What worked
- The post text makes a strong, time-bound claim that Q1 earnings season was great for software and that this was the best quarter by a long shot in about five years.

- The post is branded and includes a source line, and it generated many quotes, which helped it travel beyond the account's usual audience.
What to borrow
We could take a timely moment like the end of an earnings season, make one clear claim about our own data, and show it as a simple line chart with a source line and our brand on it.
Careful
Do not copy the low design polish or low self-labelling, and do not over-read the result as proof that any chart will spread, since the account already had a large reach and the quote rate was in the top quarter.
