1 - Weak bio & pinned tweet
As @dvassallo says, "gaining followers is a funnel". People go through your profile like it's a business card.
If what you offer it's not clear and interesting, they won't follow.
I also talked about this a while back: https://twitter.com/AlexLlullTW/status/1296885840392728576

2 - Avoid retweets
Your timeline should be about yourself.
People follow someone for their content, not their RTs which is basically other people's content.
If you feel the need to retweet something, make it a quote retweet. Add something valuable to your audience.

3 - Reply to other people's tweets
Turn on notifications for accounts you like and comment or quote RT their content.
Contribute, add value, an opinion, an example, or refute their point to start a conversation.
I call this "stealing followers": https://twitter.com/AlexLlullTW/status/1300396432617345024

4 - Avoid posting uninteresting stuff
Unless you are well-known, nobody will care about your pets, your new haircut, or your new car.
Build an audience by creating the content YOU would love to consume.
Your target audience is a past version of yourself.

5 - Tweet something
As Daniel puts it, "It's quality over quantity, but quantity can't be zero".
If you keep shooting every day, you will soon hit the mark.

6 - Use your full name and photo
In my experience, people connect better with other people, not anonymous accounts (although there are a few of those being super successful, it's not the norm).

7 - Avoid a negative "ask budget"
When you start, nobody knows you. What do you think their reaction will be if you start asking for stuff?
Follow me! RT this! Buy my ebook!
You need to build credibility first before asking from your audience.
Give, give, give, and then take.
