Stat Flex
Open on a huge, concrete number — views, money, or scale — then tie it to a tiny cause so the claim feels undeniable and the viewer stays for the how.
When
Use this when you have a real, surprising result you can quantify and a small, copyable cause behind it — best for teaching a tactic, teardown, or before/after story where the number earns the scroll-stop.
Best for
Growth and marketing creators sharing test resultsBusiness and sales coaches with measurable case studiesCopywriters and email marketers showing before/after metrics
