Modern algorithms can surface any single piece of content to a massive audience of non-followers, regardless of past performance. This means marketers are always just one breakout post away from significant reach, making consistent experimentation more important than ever.

Social media has evolved into 'interest media.' The algorithm is so effective that the content itself—the words you use, your background, your appearance—is the primary targeting mechanism. Instead of chasing broad appeal, create content specifically for your ideal avatar, and the platform will find them for you.

Instead of centralizing all content on one brand account, ClickUp creates an ecosystem of pages like "ClickUp Comedy" and "ClickUp Memes." These niche accounts build their own dedicated audiences and can grow faster than the main brand page, creating multiple entry points into the ClickUp universe.

Stop worrying that producing both high-level 'sizzle' content and deep, technical content will make you seem inconsistent. Your audience is not a monolith. This 'and' approach appeals to different segments and creates more connection points, rather than alienating anyone.

Social media has shifted from 'social' to 'interest' media, where the algorithm targets users based on the content they consume. Making hyper-specific content for your target audience is the most effective form of targeting. Resist making broad content for vanity metrics, as it won't reach qualified buyers.

Instagram now lets users explicitly select topics for their Reels feed. This shift means creators with a tight, consistent content focus are more likely to be surfaced repeatedly. Accounts covering multiple disparate topics risk being filtered out as users narrow their preferences, making niche expertise more critical than ever for discovery.

The common advice to chop up a single video or blog post for every social platform is a myth. Each platform's algorithm and audience expectations demand native content. True growth comes from mastering one or two channels with tailored content, not from thinly spreading repurposed material across many.

Instead of reactively trying to please algorithms, proactively identify the best 'doorways'—specific platforms and content formats—to reach your ideal audience. This shifts the focus from chasing reach to strategically choosing where you appear and how you present your brand.

The era of building a follower list like an email list is over. Platforms now use an "interest graph," meaning a post from an account with few followers can go viral if the content is compelling. This shift democratizes reach and prioritizes content quality above all else.
