What I learned after reaching 2,000 note followers: The essential elements for success on note...

Hello. This is Soda.

Are you struggling with these concerns?

There is a common thread among many people who struggle on note.

That is...

'Posting from your own perspective rather than the reader's perspective.'

'If I just post every day, it will grow'

'If my followers increase, it will sell'

Even if you keep writing articles thinking that way, it rarely leads to results.

In fact, people who succeed on note think about what readers want before they think about 'writing'.

In this article, I will explain in detail the 'points that many people overlook' that I noticed while managing my note account up to 2,000 followers.

1. Being too impatient is the cause

The same can be said for Threads and note; just because you started doesn't mean you will see results immediately.

Even so, many people are too eager to see quick results.

As a result,

・They end up writing thin, shallow articles.

・They mass-produce articles that are just dumped onto AI.

・They end up with articles that contain almost none of their own experiences or thoughts.

While such articles might increase your numbers temporarily, they will not leave a lasting impression on readers.

What is needed to get results on note is a "long-term perspective," not a "short-term perspective."

By accumulating experience, even if it's little by little, and turning those experiences into articles, you can build a following that thinks, "I want to read this because it's this person."

② Writing articles that you could just ask AI about

Until around last summer, AI had not yet become so widespread, and it was an era where articles were easily read even if you only included a little bit of your own personal experience.

However, the situation has changed significantly now.

With the evolution of AI, we have entered an era where even those who have never written before can produce a plausible note in just a few minutes.

As a result, many articles that seem to have been created solely by AI are being posted on note.

Therefore, no matter how carefully you write an article, if people think that "AI can provide the same information," it becomes harder to get read and harder to sell.

That is precisely why, from now on, it is not just about delivering information,

"I want to read it because it's this person's article," or "I want to buy it because it's this person."

It will become more important than ever to share content that makes people feel that way.

Let's accumulate value that AI cannot write, such as your own experiences, stories of failure, and things you have actually tried.

3. Posting only on note

Even if you only post on note, it is not easy to grow significantly.

This is because note has almost no viral potential.

In other words, to get people to read your articles, you need to bring in readers from outside.

The platform I recommend is Threads.

The reason is simple: among the many social media platforms out there, it is relatively easier to grow on, and it is easier for new people to discover you.

Continue posting on Threads in the same genre as your note, and guide those who become interested in your posts to your note.

Then, have them read your free articles, build a relationship of trust, and have them purchase your paid articles, memberships, or magazines.

Of course, it is not easy.

However, compared to competing only on note, operating while building trust on Threads increases the likelihood of achieving results.

In conclusion.

Thank you for reading until the end.

note is by no means easy, but if you continue, you will eventually find the secret to growing.

And above all, I think note is an amazing platform because it is incredibly fun, you can aim for monetization, and you can do all of that for free.

I also intend to continue writing articles on note more actively in the future, and I want to gain both revenue and trust.
