delve into the strategies that will help you make money, build your brand,
and unlock the full potential of this vibrant social media platform. potential
of this vibrant social media [Link], let’s start with the basics. Threads
is a text-based conversation app. It’s up to 500 characters per ‘thread’, so
longer than Twitter but a similar concept - a way to find out what’s going on
in the world and communicate with people through short amounts of text.
You can add photos and videos but most people don’t so it’s
refreshingly ✨calm✨ No explore page, no trending topics, no
endless flashy videos. Just people having a chat.
The best way to think of it is like a combination between the notes apps on
your phone, the messages you send your friend or a DM to someone to
help them. It’s that sort of vibe.
It’s not somewhere to repost your Instagram reels. Please don’t.

Key Points:
1. Follow everyone in your suggested lists. All the time.
Not only to gain followers in return, but you will see more threads from
others that aren’t being ‘pushed out’ that are asking for advice, or
expressing a problem that you know how to help them with. This presents
the ‘opportunity’ to start a convo that can potentially turn into a lead, an IG
follow, or just a new ‘Thriend’! But only if it’s genuine.
2. Comment genuinely:
give advice/opinions on other peoples threads (and your own )
I GAined a lead last week through someone finding me in the comments of
someone else’s thread comments!
3. Let your personality shine:
have fun with it!
Threads is still fairly new and hasn’t been ‘ruined’ yet by advertising or the
masses… so jump on now to enjoy the party! It literally feels like one big
Reels afterparty where we all let our hair down!
4. Regarding the Algorithm:
Anything that pops up on your feed that has nothing to do with your niche -
hit the three dots and tap on ‘not interested’.
It will also help if you include a keyword in your threads like ‘digital
marketing’ for example if your post is actually about that! Or ‘making money
online’ etc etc!

Genuine comments EXAMPLES!


● What you like about the post...
Eg: this is just the right strategy, I love slide 4!
● Is there something you disagree with?Why?
Eg: it's really valuable, however what's your take on....(it will also start a
conversation! Just don't be offfensive) cont'd.
● Something that provides value to other people who see comments...
Eg. I'd like to add that.....
● Value for the author
Eg. Everyone needs to save this!!

Threads that work well:


🔸 Your hot take on stuff that’s in the news
🔸 Asking a question people are bound to have an opinion on.
🔸 A series of threads where you give advice so people have to tap into it to
read.
🔸 Storytelling - something that happened and the outcome.
How to use it to sell: post something useful then add a linked thread
telling people why they should sign up to your newsletter, head to the link in
your bio etc. I suggest doing this occasionally but not with every thread.

Threads presents an exciting opportunity to not only connect with like-


minded individuals but also to turn your presence on the app into a
lucrative business venture.
By leveraging strategies such as building a personal brand, engaging in
sponsored content, creating and selling digital products, utilizing advertising
opportunities, and building an e-commerce business, you can monetize
your presence and passion on Threads.
Get ready to unleash your creativity, engage with your audience, and
unlock the full potential of this next-generation social media platform.
Overall, Threads is a great platform for those looking to connect with others
in a more genuine and authentic way. It's like a digital diary where you can
share your thoughts, experiences, and photos with like-minded individuals.
Plus, the integration with Instagram and Stan store makes it even more
convenient and enjoyable to use.
