Two Posts Went Viral in 3 Days—Here's What I Did

Here’s a look at my results after just two posts... Sounds incredible, right?

Nah, I’m kidding.

Take another look—notice how many posts I’ve actually written.

If you want to grow, it’s not just about posting content. It’s about spending time where it matters:

• Engage with other creators.

• Reply to everyone who interacts with you.

• Send genuine DMs and build real connections, at least 10 DM’s…

Growth isn’t magic—it’s effort.

You’ve been working hard, posting every day, hoping something will click. But nothing changes.

Your likes? Barely there. Comments? Nonexistent. DMs? Empty.

And let’s be honest—you’ve probably ignored engagement because it feels like a waste of time or too much work. I know, I did the same.

For the longest time, I thought, “Just posting is enough.” Wrong. I wasn’t showing up where it mattered. No strategy, no connection, no consistency.

When I finally stopped being lazy and started engaging, my stats exploded in just one week.

After realizing I was missing something, I decided to change my approach. I now post three times a day, write one thread a week, and share three long-form texts weekly.

I also leave +50 comments a day and send 12 DMs daily to connect with others who support my work.

“50 comments a day???”

Yes…

It’s not rocket science. I’m serious. Let me tell you something—I didn’t care about engagement 3 months ago. I was all about creating content and scheduling it, and that’s it.

Big mistake.

No engagement, no conversations.

Just a big ego.

Was it hard at first?

Absolutely. But the results?

Worth every second.

Right now, I’m doing this:

So, I reworked my approach:

Content (21 Post’s):

Short Form

• 7x Problem Solving (Growth)

Medium Form

• 3x Problem-Solving (Growth)

• 4x Personal (Growth)

Long Form

• 4x Problem-Solving (Authenticity + Authority) → IMAGES/VIDEO

• 3x Personal (Authenticity + Authority) → IMAGES/VIDEO

• 1 Thread (Authenticity + Authority)

Engagement Plan:

• +50 comments a day

• 12 friendly DMs daily

• Reply to all

This made all the difference.

Now, I'm having a blast connecting with others and supporting their growth because that’s what truly grows a brand.

Why Building a Personal Brand Matters

Think about it—your personal brand is your proof of value. It’s everything you’ve learned and achieved, out there for the world to see.

A strong personal brand beats a paper résumé any day. Imagine a 15-year-old with 13k posts and real results versus someone with a degree but no online presence. Who are you going to trust?

My Plan for 2025

This year, I’m doubling down on X, LinkedIn, Threads, and Instagram. It’s not easy, but excuses are overrated. I’m focusing on four things:

• Content creation

• Engagement

• Client outreach

• Building systems

Perfection? Not the goal. Progress is.

What I’ve Learned

Building a personal brand is a marathon, not a sprint. It takes time, discipline, and consistent effort. Along the way, you’ll need to learn:

• Copywriting

• Marketing

• Sales

• Design

• Storytelling

• SEO

• Social Media Management

• Networking

• Time Management

My Challenge for You

Stop wasting time.

Pick a platform, start building, and focus on one skill at a time. Invest in yourself—take a course, hire a mentor, or watch YouTube (but skip the fluff).

Cut out distractions like Netflix, video games, or anything that doesn’t push you forward.

Give it 6 months. If nothing changes, go take a break.

But if you stick with it, you’ll see results. No shortcuts, no excuses—just results.
