After watching Kompa run hundreds of accounts in 2026, three carousel structures show up over and over in posts that actually convert. Not “go viral” — convert. Bookings, replies, sales.

Here they are, in plain English, with no fluff. Copy them into Canva in 5 minutes.

Template 1 — The “Before / After in 5 frames”

Five slides. One photo per slide. Same product or service, told as a story.

  1. The mess. The empty restaurant. The dusty workshop.
  2. The first move. Hands working. A sketch. A coffee.
  3. Midway. Some progress visible.
  4. Near done. The big reveal at 80%.
  5. The result. The booking. The smile. The full table.

Caption: one sentence. “This is what your Tuesday afternoon looks like when you call us.” That’s it.

Template 2 — The “Three questions, one answer”

Five slides. Three problems, two pages of solution.

  1. “Do you spend Sunday night planning posts?”
  2. “Do you avoid Instagram on Mondays?”
  3. “Do your competitors look more professional online than they are?”
  4. “Same here. We built a thing.” (One sentence, one outcome.)
  5. CTA. One button. One link.

Template 3 — The “Receipt”

Five slides. Pure copy. No images. Just typography.

  1. EUR 1,500 — what an agency charges per month.
  2. EUR 49 — what Kompa charges.
  3. 20 minutes — what you spend per week.
  4. 0 hours — what your customer spends learning your system.
  5. CTA. Same as always. One button.

These work because they don’t pretend to be content. They’re a transaction, presented honestly.

You don’t need a creative brain. You need a structure. These three structures are it.
