Lesson 4

Post Structure

Post DNA: Structure of a High-Performing Post

1. Hook (First line)

The hook’s job is to earn the next second of attention.

  • Stops the scroll
  • Triggers emotion or curiosity
  • Promises value without explaining everything

2. Core Content (2–10 sentences)

This is where the post delivers on the hook.

  • Expands on the hook instead of repeating it
  • Delivers specific insight, clarity, or value
  • Uses storytelling, examples, or data
  • Keeps momentum so the reader continues

3. Call to Action (Final line)

The CTA should feel natural, not forced.

  • Relevant to what was just shared
  • Invites engagement (comment, reflect, respond)
  • Simple and easy to act on
