How I grew @prov_pizza 3650% over the last month.

This is me trying to build in public like @thisiskp_ and being transparent like @jackbutcher.

A
visual thread. 👇🍕

1/ The secret towards getting these gains? Start from zero.

The stats after 4 weeks:

0 —> 77.4K Impressions
0 —> 6,130 Profile visits
0 —> 490 Likes
2 —> 73 Followers, sorry for the bait ;)

Here are some of my key learnings. 👇
2/ @jamierusso taught me to remix the content of others.

With only 9 followers I added some pizza sauce to Jamie’s content.

It got me over 4K impressions on a single tweet.
3/ The key to a good remix: add value.

With @prov_pizza I tried to add:

- Another perspective.
- Humor.
- Pizza. This usually does the trick ;
4/ Remixes were a pitfall too.

I was tempted to remix anything from anyone I found interesting, because it seemed to work.

@foundbryan taught me to stick to my niche.
5/ @prov_pizza is about leveraging talent and building better teams.

@foundbryan helped me realize that for the project to work long-term:

1 Genuinely interested follower > 10 vaguely interested followers.
6/ @craigburgess taught me to get doing things.

He’s the living embodiment of ‘putting in the reps’.

By creating pizza visuals everyday, the creative juices started flowing more and more.
7/ @alicellemee taught me to disconnect from my work emotionally.

It’s easy to get caught up in the (lack-off) success of your posts.

Instead of staring at notifications it helped to simply shift my focus towards creating again.
8/ @aadit taught me how to use Twitter the right way.

I went from consuming towards consuming to create.
If you liked these pizza visuals please give @prov_pizza a follow!

We’ll help you to leverage talent and build better teams, with pizza!

It’s a father-son project with @erikvanderkooij. He’s been teaching me for 21 years now.

This is why I'm not a critic of "cancel culture." It's crucial to impose social costs for the breech of key social norms. The lesson of overreaction is that we need to recalibrate judgment to get it right next time, not that we need a lot more bad judgment in the other direction.


Obviously, people will disagree about which norms are important, about how bad it is to violate them, and thus about how severe the social cost ought to be. That's just pluralism, man, and it's good.

It's important to openly talk through these substantive differences, which is why derailing these conversations with hand-waving moral panic about "cancel culture" is obnoxious and illiberal.

Screaming "cancel culture!" when somebody pays a social costs other people have been fighting hard to get others to see as necessary is often just a way to declare, with no argument, that the sanction in question was not only unnecessary but in breach of a more important norm.

It's impossible to uphold social norms without social sanctions, so obviously anti-cancelers are going to want to impose a social cost on people they see as imposing unjustly steep social costs on others.
