Top-performing posts

The three posts pulling the most engagement in the last 90 days.

02

Content pillars

AI-clustered themes the account posts about, with example posts pulled live from Instagram.

  1. 01

    Renewable Energy (HayWind)

    37.00%

    Milestone-driven updates on the 50 MW Mannar Wind Farm project, delivered as images, carousels, and reels. Progress narratives with tangible facts like turbine specs and port logistics drive the highest engagement on the account.

  2. 02

    Enterprise IT & Products

    27.00%

    Promotional content for FentonsIT solutions, especially IceWarp, using reels and static images. Posts frame pain points around legacy tools and push a single platform alternative, but engagement is inconsistent.

  3. 03

    People & Culture

    17.00%

    Workplace milestones, employee recognition, training events, and CSR moments. Carousels and images here connect well with a local professional audience and produce steady mid-range likes.

  4. 04

    Seasonal & Cultural Moments

    10.00%

    Holiday and observance posts tied to Father's Day, Poson, and World Youth Skills Day. Reels in this pillar generate reliable engagement by blending emotional copy with local cultural relevance.

  5. 05

    Industry Events & Thought Leadership

    7.00%

    Coverage of workshops, networking events, and press features positioning Hayleys Fentons as a sector authority. Carousels with event photography tend to outperform plain static images in this pillar.

Strategy summary

What's working, what to fix, and what to ship next.

TL;DR

The single strongest lever for this account is the HayWind renewable energy series. Posts 14, 15, 25, 28, and 12 average 36 likes, nearly three times the account average, and they do it by pairing a concrete milestone with a vivid fact. Post 14 (77 likes) and post 9 (81 likes) are the two highest-performing posts in the set, and both follow the same pattern: a tangible, human-scale achievement framed with forward momentum. That formula is replicable and underused outside the energy pillar.

The biggest leak is the IceWarp/FentonsIT content, which makes up roughly 27% of the feed but averages only 5 likes per post. The copy recycles the same "beyond disconnected tools" framing across posts 3, 6, and 10 without adding new proof or social evidence. With zero comments across all 30 posts, the account has no two-way conversation, which suppresses algorithmic reach regardless of format. Reels are outperforming static images at 28 likes vs. 9 likes on average, yet most product content stays in static format.

Posting cadence at 2.3 posts per week is below the 4-post benchmark for a B2B corporate account in this niche. The gap between the top post and the median is wide enough that a modest lift in content quality, not volume alone, would move the account meaningfully.

Working

4
  • Milestone reels for the HayWind project consistently hit 30 to 77 likes by anchoring copy to a specific, verifiable fact.
  • Carousel format drives the highest average engagement per post type, especially for workplace and event content like post 9 and post 15.
  • Bilingual and cultural moment reels like posts 21 and 22 earn above-average likes with minimal production effort.
  • Recognition posts such as post 18 generate reliable mid-range engagement and signal brand credibility to a local professional audience.

Risks

5
  • IceWarp posts repeat the same hook across multiple posts without adding customer proof, case data, or a clear call to action.
  • Zero comments across all 30 posts signals no community prompt in captions. Every post should end with a direct, low-barrier question.
  • Static image posts average 9 likes versus 28 for reels. Several IT product posts should be reformatted as short reels.
  • Posting is clustered around midweek with sparse early-week coverage, leaving engagement potential untapped on Mondays.
  • Hashtag stacks on IT posts exceed 15 tags and dilute focus. Trimming to 5 to 8 tightly relevant tags would improve discoverability.

Ship next

5
  • Apply the HayWind milestone formula to FentonsIT wins: pick one client result, lead with a specific number, and deliver it as a 30-second reel.
  • Add one question at the end of every caption to seed comments and improve algorithmic distribution.
  • Build a monthly IceWarp proof post using a named Sri Lankan customer result rather than generic platform benefits.
  • Increase posting to 4 per week by repurposing existing event photography into carousel posts with educational captions.
  • Test posting energy and IT reels at 8 to 10am on Tuesdays and Thursdays, the window where current high-like posts cluster.
