Want to grow your Twitter audience around a niche subject?
Here's how 16-year-old @PrasoonPratham attracted 40,000+ followers wanting to learn about machine learning over a few months, from scratch! 👇🧵
2. Pratham joined Twitter June 2019 to learn more about his life passion, programming.
In May 2020 he got curious about machine learning and started tweeting about it.
But, he was just a beginner! 🙃
No matter.
By the end of the year he reached circa 40k followers.
3. So, how can someone with no prior experience on a subject become an influencer in such a short period of time?
Particularly on a platform that counts numerous—highly followed—machine learning experts amongst its ranks of users from the likes of Google and Amazon. 🤔
4. Pratham says he found a "gap in the community."
Before Pratham came along most of the machine learning content tweeted by 'big' subject matter accounts was by experts for experts.
He catered to beginners.💡
5. A lot of tweeters trying to build a Twitter audience make the mistake of choosing a topic that is already popular and simply emulate the top voices within it. 🗣️
Unless you have overwhelming domain authority, there’s simply too much noise to compete effectively with them.
