A cluster of statement or apology-style posts in a short window.

</Note>

## Why it matters

A crisis cluster tells you to handle the account with care, and timing. When a company posts three or more statement-style messages in a week, it's managing a public situation, a breach, a controversy, an incident. This shapes both whether and how to reach out.

## How to read it

## Outreach playbook
