Case-of-the-week teardown
A 'case of the week' taken apart like a specimen on graph paper: a ringed diagram with one numbered pin per part, each page lighting its pin above what that part did and why — a breakdown readers can study and borrow from.
When the AI picks it
MarketiQ’s Creative Director favours the Case-of-the-week teardown for posts that teach or start a conversation, when the message is a story, a list or one sharp insight. It is built first to teach.
It reads each post’s goal and shape first, then its own words, the platform and the facts you have, and offers this template only where it fits.
Who it’s for
Any business. Nothing in it assumes what you sell, so the Director can offer it to a software company, a café or a coaching centre alike — whenever the post fits.
Platforms and sizes
| Size | Where |
|---|---|
| 4:51080 × 1350 px | Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, Threads |
Carousel of 3–10 slides. Each size is laid out for its canvas, not cropped; the sample above is the 4:5 version.
What it needs
Only your post. It is made from your copy and your brand kit — there is nothing else to prepare.
Rules the AI follows
Word for word from the template library. The Director follows the copy rules when it writes into the template, and the visual review checks every creative against the visual rules.
Copy rules
- The case is one the copy describes; each row is one part of it — what was done and why it worked.
- Results, numbers and names only as the copy states them; no client names the brand facts do not allow.
- The closing line turns the lesson into the reader's next step.
Visual rules
- Graph paper with a specimen diagram — concentric rings, a crosshair, numbered pins around it — under a dark 'Case of the week' badge.
- Each part page fills its pin in the brand colour with a dashed leader line down to 'Part n of N', the part's heading and its text.
- The cover shows the whole diagram under the title; the closing page fills every pin above the CTA.
