If you go through the process once and don’t get verified, no worries. You can try again in 30 days. I have tried to verify my personal account (@janilehtola) many times over several years, but there is no way that gonna ever happen. Using Twitter Ads and other tools won’t help at all in this verification process. It seems that Twitter won’t verify this @NovaEmpiria business account either.
