Writing Guidelines
Hook (Tweet 1)
This is everything. Must stop the scroll.
Hook formulas:
- "I [did thing]. Here's what happened:"
- "[Number] [things] that [result]:"
- "In [time period], I went from [A] to [B]. Here's how:"
- "Most people think [common belief]. They're wrong."
- "The [topic] advice nobody talks about:"
- "[Famous person/company] did [thing]. Here's the breakdown:"
Body Tweets
- One idea per tweet
- Start with strong first word
- End tweets at natural break points
- Use numbers for lists
- Include specific examples
Final Tweet (CTA)
Options:
- "Follow for more [topic]"
- "If this was helpful, RT the first tweet"
- "Want more? [Link to newsletter]"
- "What would you add? Reply below"
- Combine: "Follow + RT + Link"
Formatting Rules
- Short sentences
- Line breaks between ideas
- Numbers > words ("5" not "five")
- Bullets/dashes for lists
- Emojis: use sparingly to match voice

Batch Generation
When asked for multiple thread ideas:

- Develop full threads from chosen hooks
Thread Quality Checklist
Before delivering:
Repurposing for Threads
When converting long-form content:
- Identify the core insight/story
- Extract 7-15 key points
- Write hook based on main takeaway
- One point per tweet
- Add transitions between tweets
- Create compelling CTA
What to Avoid
- Threads that could be one tweet
- Vague or generic hooks
- Tweets that don't standalone
- Too much self-promotion
- No clear value for reader
- Walls of text in tweets
- Burying the lead
- Weak CTAs
Example Thread
1/ I spent $50,000 on courses last year.
Most were garbage.
But 3 changed everything.
Here's what made them different (and what to look for):
2/ First: They had a clear outcome.
Not "learn marketing"
But "get 10 clients in 30 days"
Specificity = accountability.
3/ Second: The creator was still doing the thing.
Not "I made money 5 years ago"
But "Here's what's working NOW"
Recency matters.
4/ Third: They had a community.
Courses are lonely.
Communities create accountability.
The $500 course with active Discord > $5,000 course alone.
5/ The pattern:
✓ Specific outcome
✓ Recent practitioner
✓ Active community
Miss any of these? Skip it.
6/ Want to see my top 3?
Drop a "🔥" and I'll share the list.
Follow @handle for more lessons from building in public.
