How to Quickly Grow on Social Media: "Let's Connect" DM Growth Hack

The "Let's Connect" Message strategy is a powerful approach for new accounts that many people don't know about.

It's called networking DMs - you simply DM people from your ideal audience, not trying to sell, but genuinely connecting!

Here are some great message templates:

"Hey {name}, just looking for connections, don't worry I'm not trying to sell you anything just trying to connect, are you also using X for business or just enjoying the content?"

"Yo {name}, seed oils are absolute trash, hope you aren't consuming them, curious are you still consuming them bro?"

"Hey {name}, Netflix is for absolute bots, people who watch it everyday should be doing something better with their life, do you agree?"

There are many ways to go about it, but the goal is to not be salesy.

I have 800 followers on X and an engaged audience (@fantasmadev).

When I got started, I'd send 100 DMs like this per day.

Why?

People just checked out my profile and it boosted me in the algorithm.

Plus, whenever I made a good post, my content showed up in the feed of everyone I DMed.

But Justin, you say, I can't manage 100 conversations.

Yes, you can. It's so simple to do and high leverage for growing your accounts.

Here's the typical flow:

I send the first message.

They say: "Great to connect!"

I say: "That's great, I'm working on software, what are you working on?"

They say: "Working on..."

I say: "Awesome, best of luck, hope to see you more on X."

Done, that's it, barely any more back and forth.

And yes, if I liked them, I'd do more.

But this may not be for everyone, and that's okay, just telling you a trick that does work.

With DM Dad, you can automate doing this and grow super fast.

I used DM Dad to send these messages and dozens of others did too and saw great results.

They get 100s of new followers through the networking "Lets Connect" DMs.

They pop up way more in the feed of their ideal audience.

They get more engagement on their posts so more people see their content.

I've had people get sales months later from these DMs.

It's a growth hack strategy that works with short-term and long-term benefits.

Check it out and try it for a day, see what happens... I dare you.
