To succeed, every piece of social media content you produce must answer one question: "Can someone use this to solve a problem at their job tomorrow?"

For the uninitiated, that string—23 07 09, or July 9th, 2023—represents the single most significant inflection point for social media content since the introduction of the TikTok algorithm in 2020. What happened on that week fundamentally rewired the relationship between what you post and where you will be in five years.
