A daily digest of posts that stood out

You will have a list of accounts, a daily five-minute routine and a weekly pattern note.

Before you start

  • Ten public accounts in your niche
  • Five minutes a day

Step 1: Choose ten accounts

Pick accounts that post often in your topic. Include small ones, not only the biggest.

Step 2: Spot outliers daily

  1. Open each account’s recent posts.
  2. Mark any that did clearly better than that account’s usual.
  3. Paste the first line, format and date into your notes.

Use only what is public. Do not use tools that log in as someone else or break a platform’s rules.

Step 3: Find weekly patterns

Prompt you can copy

Here are this week’s standout posts, with first line and format. List two patterns across them and one thing they do differently from my usual posts. Do not guess reasons that are not in my notes. [paste notes]

Step 4: Use the pattern

Pick one pattern and test it in one of your own posts this week. Use your own words and examples.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Tracking too many accounts
  • Using tools that break platform rules
  • Copying wording
  • Guessing why a post worked

Final checklist

  • I follow ten accounts
  • I note outliers daily
  • I tested one pattern in my own words
