Green shoots showing up in software? For the companies who reported so far, this quarter was the highest aggregate net new ARR added since Q4 ‘21. Is this the start of a trend, or just an easy QoQ compare off the lower Q2 ‘24?

Why it spread

This post spread because it hit a hot topic that week, with 101 likes against the account's typical 27, making it 3.7x the account's normal performance, and it drew 15,290 views plus 14 reposts and 23 saves, even though quotes were 0 and the quote rate sat in the bottom quarter.

What worked

  • The framing asked a direct question about whether green shoots in software were a real trend or just an easy quarter over quarter compare, which invited debate.
  • The chart showed quarterly net new ARR added for cloud software as a simple bar chart, making the highest aggregate net new ARR since Q4 '21 easy to grasp at a glance.
  • The post rode a hot topic that week and was branded, giving it a timely hook even with low design polish and low self labelling.

What to borrow

We could take our own quarterly data, show one clear bar comparison, and ask whether the latest rise is a real trend or just an easy compare against a weak prior period.

Careful

Do not over-read the spread as proof of chart quality, since design polish and self labelling were low, there was no source line, source reach was in the bottom quarter, and the main reasons listed were a hot topic that week and many quotes.
