Growing a Twitter account from scratch is tough, especially when the followers you have aren't the right audience. When I started managing a new brand’s Twitter account, I quickly realized that even though we had some followers, they weren’t engaging, and our content wasn’t reaching the right people.
I tried different strategies to attract genuine, interested followers, but they didn’t work. Then, I found a better way—identifying mutual followers between competitor accounts.
These are the users who follow two similar accounts in the same industry, making them highly likely to engage with my brand.

Failed Strategies Before Finding the Right One
Before I discovered how to find mutual followers, I tried a few tactics that didn’t bring the right audience:
➡️ Hashtags: I used trending industry hashtags, but they mostly attracted random users, not engaged followers.
➡️ Engagement Tricks: Liking, commenting, and retweeting posts from industry leaders didn’t create real connections.
➡️ Ads: Running paid Twitter ads brought in followers, but most didn’t engage after following.
I needed a better way to find people who were already interested in my industry. That’s when I realized that if someone follows two competitors in the same niche, they are highly likely to be interested in my content too.
Introducing Circleboom Twitter: More Than Just Account Comparison
To put this idea into action, I needed a tool that could compare Twitter accounts and analyze their followers.
That’s when I found Circleboom Twitter—an official partner of X that offers multiple tools to analyze, clean up, and grow Twitter accounts efficiently.
Here’s what Circleboom Twitter can do:
✅ Account Comparison – This feature lets you find mutual followers between two accounts in seconds. Instead of manually checking, it instantly reveals users who follow both accounts.
✅ Follower & Following Analytics – Get detailed insights into who follows you, who doesn’t follow back, and inactive followers that might be harming your engagement rate.
✅ Smart Search & Filtering – Instead of scrolling through endless lists, use filters to find high-quality accounts based on keywords, bio information, activity levels, and more.
While exploring Circleboom’s Account Comparison tool, I discovered that I could find users who follow two specific accounts—which meant I could target people who were already engaged with my industry competitors.

Why This Strategy Works (And How It Helps You Grow Faster)
Many Twitter growth strategies involve random guessing, but finding mutual followers between two accounts eliminates the uncertainty. Here’s why it’s effective:
🔹 Find Engaged Users Instantly – Instead of wasting time targeting random people, this method helps you find users who are already following two similar brands.
🔹 Increase Follow-Back Rates – Users who follow two similar accounts are more likely to follow your brand compared to those who follow only one competitor.
🔹 Improve Your Engagement Rate – Engaging with mutual followers ensures that your tweets reach people who are genuinely interested in your industry.
🔹 Target Warm Leads – If you’re using Twitter for business or marketing, mutual followers could be potential customers, since they already follow two competitors in your niche.
🔹 Make Twitter Growth Data-Driven – Instead of relying on trial and error, this strategy is based on real data and audience behavior.
