1. The Positioning Triangle
Anchor on 'persona + product + scenario'. Persona builds trust, product converts, scenario drives reach. Miss one and the account stalls under 10K.
2. The Content Formula
Hook (0-3s) → Value/twist (15s) → CTA (7s). The hook needs a tension point inside 1.5s or completion rate stays under 20%.
3. Cadence
New accounts: 1-2/day. Steady state: 3-4/day. Prime time: US-East 7-10pm / 7-9am. The first 30 minutes of engagement decides over 70% of distribution.
4. Matrix Synergy
Main + UGC + founder-IP. Main carries trust, UGC tests volume, founder builds long-term fan equity.
5. Weekly Review
Five metrics every week: completion, like rate, comment rate, follower delta, product page CTR. Any 3-week dip = topic refactor.
