# Whole checklist crammed on a 7-second loop

A home and real estate format, measured November 8, 2026 by Volume. https://tryvolume.app/working/home-and-real-estate/whole-checklist-crammed-on-a-7-second-loop

Put a dense numbered list on a 5-7 second looping clip, or point to caption steps, so viewers have to pause, replay or save to read it all. It worked for 3 accounts, with a median of 18x their usual reach. Type: Editing trick. Seen as: Video.

## Why it works

The list is too long to read in one pass, so it drives replays and saves. Several small and mid-size accounts used the same move.

## How to make it

1. Pick a very short b-roll clip that loops
2. Overlay 3-10 specific, numbered items with exact figures
3. Or tease the steps and put the playbook in the caption

## Hook formula

[Number] [money-saving things] [audience] miss

## 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.
