Four itinerary hooks and one that is just a greeting

Kristin Addis posts family travel, and four of these five hooks are the same shape: this is the perfect X itinerary with little kids. Vietnam. Switzerland. The most baby-friendly resort in Mexico. The top five baby and toddler-friendly resorts in Hawaii, part two.

The shape works because it names the constraint that makes the content hard to find. Plenty of people post Vietnam itineraries. Far fewer post Vietnam itineraries with a baby, and the person searching for the second one cannot use the first. The hook is doing the filtering that the category does not.

They did between 283,000 and 934,000 views, which is a tight band for travel. The best of them is the resort one, and it is the only hook claiming a superlative rather than offering a plan. The most baby-friendly all-inclusive in Mexico's Riviera Maya promises a decision made rather than a decision to make.

The outlier is the one with no information in it at all: hey yo, what's up yo did 1.1 million, the biggest in the set. It was posted the same day as the Mexico resort Reel, which rules out most of the timing explanations, and it suggests that even on a utility-shaped account the personality content can outrun the useful content.

Two practical things follow. First, the itinerary format is reliable and worth keeping: five Reels, none below 283,000, all of them findable by somebody with a specific problem. Second, the account is leaving something on the table by not posting more of whatever the greeting Reel was, and the honest caveat is that one data point is not a strategy.

What you can copy

  • Put the constraint in the hook. With little kids is what separates this from every other Vietnam itinerary on the platform.
  • Make the decision for the reader when you can. The resort Reel that picks one did more than double the itinerary Reels that lay out a plan.
  • Do not firewall your personality out of a utility account. The highest-performing Reel here contains no information whatsoever.
