# Practitioner's 'this tells me you…' checklist

A faith and spirituality format, measured November 8, 2026 by Volume. https://tryvolume.app/working/faith-and-spirituality/practitioner-s-this-tells-me-you-checklist

As an expert, list traits or placements that tell you someone is a certain special or wounded type, and reframe common experiences as signs. It worked for 5 accounts, with a median of 11x their usual reach. Type: Angle. Seen as: Talking head.

## Why it works

Viewers check themselves against the list and comment which ones they have. Credentials such as '2000+ charts' or 'as a psychic' make the diagnosis feel earned.

## How to make it

1. State your credential or sample size in the hook
2. List the traits or placements as a self-diagnosis
3. Flatter or reframe each one
4. Ask which ones they have

## Hook formula

[Placements/signs] that tell me (a [credential]) you're [special identity]

## 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.
