How I created a six figure business by only writing tweets in a third world country.

A thread on how a razor and $50 changed my life:

I'm by no means special, I'm actually stubborn as fuck.

English isn't my first language.

For months I just lurked Twitter not doing anything.

It was not until an opportunity literally fell in my lap that I decided to take it.

But here's how I did it (and how you can too):
The funniest part of the story is how I did literally nothing for months on Twitter.

Just write, write, write.

Meanwhile, I saw everyone winning.

"I made $100k last year!"

"I made $50k last month!"

"This tweet made me $1,000!"

I started asking questions:
"How the fuck do you make $50k in a month?"

"Clients? How do you get your first client?"

"What would my clients even pay for?"

Then I kinda put it aside and kept writing tweets.

100 followers, then 1k, then 2k then 10k and it all went pretty well

One problem tho:
I loved it.

I really did. Writing is so fucking dope to me.

But I haven't make a single cent from it.

Zero.

"Follow your passion" seemed like bullshit, until it hit me:
Take a look at social media accounts like the razor sellers, @Gillette.

Check their likes on every tweet.

They suck.

Big time.

Even I had better engagement at 100 followers.

And they have 130 THOUSAND.

See where I'm going with this?
If a single tweet means thousands of dollars in sales for them,

And you and me can definitely write better than whoever's in charge of marketing there,

Why not reach out and tweet for them?

"You pay me to write tweets for you and I'll get you even more in sales."
That become my new business model.

So I started reaching out to people in "Money Twitter".

People who I knew I could help and I knew could pay.

And here's where I cheated a little (but turned out well lol).

I said:
"Yo bro I love what you're doing with xyz, really appreciate the value you're dishing out.

Just wanted to say that I wrote 5 tweets for you. You're free to use them because I know they will get you great engagement.

And if they don't , I'll pay you $50!"
I included this image with the message (which had nothing on it and I was gonna fill only if you were interested lmaoooo)

What they saw vs. what it really was
15 people said no.

One said yes.

This guy tried it, turned out well and we got on a call.

Worst fucking sales call you could ever imagine, but he still hired me (gracias hermano).

$700/mo for 5 tweets a day.

(Which is way lower than what I charge today, but listen...)
I made $250/mo working part time in a third world country (Guatemala) at the time.

So $700/mo for WRITING TWEETS was just surreal.

And as you can see, it wasn't even that hard.

But I had to try...
Later on, I signed my second, third, fourth, etc.... clients and we started rolling.

As of today, I've hired a couple writers and someone to help me with operations because the workload is too much.

The ghostwriting agency is on it's way to six figures and I couldn't be happier
And just so you know:

Shit wasn't hard.

It's literally as easy as learning how to write (I have a guide on that at https://t.co/RbHYRwMxY7)

And having the courage to put your name on the line.

One client.

One yes.

That's all you need to completely change your life.
This is only one way to make money, you know.

I chose ghostwriting.

There are tons:

-Cold Email and Lead Gen
-Copywriting
-Email marketing
-Media Buying
-Web Design
-Ecommerce
-Themed Pages

You name it.

4 clients at $2.1k/month.

Boom.

I'll also show you how to

-Just be happier
-Get smarter

So follow me and let's fucking do this together brother.

Examine lets you cut through the noise on Nutrition and supplement information.

It’s got zero conflicts of interest: No ads, No industry ties.
Every single time I set foot in every store/restaurant/place of business in Latin America. Only if they are not completely ignoring me from jump. Or following me bc obviously I came to carry out my plans to rob a store that is approximately 2 sq ft. big.


The part that’s also relevant is I’m oftentimes viewed as respectable-negro adjacent in the dominant culture imaginary. So what of those who are never identified as such? I always think about that. I get surveyed & harassed bad...yet and still there’s levels to the profiling.

When I have to do errands in Panama City, I make sure to apply makeup, perfume, an outfit with cleavage, or booty emphasis, heels and an “expensive” purse. There are STARK differences in the service and treatment I get when I do this vs. when I don’t. STARK. Pero, *STARK.*

LatinAmerica is psychotic in identifying who has money and who doesn’t based on how they are dressed, and how they imagine, carrying themselves. An “elegantly dressed” Black person will face less violence on an errand-run versus one who isn’t. This isn’t absolute so sit down plis

And then the times when I am dressed super-revealing. All of the help and care in the world from male workers. The same white mestizo men who would ordinarily follow me to “prevent theft” are happily helping me find things. Again, race, color, gender, class and more.
