*Inactive Account* Follow me over at my new account: @DonovanBrooks_ Tweets ≠ advice

[Donovan Brooks, CFP® @old_dbrooks]

Hey you, yes you!

Unfollow this account and consider following me over at @DonovanBrooks_ !

[Donovan Brooks, CFP® @old_dbrooks]

Still getting new follows on this old account. Unfollow this account and follow @DonovanBrooks_

[Donovan Brooks, CFP® @old_dbrooks]

@MikePolicarNGP @JamesClear Awesome! This is a great idea.

You also got retweeted by @JamesClear 😳👀

[Donovan Brooks, CFP® @old_dbrooks]

@TKopelman Not to mention that many of them are breaking the law 👀

[Donovan Brooks, CFP® @old_dbrooks]

@lady__bost 1.25x - 1.75x depending on how fast/slow the speaker is and dead space

@DaveRamsey Free for the individual but it costs for the financial advisor.

[Donovan Brooks, CFP® @old_dbrooks]

I'm making this account inactive so you can follow my new account over at @DonovanBrooks_ as I tweet more regularly and engage more often!

Side stepping the Twitter algo for everyone's benefit. The data says it's better to start over than try to over come the algo.

[Donovan Brooks, CFP® @old_dbrooks]

@samuelsdeane Well said! Talking one without the other is a disservice.

[Donovan Brooks, CFP® @old_dbrooks]

I started a new account, follow me over at @DonovanBrooks_ and unfollow me here.

[Donovan Brooks, CFP® @old_dbrooks]

Okay so I've had some tough conversations w/ myself & have decided that I'll be investing more time & effort into growing my presence on Twitter.

Because I've been so inactive & inconsistent the Twitter algo is against me.

Feel free to follow my new account @DonovanBrooks_

[Donovan Brooks, CFP® @old_dbrooks]

Here’s a data driven thread explaining the above.

[Andrea Michalek 🎯 @ThatAndreaM]

I dropped my twitter account with 1200 followers and started over because:

• Algorithm favors high % engaged followers
• New account "magic growth boost"
• @thatroblennon did it and hit 2,000 followers in 1 week

Want to know if a fresh account is better?

Here's my data. 👇

Hey everyone! I’ve had some concerned friends reach out so i wanted to re-address.

My account hasn’t been hacked and I don’t have an imposter (although that would be flattering).

You can follow me over at @DonovanBrooks_ & unfollow me here.

More on my decision 👇🏽

@danielle_fava Only Robert DeNiro in The Intern can do this.

[Donovan Brooks, CFP® @old_dbrooks]

@ThatAndreaM @thatroblennon Do you think this would still be effective by creating a new account and transferring an old handle?

[Donovan Brooks, CFP® @old_dbrooks]

@ThatAndreaM @thatroblennon Wow super helpful. Will look more into this!

[Donovan Brooks, CFP® @old_dbrooks]

@T_Gatzemeier Absolutely 💯

[Donovan Brooks, CFP® @old_dbrooks]

@robertjforrest I don’t have a mortgage at the moment but they were 2-3x my old one 😅

[Donovan Brooks, CFP® @old_dbrooks]

Car payments, and high ones at that, aren't a flex.

[Donovan Brooks, CFP® @old_dbrooks]

@Broc_Buckles Absolutely!

[Donovan Brooks, CFP® @old_dbrooks]

Broc and Peter will actually let you know which route is cheaper which is nice!

[Broc Buckles @Broc_Buckles]

It's always cheaper to do a term ladder right?

NOPE!

We get a lot of questions about term ladders and if they are always cheaper than doing the full amount for a longer term.

In this video we look at:

1,000,000 20 year term vs. 500k for 10 and 20 years

You may be surprised!

[Donovan Brooks, CFP® @old_dbrooks]

@jeremywalter Absolutely. I was speaking more generally to the men out there to include guys that maybe don’t have that option.

For men in our profession that want to and can run a business…..💯

[Donovan Brooks, CFP® @old_dbrooks]

Husbands/dads with stay-at-home wives….

Go home if you can for lunch. You give mom a breather plus you get to see your kids.

It’s time well invested…and appreciated.
