Comments flows both ways, where conversation meets interest.

I’m not just showing stats to impress anyone but rather to let you know the formula is out there. Keep in mind success comes in different shapes and forms. And it might start out in differently than you expected. (you should believe that stats today is just a bump in the road if you look back months from now)

Need your full attention now on the below content, as it is imbedded with different layers of purpose. (some written out, some are not and some we can figure together)

I’ll take Pia-Marie as an case study example of how I would approach on creating engagement for more profile or article views (this is an beginner lesson, if you think you need an advance (at scale) one, please wait for the next post). In order to have the best result time is effort is needed.

I see consistent in her, which is the first factor of discipline to have in order to be a writer in the first place. Yet, to survive on a platform that is not enough.

We need to treat it as a business with full spectrum of issue to solve, task to complete, responsibility to fill and strategies to adapt in different critical environments.

Look into the history of our conversation, it is pretty natural for anyone that is interest in Carl’s post would be interest in mind as well, so I reach out. (this move itself has multiple effects)

  1. all reader that is a similar situation will go on to her profile and see what was our full conversation and how it got started, note there is no best way, only better way.
  2. the one that resonate might read, clap or comment.
  3. this is the “small lift” I’m referring to in the comment.
  4. we are human, we like to know how’s it going.
  5. we realize if we can get one reads, we can get x # of reads.

Main goal of commenting is to seek for common interest and to have meaningful conversation that improves both lives.

How are we going to find her ideal audience? (this is the 5 ways)

Let’s go. (what to say on the comment solely depend on your understanding of the topic or what you are commenting on)

  1. Although she has a small follower base, still look at your follower and see which one is more likely to come to your post if you ask them to. (start with the most recent one first)
  2. Go to the Notifications page to see if there any clue on who you need to interact with. (detail will be release on the next post, with the advance steps)
  3. Look at who you are following and ask yourself is their niche fully align with yours? (go to the one that you most resonate and start commenting on their most recent or better performing posts.)
  4. Base on your recent article, what is your niche or main focus on the articles. Search or simply check the popular post under the For you section to start commenting.
  5. If you see claps but not comment on your post, you should reach out by commenting on their recent post as they were once interested in what you have to say. That goes for the claps under what you commented on other posts as well.

There you have it, these 5 will be more than enough to overwhelm you for a while. If any questions, of course you can ask me but I rather you figure it out first, so it sticks as an habit that you own and not an unwanted house work. (there are multiple benefit of commenting, just to name a few, improve short form content generating along with idea generation, faster summarizing reaction to email or other forms of conversation and embrace your level of awareness when interaction with people)

I can easily sell this info./steps through a funnel. However by the time I launch it the info, may be irrelevant so I like to share what is fresh and working at the moment for me. (Therefore, you should act now)

And remember to clap and comment. (You are supporting a community indirectly and me as well)

Done.

Thanks for reading this one.
