From Crypto Tweets To $11k/Month Ghostwriting

INSIGHT

Twitter Ghostwriting Is Compressed Copywriting

  • Ghostwriting on Twitter is basically copywriting: you must capture attention, build interest, and keep engagement with open loops.
  • Twitter's 280-character limit forces writers to be direct, succinct, and cut fluff for instant feedback on what works.
ADVICE

Make Voice By Capturing Their Story

  • Capture a client's voice by nailing their story during interviews and sprinkle in personal phrases, rather than imitating tone superficially.
  • Use the client's real stories and small verbal quirks to make ghostwritten posts feel authentic.
