Well, here I am, with supposedly 10k Twitter followers. Yay me.
Here’s what I think. “Big deal”.
What does it really mean? If anything at all?
I Didn’t Try Either
It’s not that I even tried to get them either. The thing is, aside from doing an auto-follow that Twitter themselves turned on for me over a year ago, I don’t even try to get followers. I mean, I have no plan or do no special things to try and get them.
I simply use Twitter as I feel like it. I retweet stuff I find interesting or problem solving or fun. I post tweets about my personal stuff and my business stuff and I’m blatantly promotional sometimes for my stuff. I often have personal conversations with others too. In fact, some, if not many, would consider me a bad follow.
So why do I have 10k followers? Once again, I’m at a Twitter crossroads. Maybe you can help.
Now what? Go for 20k followers? 50k?
What’s the point? It seems to me it’s purely a narcissistic mentality to pursue bigger numbers?
Perhaps I should start a nofollow me campaign like the Burger King “unfriend” me thing on Facebook.
Yeah, that’s it. Do NOT follow me.
Or maybe I should try to be such a bad Tweeter that people will have no choice but to unfollow me.
I wonder how fast I could take my 10k down to 1k?
