I've analyzed thousands of organic TikToks. Here are the 8 organic TikTok tricks that will help you make $50k in revenue👇 ⚠️ WARNING: This thread will make you a lot of money.

the highest ROI SEO work that exists and almost nobody does it go to google search console pull every query where you rank position 4-15 with 1,000+ impressions these are pages google already thinks you're relevant for but you're not winning yet the intent signal is already proven now scrape the top 3 pages that ARE ranking above you for each of those queries feed yours + theirs into claude and ask "what is their page covering that mine isn't" claude will hand you exact sections to add, questions to answer, angles you missed do this for your top 20 queries and you'll move more organic traffic in a week than most companies do in a quarter of writing new blog posts from scratch google is literally telling you what to write about and you're ignoring it

go to their tagged tab find every creator who posted about them organically these people already make content in your category their audience already expects it DM them you just skipped 40 hours of research and the creators are already warm because they clearly care about the space now do this for all 10 of your competitors congratulations you have a mass list of proven creators who actually move product

I never thought I’d be influenced to buy a literal 💩 camera but here we are

if your entire friend circle isn't talking about turboquant and how google just made it so you can burn 100k tokens on your grandma's smart fridge you need a new friend circle

@TheCoppinger Just an average Charlie side quest

@SMB_Attorney A deep pain like no other

POV: You're the COO of a fast-growing start-up law firm called SMB Law Group LLP. After years of meticulously refining your firm's website, you sit back and watch in horror as Claude Cowork demolishes the site's UX.

@generick_ez "product led growth"

Thanks for the suggestion, Okara, I'm sure this tweet will go mad viral.

@bhuang_ Treating creators purely as a distribution method (and pricing it as such) is literally the reason 80% of brands fail with influencer marketing while the other 20% print

You pay a plumber $200 for 20 minutes because you know you can't do it yourself. A creator charges $5k for a post and brands act like they're being scammed. You're not paying for a post. You're paying for the trust that you can't buy, can't fake, and can't build in a quarter.

the best salespeople in 2026 aren't closers they're people who know which API to call

@peer_rich this goes through my head nearly every day

the male urge to build a GPU cluster at home

if you're an early stage founder and you're not having claude code read your intercom tickets once a week you're flying blind literally just paste the last 50 tickets into claude and ask "what are the top 5 things users are confused about" "which of these users sound like they're about to churn" "what feature has been requested the most this month" takes 4 minutes replaces a $90k/yr customer success manager and a product manager arguing over what to build next the answers are already in your inbox you're just not reading them

my friend's wife is a therapist private practice, no technical background whatsoever she used claude code to build a system that scrapes psychology today listings in her zip code finds therapists who aren't accepting new patients pulls their specialties then runs google ads targeting those exact specialties in those exact zip codes she went from 4 clients a week to a 3 month waitlist a therapist did this what's your excuse

We raised $64M for this moment: Introducing Bustem. Bustem scans the internet to find and eliminate 100% of counterfeits RT + comment “SCAN” and I’ll send you a list of every scammer targeting your brand 🫵

@oscrhong very interesting idea, enjoyed reading a lot of the post-mortems, really well written and researched. Would be interesting to give something like Paperclip or @doanythingapp and let it relaunch MVPs of a bunch of these and see what hits.

woah! was out (touching grass) most of the day and didn't realise this blew up! startups.rip started as a humble swipefile I kept of startup post-mortems which made me think: why not run deep research on startups where founders didn't write post-mortems so I can learn from them too? then realising: if we know in great detail what a startup tried and why it failed, why can't we revive it in one-click? would love to hear what you think!

@TheCoppinger Need this

A few years ago I rented a small, cheap office space to hack from The goal was to separate church and state, so to speak: somewhere I had to physically get up, get dressed, and go to Highly recommend! (bonus: you can use it as a poker club for your friends 😎)

@49agents Interesting, I feel like the prompt engineering part is probably the easier problem to solve. UX seems to be the tricky part. How to make something feel truly fluid and seamless

ive thought about this exact problem. most AI writing tools are either too passive (just suggestions) or too aggressive (rewriting everything). what worked for me was using an AI agent with a specific prompt framework - tell it your draft, then ask it to find 3 weaknesses in your argument. keeps it adversarial but constructive. claude is actually solid for this if you frame it right

Is there a really good AI copilot for writing? i'm super happy with my workflow for AI-driven writing (marketing content etc.) but am struggling for when *I* want to write and want an AI to challenge me and help develop my thoughts as I go.

@PromptSlinger Interesting, appreciate your thoughts

@ElliotPadfield Fair point, that's a different problem. You want a live sparring partner in the margin, not a post-hoc reviewer. Cursor's chat panel gets close for code. For prose, I haven't seen anyone nail it yet. Honestly might be worth vibing out. That UI gap is real.

@PromptSlinger This is great for review but I'm looking for something that can give thoughts, input and feedback secondary to the main writing interface as I'm writing. It's definitely possible just wondering if someone has packaged it into a nice UI instead of having to vibecode it myself

@ElliotPadfield You already have the tool. You're just prompting it wrong. Tell it: 'Argue with me. Question every claim. Never compliment.' Any AI becomes a brutal writing partner once you stop letting it be polite
