Dan koe and Dakota are oldest creator’s on X
They made $1,000,000+ by just writing tweets.
So I spend 3 hours analyzing their most engaged tweets in the last 6 months.

I'm shocked.
• Im new to X
• Im working on swipeup all day
• Im still learning about brand building
But I still managed to get 120 followers in one day.
How ? By making friends.
The more the friends . The more the growth

Finally 200 after 18 days.
Here's the "secret" that I followed:

Grateful to meet nice people here but still many more to meet.

Money doesn’t buy happiness.
But it buys freedom.
And freedom IS happiness.
Right?

I was ignorant.
• Thought Twitter was all politics.
• For wasting time online
• For controversy
But it isn't. I realize it's a great place to be in.
NEVER judge a book by its cover.

My best moments were when I was free.
Not when I am working on business.
I built business to be free.
I had to...
Stay consistent
Struggle
Sacrifice
That is what makes me Kiril
I work for freedom.
I work for memories.

5 Things I did to get 120 followers with one tweet.
1. Listicle
2. Good hook
3. White spaces
4. Shared my goal.
5. Added CTA at the end.
I did it while being away and working on Swipeup.
If I can then you can.

I just hit 20 followers. 🥳
The next goal is 100 followers in 7 days. my game plan...
• Make friends.
• Post 5 times a day
• Support my friends.
• Maintain the quality.
• Engage before posting
Should I add something?

“eCom is saturated”
Maybe...
But that shouldn't make you quit.
It means that you need to stand out.
To be a bit better than your competitors.
Maybe even a single tweak.
Just find out what makes your store better and you’re golden.

I don’t care about how much money you make.

For 7 years, I was in a 9-5 and figuring out how to make money online.
• Struggled on more than 4 projects.
• Struggled for nights.
• Stuck in the loop
But I eventually made it.
Yes, it was a hard journey.
But not harder than the pain of regret

Sometimes, customers add items to the cart but don't buy.
It's because they are confused/ frustrated.
You have to be clear and simple.
• Simplify checkouts
• Offer discounts
• Send reminders
Simplicity >>> cool looking

Me in 2021:
• Stuck at a 9-5
• Wanted to quit
• Always stressed
Me in 2024:
• Moved to Bali
• Launched an app
• Traveling the world
Nomad life is the best life.

When I started i was illiterate on branding.
Then I had to study all of it while running swipe up (my saas)
First 10 followers
Then 100
Now 200
All because I stayed consistent enough.

I sucked when I started eCom.
But then I clung to it for some time and it was the best decision of my life.
Anyone can start any type of business.
It’s about the reps.

Marketing an eCom is a piece of cake.
It’s always the cold audience that you’re targeting.
And it’s always Paid Ads that you’re using.
But you know what makes the difference?
Your website.
A little tweak and your store will do better than the best.
Keep experimenting.

I Love where I am.
• Left my 9-5

• Got freedom to Travel the world.

Your dreams are eternal.
KEEP GOING.

Become an eCom spy.
Analyze how your competitors' stores work.
No. It's not unethical.
Competitor analysis is something everybody does.
Study and find the gaps your store can fill.
That's how you make it work.

4/ Take the leap
I was hesitant about leaving my side hustles.
I was hesitant about leaving the 9-5.
I was hesitant about moving to Bali
But I still did it.
Doesn't matter if you are wrong.
I took the leap of faith.

My 5 non-negotiable to get SwipeUp to $10K MRR in 2024:
1/ ALL IN
I was juggling between work and business.
It was no good.
So I chose one and went all in.
That’s how I moved to Bali and built SwipeUp.
Burning the boats.

5/ Seek Fulfillment

Was a journey to seek fulfillment
Not happiness.
Happiness doesn't exist without struggles.
Journal and Reflect on your purpose to find it

3/ Entrepreneurial Spirit

Find problems in life and fix them.
Create opportunities by taking action.

I worked for Russia’s biggest social media platform.
While on the job, I tried different business models.
But it was almost always a failure.
I felt stuck working a job.
For 7 years.

I failed every business model I tried until…
I got an idea.
I was good at eCom and used to try new things in my stores.
And one of them worked so well that the next thing I knew
I was in Bali with no job and all in into this idea.

When I had a job, all I did was nothing.
I was distracted.
I juggled my business and my 9-5 for 7 years.
But since I quit my job:
• I’m focused
• I’m productive
• I’m not wasting my time
Focus is everything in business.

Quitting 9-5 was a BIG favor for me.
Now I:
Live in Bali
Can travel anytime
Can focus on my SwipeUp
Freedom was a choice.
And I don’t regret any second of it.

Short-form videos like those on TikTok.

Most people:
I want to help young youth by educating them and making the world a better place
ME:
I want to help myself until I become the best version of myself. Then help people who are one step Behind Me.

Steal my framework to increase E-com sales.
Add email marketing.
Add UGC content to the page.
Add your social media to the page.

The quote I live by:
"Take full responsibility for your actions and their outcomes"
Why not skip partying?
Why not try new things?
Why not build a business?

You can't just scale with ads.
Ads are good for funneling people into your store.
But there is a huge problem if they leave without buying.
One of the problems I've experienced while running my own store.
That is why I've built swipe up for it

People think e-com is saturated.
No.
It’s not saturated.

Everybody does the same thing they did 2 years ago.
A single tweak and your store might blow up.

“Ecom is Dying”
No, it’s not.
People still make 7 figures.
The difference is that they stand out with simple things.
That’s why I built SwipeUp.
A key to stand out from the competition.
