I think offering something for free is a great way to get a strong response.
It's on offer, it's hard to resist, and of course, there is always that person who takes the deal. The emotional impact you offer is really what makes this work.
You are very correct 💯
This strategy pays a lot.
Yea exactly my strategy.
Well done!
This is an amazing strategy! I did something similar and got 500 replies last time.
Time to strategize the next thing :)
Thanks Kevon, you're the master I'm following 🙌
That's awesome. Love the strategy of not using the product link in the original tweet.
I'm planning for a few upcoming Kinde product launches and might have to steal some of that Twitter advice.
We're also doing the free option to kick things off - works crazy well and gives you time to improve the product.
Yes totally, you should definitely try it.
Nice little summary you included of top reasons launches on Twitter go poorly:
“ Product launches on Twitter go bad for a bunch of reasons -
Yes, I've done a lot of launches on Twitter which have failed, and I have studied other successful/failed product launches as well.
These are the main reasons I've found.
wow
Thanks!
Wow, not bad! Offering something for free is always a good choice. And super interesting point about not linking the product — seems like a terrible idea, but you're right about it being the best way for the tweet to get seen.
I'd be concerned about burning through your audience, though — most of your followers will have seen this, so anyone who might be interested would have signed up for free. Which means you're going to have a hard time getting your audience to pay for it in the future. No?
I’m probably late to the game but I recently learned that most social media platforms are not excited to widely share posts with links (makes sense because they don’t want you to leave), but really reward posts with lots of comments and shares. Hence influencers always annoyingly asking people to type “yes!” Or “I’m in” in the comments to receive a link. But it makes sense.
Yes so I can 2 things here:
Get testimonials and reviews from the existing users and try to sell the product to new people who come into my audience later on.
Upsell other products and services I have to the folks who came in for this product.
I'm going to try both these experiments and see how it goes..
Makes sense!
