A while ago, I posted a simple question in this community.
Nothing fancy.
No pitch.
Just real curiosity.
🔥 180+ comments later… I realized something powerful:
It wasn’t the post that worked.
It was the approach to replying.
That’s when I started using this thing called the ACA Framework ... and it changed how I connect online.
Here’s how it works (thanks @Alex Hormozi):
1️⃣ Acknowledge: Show the person you actually read their comment
2️⃣ Compliment or Associate: Connect with them (genuinely)
3️⃣ Ask a Question: Keep the conversation going
Since I’ve started using this, I’ve had more:
✅ Meaningful comments
✅ Real convos in the DMs
✅ People booking calls without pitching
Here’s a real example from one of my posts 👇
So…
💬 What’s your go-to strategy to build momentum and relationships in here?
I’d love to hear what’s working for you 👇
