Want your post to go viral?
I think I can help you...
Who doesn’t want their posts to go viral?
“But how the heck do I make it happen?”
This had got me stumped for MONTHS.
Been experimenting like crazy and other than an accidental one of a random question…things were dry.

But I couldn’t just keep posting questions and risk becoming a flaky NO ONE with no personality of my own.
I would rather die.
So, kept digging until I stumbled upon a post from Taylin Simmonds about how “polar opinions“ can bring sky-high engagements.
Wrote a post to try it out.
And it blew up.
1.6K impressions, 212 engagements, 34 followers.
Yup, from a single post.
Before this, I would be up in the clouds if I even managed to scrape even 500 impressions.
Why does this work?
Imagine this...
You're driving a car and suddenly notice a commotion. Won't you be tempted to check out?
Or you see a guy wearing a suit and a skirt. Won't you bob your head and be like, "Wait, what?"
We humans are naturally attracted to anyone and anything that challenges the norms.
(Look at any public hero, you'll know)
So I put together a simple controversial template so you can make your posts go viral (and convert the casual audience into dedicated followers)
1st line : Hook, a polar statement
2nd line : Build up on the suspense
Body : Justify your point (can't just claim apples are blue and be done with that)
CTA : What was the goal of your post?
Ending : Make it stickier than the gum under your high-school bench (this is the part readers remember most)
Here, also attached the post in question so you can use it as a reference.

Excuse the crappy handwriting 😋
There, now you have the recipe to make a viral controversial concoction. Test it out and see how potent it is.
BONUS: Share the mind-boggling results in another post to build that authority.
The 1st step to scale your brand is forming a crowd who SEES you.
Next email will cover more of this. Stay tuned.
Until then,
Take care, stay safe and drink lots of water.
Love,
