How to make $630 in under 48 hours, before you have even written your ebook 😮

Don't believe it's true?

I interviewed Mustafa @mkhundmiri on a live call because he did precisely that.

In this thread, I'm sharing with you his story...

👇👇 THREAD TIME 👇👇
1) So what happened is that Mustafa announced his ebook in a simple tweet

And he earned $630 from just the pre-orders

While having only 900 followers 🤯

I asked him for an interview, he agreed, and we talked on a LIVE call in Discord

(You can watch the replay at the end)

👇
2) During the live call, Mustafa revealed his thought process and several interesting strategies.

I specifically wanted to know what he suggests to others who want to replicate his success.

I learned several things from him...

👇
3) The first thing Mustafa did was test his idea 💡

He put out a tweet explaining that as a freelancer, he's been finding clients since 5 years via cold email outreach.

Then he asked his followers if they would be interested in an ebook on cold email!

👇
4) On December 10th, Mustafa wrote "I have over 5 years of experience getting freelance writing clients via cold emailing".

And: "If I write a short ebook detailing it, would you pay $10 for it?"

With only 900 followers, this tweet had 85 likes and a lot of engagement 🔥

👇
5) Only 6 days later, he had already created:

- Ebook cover
- Title
- Sales page

The first 30 orders were on a discount and he sold them in under 17 hours! 💰

👇
6) In the following hours after that, 22 more pre-orders came in.

Total:
- 52 sales
- $630
- Under 48 hours

How many accounts have less than thousand followers and never made a single sale?

So I wanted to learn from Mustafa what his strategy was to make hundreds of dollars

👇
7) So Mustafa's first tip is this:

💡 Test your product idea first

That's why he asked his followers first if they'd even be interested in buying a $10 ebook on cold emailing.

But that still doesn't explain how so many of his followers bought the ebook!

👇
8) Think about it:

- 900 followers
- 52 sales

That means 5.8% of his followers PRE-ORDERED his ebook!!

Remember when your account had 300 followers? Did you sell 17 ebooks (that's 5.8%) in 48 hours? 👀

Let's find out his secret...

👇
9) When I asked Mustafa exactly this question he had a very interesting answer.

He said: "Compare 2kg of muscle with 2kg of fat. The fat has much more mass than the muscle - but it's actually the exact same weight."

Then he continues: "That's how it is on Twitter, too."

👇
10) He added: "Some accounts have a lot of followers but it's all fat. Other accounts are smaller but it's a muscle."

Mustafa finished with: "I always focused on building a follower base that will be like a muscle."

In other words:
Quality > Quantity

👇
11) To be fair, Mustafa also mentioned that he recognizes the advantages of having a large following.

But in the end it boils down to this:

Why have 10k followers when nobody buys from you? When nobody clicks your links? When nobody engages with you?

Fair point...

👇
12) So Mustafa's next tip is this:

💡 Don't chase new followers, focus on building a stronger relationship with your current followers.

In other words: Cut fat, build muscle.

But that leads to a follow-up question: How exactly do you do this??

Mustafa has a secret...

👇
13) During our live call, I asked Mustafa:

"For the listeners of this call, what is ONE thing that they can do, to build a strong bond with their followers like you did?

What's a DAILY TASK that someone can do to achieve it?"

This is what he answered...

👇
14) Mustafa's strategy was simple: DMs.

And not just any DMs, he uses Welcome DMs.

👇
15) So his next tip is this:

💡 Send a Welcome DM to every new follower.

But he has two very important rules:

1. Do not send automated messages, always write them yourself and make them personalized.

2. Never sell in your welcome message or first few conversations!

👇
16) He said that he's not on Twitter to obsess over his followers number.

He's here to create friendships, meet people, and build a network.

So far, he has about 50 friends who regularly chat with him or who had a cool conversation with him.

Wait a second...

👇
17) Doesn't the number 50 sound familiar?

That's right: 52 pre-orders for his ebook.

Here is one more thing that Mustafa did:

When he put out his tweet linking to the pre-order pages, he sent that tweet to all his friends in DMs!

👇
18) And this is Mustafa's final tip:

💡 Send your most important promotional tweet to your friends.

Everything he does is based on genuine, mutual relationships.

He gave a lot more background info and you can listen to the recording (link at the end).

Let's summarize...

👇
19) Here is what we learned from Mustafa:

💡 Test your idea first

💡 Build relationships with your current followers, don't chase after new followers

💡 Use Twitter DMs to send short & personalized Welcome Messages to your new followers

💡 Send important tweets to friends
