If you have a Twitter Ads account, you can get some interesting data on your organic tweets (even those you are not using for promotion).

If you don’t have a Twitter Ads account, you can sign up for one at https://analytics.twitter.com – submit your payment information.  Set up a promoted campaign in the future and cancel it once you have access to analytics.

Sign in to your Twitter Ads account and click Analytics (along the top menu bar). Looking at the information available:
