## Why it works

A memorable phrase is easy to repeat on the range. Seeing it work right away makes it stick.

## How to make it

1. Pick a two-to-five-word cue
2. Say or chant it in the first seconds
3. Show the live rep or freeze-frame at the key frame

## Hook formula

[Short cue]. This is the feel you need on every [shot]

## 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.
