Topics covered

Twitter 0 → 1

Dive deep on the tools, strategies, and analytics that power how to grow on Twitter. Learn how to write threads, build lists, and meet lifelong friends.

Start Your Build in Public Journey

Being fully transparent about a new endeavor is frightening. Yet, cultivating insightful feedback and a supportive fanbase is an outsized reward. Learn alongside a group of insightful peers the roadmap to effectively build in public and cultivate an online community.

Systems of Effective Creators

Go behind the scenes on how creators are managing their workflows. What tools are they using? How are they optimizing inputs? When do they create?

Get traction on your projects and products

Your latest online product flopped because you could not get enough viewers. You wasted hundreds of hours but failed to create traction. Learn how to leverage Twitter as a distribution vector for future products and MVPs so you never post into the void again.

What Alumni Think:

They gave the playbook to grow to 50k+ followers from tools to use to people to network with.

Dave Kline

Founder, MGMT Accelerator | Prev: Bridgewater, Moodys Analytics

Makers Mark was super helpful for getting from 1k followers to 10k. I learned a lot about the tricks behind threads, how to repurpose content, and how to organize my content dashboard. I went from a side hustle writer to a full-time writer in the 6 months following the course.

Jason Levin

Writer, Cyber Patterns / The Defiant

"There's so many nuances to building an audience on Twitter. Aadit & Brandon breaks it all down in a super clear way. They share the tools and tactics they used and helped think through some threads. Impressed with the dedication of other community members too!"

David Kobrosky

Co-Founder and CEO of Intros AI

"This course really helped me think about my content strategy as a whole. There were so many practical tidbits that I’ll take with me on my journey as a creator. Also made a ton of great connections!"

Michael Riddering

Lead Designer @ Maven | Founder @Figma Academy

"Audience building is the next universal skill to run our careers and Makers Mark's workshops provide powerful frameworks to unlock your positioning & writing line; threads will finally come up much more easily."

Sonia Litwin

3x founder. Grew a solo biz to $1M+

If you have been sitting on the sidelines like I was, use Makers Mark to start your journey! It helped me add over 8k followers during the cohort. And I was able to do it by making friends :).

Siddharth Mohan

Founder of Yembo.ai (Series A)

Brandon and Aadit helped me show the value in doubling down and building consistency. I grew to over 20k followers, helping me land a job in web3 and give me the conviction to leave my job at Deloitte.

Bernie

Co-Founder Vinci DAO | Prev: Deloitte

Brandon & Aadit helped me turn Twitter into a steady source for sales leads (+20/week) and get 2 offers from well-known investors.

Murtaza Bambot

Founder of Heartbeat.chat

I left with a solid gameplan and understanding of how to write effective threads and gain traction in the platform. Highly recommend to newcomers and pros alike.

Silvio Perez

Agency Owner (B2B Marketing)

"Aadit and Brandon were a huge inspiration on my twitter journey so I took his course to learn from the duo. Guess what? I built an audience of 100K. The course taught me things I thought I wasn't good at: 1. How to master writing threads. 2. How to leverage community and grow together. 3. How to use Twitter List 4. Content Creation

Module 4: Online Networking Frameworks

What you’ll learn about our networking frameworks is that we network less, and befriend more. Too many people “get to business” too soon. Our approach to networking is to play the long-term game with long-term people. One key way we have succeeded in meeting our role models is the “Permissionless Progress” concept.
