A fantastic post, full of practical and applicable information. Not just the why, but the how, which in my opinion is most important. I will be applying this to all future works. Thank you for creating this!
and I think I disagree. The first sentence is important, but there are things besides that that really decide if someone is going to read your post
1) The title
2) the packaging (images, font, spacing, length, etc.)
3) I don't think anybody ever really reads just one sentence, its usually 3 or 4. if I'm right, then it makes more sense to consider that than just 1 sentence.
