Here are a few quick takeaways about Twitter & newsletter growth.

1. The 10:1 ratio
Give 10 times as much as you ask.
Congratulate, share, answer questions. Be helpful. Save people time.

I tried this now already but it's not successful. With around 30 subscribers, the chances of someone clicking a link and signing up as well are pretty low.

4. In your newsletter, double down on the content that gets more clicks.
5. "Have your own landing page separate from your email platform provider. That way, if you change providers you don't need to create one from scratch."
6. Automate as much as possible to make your life easier.
Thanks to @JanelSGM I started using @publer to schedule tweets.
And don't write threads in the Twitter app because it can't be saved as a draft.
I'm doing exactly this. It's going to be the last time. I promise.

7. Share what you like.

Personal note: making threads while I am listening to something helps me focus.
It means I have to listen attentively and I can't get distracted by my phone or other tabs.
If you struggle to stay focused. Take extensive notes while listening to something you want to learn from.
