What this niche is actually fighting
- morning rush then a dead afternoon
- latte art that never makes the algorithm
- regulars who never bring a friend
What a good week of posts should do
- sell drip bags and merch
- make the 3pm pastry case move
- turn laptop campers into weekday catering

These were oat latte at 11 in Austin. It is 3:12 and I would rather you eat them than I freeze them.
This one is a template. Viralytics writes yours from what’s working in your niche this week.
Write mine with ViralyticsHow to land the line before the next ticket
Say it once, then pour. If the wand starts, let the caption carry the rest.
- Write the hook on a cup sleeve and park it by the grinder so you are not composing over a pitcher.
- Face the pastry case, not the window; windows blow out faces at 8am.
- If a six-drink ticket lands, finish the drinks, then take the line. A stale hook is better than a burnt shot.
- Name the lot in the file so you do not pair Guatemala audio with an Ethiopia bag.
Mistakes that waste a take
- Whispering a 25-word hook into a screaming steam wand.
- Pointing at ‘coffee’ instead of the drink that has to move.
- Using a Brooklyn café caption when you are in a hotel lobby in Austin.
- Promising a secret menu you will resent making.
