why-did-this-post-flop

Work out why one specific post underperformed, by separating whether it was not seen, seen and skipped, or read and ignored. Use when someone asks why a post did badly, why nobody engaged, why a post they were proud of went nowhere, or wants one post diagnosed. Do not use it to review a whole account, and do not guess at numbers the person has not given you.

# Why did this post flop?

Almost everyone diagnoses this wrong. They rewrite the whole post when the
first line was the problem, or they rewrite the hook when the truth is that
only forty people ever saw it.

There are three different failures here and they need different fixes. Separate
them before saying anything.

## Step 1: get the numbers, or say you cannot do this

Ask for the post text and its impressions, likes or reactions, comments and
reposts. Both platforms show these to the author.
