Our First Instagram Post Went Viral… and We Have No Idea Why!
When we posted our very first Stitch and Timber Co. teaser video, we weren’t expecting much. It was just a quick clip of Mike woodworking—no fancy edits, no big announcement—just a glimpse into the craftsmanship behind our handmade pieces. At the time, we had only 17 followers and figured it would be a quiet start.
But then… BOOM. 16.5K views in less than 24 hours. 🤯
Wait… What?!
We’re still scratching our heads trying to figure out how this happened. Maybe it was:
📅 The Power of Groundhog Day? – Did the universe decide to give us a little extra luck on February 2nd? Who knew the holiday for a weather-predicting rodent would align with our first viral moment?
🛠 Mike’s Woodworking Magic? – Let’s be real, watching someone create something by hand is always mesmerizing. Maybe people just love a good behind-the-scenes moment?
📲 Accidental Algorithm Hack? – Maybe the Instagram gods smiled upon us, pushing our video to just the right people at the right time. (If only we knew how to do it again! 😂)
But Here’s the Twist…
While we were celebrating the views, we noticed one tiny thing: we only gained one new follower.
Yup, you read that right. One. 🎉 We went from 17 to 18 followers, and honestly, we were a little confused. It’s like getting a standing ovation and then realizing you’re the only one clapping. But hey, that one new follower probably felt like a VIP, so we’re counting it as a win!
Either Way, We’re Thrilled!
We may never know exactly what made that post take off, but one thing’s for sure—we’re beyond grateful for the excitement and support. Whether you’ve been here from the start (shoutout to our original 17!) or just found us, welcome to Stitch and Timber Co.!
