    100M+ Views a Year: How to Build Distribution on X

    What does it actually take to turn social media attention into business growth? In this episode of SaaS Real Talk, we break down how founders can use X and LinkedIn to build distribution, reach the right people, and turn content into real business opportunities. We talk about building an audience from zero, why X still has underpriced attention, how to choose the right platform for your business, and why millions of views can be worthless without the right intent. We also get into cold outreach, including a simple three-part DM framework, why you shouldn’t try to sell in DMs, and where AI and Grok actually fit into the workflow. Plus, we discuss what really performs on X today, why long-form posts are making a comeback, and why focusing on one thing for long enough may matter more than constantly chasing the next opportunity.
