Aiming to make at least 50% of the next 10 posts carousels will systematically test whether this closes the gap between the current 5.36% and the upper end of the nano-tier benchmark of 8%.

The Reels ER of 4.1% already meets the floor of the nano-tier benchmark (3.5–8%), meaning Reels are performing solidly and have room to grow with more volume and iteration. Committing to posting at least 2 Reels per week for the next 30 days and tracking which hooks or topics push individual Reels above the current 4.1% Reels ER baseline will help in crossing 10K followers, where estimated brand deal value and tier positioning both upgrade.
