ฝึกพูดภาษาอังกฤษด้วยเทคนิค Shadowing จากวิดีโอ: I Spent 15,000 Hours Studying Hooks. Here’s What I Learned.

The biggest difference between people that thrive and people that fail on social media is hooks.

You could have the best video in the world, but if the start is boring, nobody's going to watch it.

I've spent 15,000 hours analyzing what works.

And from all this research, my team and I have created a five-step process to craft the perfect hook

that will keep your audience glued to the screen.

The first step is to use the generalist principle.

Now, A lot of creators try to focus on a very small group.

For example, graphic designers making tutorials for other designers.

Or real estate agents creating content for people in a very specific zip code.

The problem is when you do that, you cut yourself off from most of the people who might have watched.

Now, if you want your content to spread, you need to do the opposite.

Imagine your viewer knows nothing about you or your topic.

If you can make it clear and interesting for them, you'll have a higher chance of going viral.

At Hookpoint, we call this the Generalist Principle.

Now, this doesn't mean you stop talking about your subject or completely change who you are.

It just means that you open up the door wide enough for anyone to step in.

Once they're inside, you can share all of your details and expertise.

And to be clear, this isn't just about going viral just for the sake of it.

At Hookpoint, everything we teach ties directly back to your business goals and objectives.

The Generalist Principle works because the wider the net, the bigger the catch.

Attention spans, they're short.

If people don't instantly see something that is interesting, well, they're just going to move on.

And relatability beats expertise.

People share what they understand, what feels universal, not what feels technical.

At its core, the generalist principle is about accessibility.

You treat your audience as if they're brand new to the subject.

So here's how to apply it.

Number one, reframe your hook.

Show how your topic connects to everyday life or a problem that anyone can understand.

For example, in a video by Tanner Leatherstein, he doesn't use technical jargon of the leather industry.

He asks you one simple question.

Is it worth it?

This is a curiosity that most people, including those outside of his niche, will be interested in.

Which brings me to number two.

Keep it simple.

Use plain language and explain new ideas in under 10 words.

Tanner sums up his entire concept in just four.

Number three, start Start broad and go deep later.

Hook with universal conflict first and then bring in your expertise once they're engaged.

Tanner introduces the idea to the audience, then hones in on his knowledge about leather.

Virality is a numbers game.

The aim is to get as many eyes on your brand as possible.

But you will ultimately fail if you don't master step two.

Stop the scroll.

Have you ever seen someone scrolling on TikTok?

Audiences are brutal.

If they're not interested in the first three seconds, they just simply move on to something else.

Now, this is going to be the shortest pitch that you're ever gonna deliver.

And in those first three seconds, you have to answer two basic questions.

Number one, what is it about?

And number two, why does it matter to me?

Now this might seem obvious, but most businesses treat their social media like it's their website.

They post what essentially is an ad about their product without thinking about the true purpose of social media.

You need to think about what is the other person on

the other side of the screen going to get out of this?

And why the fuck should anyone care about what you're going to post?

Now here are three rules to follow for the first few seconds of any content or post.

Rule number one, make the payoff visual too.

Now the reality is 75% of people watch with no sound.

On-screen text becomes your safety net.

So you need to include three to five words that set up a clear promise.

Now, you can do this with movement, interesting visuals, and props, but text is easiest to implement.

Rule 2, be crystal clear on what the audience gets from this.

In half a glance, people need to know why they should care.

For example, how to save 5 hours a week using this one free AI tool.

Rule number 3, kill your darlings.

Attention bleeds with every extra word.

If your opening line is longer than 10 words or 10 seconds, well, you have to cut it down.

And if you want more insight into creating effective hooks, I've actually written an entire book on it.

And at the end of this video, feel free to click the link down below in the description to get this entire book for free.

But first, you're going to want to check out the next step because after they're hooked, most people think it ends there.

But really, you're going to have to hook them again.

That is why step 3 is building curiosity loops.

Every extra second they stay sends the algorithm the signal that it's looking for.

This content holds attention.

To generate a curiosity loop, you must stack your answers in a way that generates more questions.

This will make your audience want to stick around longer.

Think of it this way, it's like stacking dominoes.

answer tips onto the next, which tips onto the next answer, and so on and so forth.

As long as the chain keeps falling, your audience can't look away.

Here are three ways to stack your answers so every payoff fuels the next question.

Number one, answer with a twist.

Instead of giving an obvious explanation, frame your answer so it points to a bigger issue.

For example, in Mark Rober's video, this is space and this is an egg moments before I attempted the world's highest egg drop.

Now in an egg drop competition, in case you never had the chance to do it yourself in school, the goal is to build a contraption that can protect a raw egg from breaking when dropped from the tallest height possible.

You see how offering one answer, he opens up so many more in the viewer's mind.

What is an egg drop?

How did he get it up into space?

And what exactly is the result?

Number two, answer with a gap.

Drop part of the solution, but leaving the mechanism hanging.

For example, in this Mark Tilbury video, However, they often ignore the ones that aren't considered cool.

But the problem with cool remote jobs is that the competition is sky high, whereas the ones that aren't as popular are almost always hiring,

because people don't even know they exist.

He explains that the best jobs to make money are actually boring, leaving us wondering what are these jobs.

And number three, answer with a ladder.

Zoom out so your answer becomes step one of a larger process.

Another Mark Tilbury example here shows him revealing an infographic which shows the bigger picture, but makes the audience to stick around to find out what exactly it means.

This is what makes curiosity loops powerful.

100

You're not teasing for the sake of teasing, you're actually creating momentum, so that every time the audience feels like they're getting closer closer to the truth, you show them that there's another layer.

101

That forward pull is irresistible, and it's the difference between a 5 second view and someone watching the full video,

102

which tells the algorithm that your content deserves scale.

103

Alright, the next step in the process is to use multiple senses.

104

What you have to remember is that we are working within a visual and audio medium, so many people pay attention to the words they are saying,

105

but the things we are seeing are just as important.

106

More than half of your brain's cortex is dedicated to processing visual information.

107

That means over 50% of the brain's surface is wired to understand what you're seeing first, not reading or listening.

108

So if your spoken word doesn't have a visual anchor, or uses the wrong one, viewers can miss the point, especially in fast scroll environments.

109

A strong visual paired with concise text reinforces meaning and prevents confusion.

110

If one element is misaligned, comprehension drops and the hook fails.

111

But visuals are only half the story.

112

The auditory system is just as powerful.

113

Our brains are trained to notice changes in sound, a sudden pause, a sharp effect, or a shift in tone.

114

That's why ASMR is addictive.

115

The ear detects novelty faster than the eye, forcing the brain to pay attention.

116

Even subtle background music or rhythm in your delivery can make the same sentence feel exciting, traumatic, or soothing.

117

Now here are three ways that you can do this.

118

Number one, pair words with visual anchors.

119

We've already suggested adding subtitles, but consider what emojis you can use to get your point across too.

120

See how Dr. Julie Smith does this in a way

121

that the audience can interact by seeing if their country's flag is in the video.

122

Number two, compliment with sight and sound.

123

Use quick visual changes, bold colors, or cuts, and then reinforce them with audio shifts like pauses, whispers, or strings.

124

Novelty across both senses forces the brains to focus.

125

Consider this Tanner Leather Scene video.

126

Now let's watch it again with sound and see what difference it makes.

127

Number 3.

128

Add rhythm and sensory cues.

129

Layer in music, pacing, or even ASMR style sounds.

130

Combine that with visually satisfying shots or textures to make your message not just heard or seen, but felt.

131

Rhythm isn't just about audio, it can also be visual.

132

Note how in this video Zach Choi records himself making a sandwich, but the speed at which he does it and the sounds that go with it create a sense of flow and satisfaction.

133

That contrasts with the chaos and randomness drawing the viewer in.

134

Combining these senses multiplies impact.

135

Visuals anchor memory and text increases clarity, while sounds increase satisfaction.

136

Now when all these are combined, they create redundancy of meaning, making it almost impossible for the viewer to miss the point.

137

Point number five, promise a story.

138

We're talking about hooks, so you won't fit an entire story up front.

139

You need to hint at something specific.

140

If you make it too vague, not enough people will want to stick around.

141

Now, in order to do this, you need to lead with conflicts or change.

142

Drop the viewer straight into the moment of tension or transformation.

143

For example, in this video by Amalfi Jets, the conflict is made clear when the caller says, we have an issue.

144

The man in the video looks stressed by this, and this sets up for the story that is about to unfold.

145

Will he be able to solve the problem?

146

This switch on of suspense isn't unique.

147

Content creators often lead with a problem, positive or negative, to spark engagement.

148

The video by Answers in Progress centers around the question, why did you stop reading?

149

However, the creator poses several questions and obstacles within the hook.

150

It's like somebody's just reading to me.

151

I know I should have seen this coming.

152

Am I broken?

153

Do you see how in just three seconds she ups the stakes?

154

She goes from somebody who wants to test if she can read books like she used to, to a point where she wonders if she forgot how to read.

155

The creator amplifies the promise of the story by the reveal of her emotions alone.

156

The plot can unfold later, but the feeling must hit the hook.

157

Choose the emotion that you want to drive and let it lead.

158

Now here are some examples.

159

Frustration.

160

I posted 90 videos in 90 days, but barely got 100 views.

161

Aw, this free AI tool just made me $10,000 in 30 days.

162

Sadness, I lost a 10-year friendship in a two-minute conversation.

163

Each example plants an emotion first, creating curiosity to see the story that explains it.

164

Many stories hit both sides of the brain, logic and emotion.

165

That dual hit makes your content memorable.

166

It also humanizes your message.

167

viewers don't just see data or advice.

168

They see struggle, transformation, and results.

169

But while hooks are essential to keeping the viewers watching, it is storytelling that ties everything together.

170

Which is why you need to watch this video if you want to boost your business's chances of succeeding.

171

I deliver everything that I know about creating a story which sells.
