What worked
- The post pairs a bar chart about heart attack patients with normal cholesterol levels with a clear personal call to action, telling people to show the chart to their doctor.

- It uses a strong emotional hook, calling heart attacks the most preventable cause of death, which drives saves and shares.
What to borrow
We could take a counterintuitive finding from our own data, show it as a simple bar chart, and attach one clear action plus a few concrete numbers people can repeat.
Careful
Do not over-read the low design polish or medium self labelling as the reason it worked, and do not assume the quote rate was high, since it sat in the bottom quarter.
