How to build an audience on Twitter (with Matthew Kobach) 📈
Hi there,
Welcome to the month of December! 🙌 It's been an exciting time here at Buffer. We reached multiple milestones this week, which have made us really reflect on the Buffer journey thus far.
On Monday, Nov. 30, Buffer celebrated its 10th birthday. 🎂 Yay! It's been ten years since Joel, our CEO, first launched the first version of Buffer. Our team is so happy to have reached this milestone and super grateful for everyone that has joined us along the way! Read reflections from Joel about the last ten years at Buffer.
On Wednesday, Dec. 2, we released the 200th episode of The Science of Social Media podcast. This episode features Matthew Kobach breaking down how to build an audience on Twitter. (It's one of the best episodes we've produced.) Listen in to this episode here. Here's to another 200! 🥂
On Thursday, December 3, I published our third #BufferBrandSpotlight where I had the chance to feature Shakivla Todd, Marketing Associate at IFundWomen, and ask her some questions about how they integrate their marketing and community building to foster inclusive digital spaces. Read about her community tactics and strategy here. In today’s newsletter:

⚡️ What's New at Buffer
Twitter has over 321 million monthly active users, and it’s the perfect platform to build an audience — either for your personal brand or on behalf of your company. But how do you actually get people to follow your account, and engage with the content you share?
To dig into all-things Twitter growth, we're joined by Matthew Kobach. Since early 2019, Matthew has built an audience of over 85,000 followers on his personal Twitter account and in just a couple of months, he's helped grow Fast's Twitter following to over 20,000. In this post, Joel Gascoigne, our CEO and Co-Founder, reflects back on the past ten years. He digs into how Buffer has come to be a leading social media management platform and a team of nearly 90 people working remotely worldwide, with our own approach and culture. In this post, we give you a behind-the-scenes look at how IFundWomen, the go-to funding marketplace for women-owned businesses, integrates their marketing and community building to foster inclusive digital spaces.
Woohoo, you made it to the end!
