Show a clean on-screen measurement diagram or labelled swatch card that viewers must pause or save. It worked for 3 accounts, with a median of 3x their usual reach. Type: Editing trick. Seen as: Voiceover, Talking head, Video.

## Why it works

Dense reference information on screen turns a short video into something to save and copy later.

## How to make it

1. Show the finished item
2. Flash one clean graphic with exact measurements or names
3. Hold it long enough to screenshot

## Hook formula

[Project] pattern: exact measurements, save this

## How this is measured

- Every post is compared with its own account's usual reach, not with other accounts. "14x their usual" means the post got 14 times the median views of that account's recent posts.
- TikTok videos and Instagram Reels are measured on views. Instagram carousels have no view count, so they are measured on likes against the account's usual likes, and say so.
- A post makes the library at 2x its account's usual or more. A format is a repeatable move (what is said or shown, or how it is edited) that several accounts used in breakout posts. It is listed here once it worked for 3 or more different accounts.
- Formats rank on how many accounts they worked for and how far above usual, damped so a fluke on one tiny account cannot outrank a format that worked for ten.
