I'm wrong on my points above? I'll be happy to read other peoples opinions on this matter.
