Utilize Twitter Spaces
Twitter spaces is a feature that allows users to create live voice-only chat rooms to discuss certain topics. This feature is perfect for artists that want to engage more directly with fans! On twitter spaces, there can be up to 3 hosts so if you decide to utilize those spots, choose people that you know can keep a conversation going based on the topic you choose to discuss. Try to plan out your discussion as it will make the flow of the “event” much easier. You are able to schedule these spaces up to two weeks in advance so don’t forget to promote it and even encourage followers to promote it as well so they don’t miss out!
Once you get 1,000+ followers, you’re able to utilize the ticketed spaces! Ticketed spaces are a great way to host meet + greets, certain conversations and any type of event that you would want to monetize on twitter spaces!
Utilize Twitter for Professionals
Twitter for professionals was created for users that have businesses, or maybe are creators, publishers or developers to showcase and highlight their content, products, and services directly through Twitter for free. This foundation provides features like Twitter Ads, Quick Promote, Advanced Profile Features, and even a Shop Spotlight! These features are good for musicians that are ready to introduce the business side of things to their fans through their Twitter!
