Rewriting dead hooks live
We take 5 underperforming hooks from real creators and rewrite them using the equation. You'll see exactly how a 2% hook becomes a 12% hook.
The rewrite framework
Step 1: Identify the promise. What is this video actually delivering?
Step 2: Compress to 5 words or fewer.
Step 3: Add a stake or curiosity gap.
Step 4: Add a visual that mirrors the words.
Examples in the wild
BEFORE: 'Hey guys, today I want to talk about email marketing.' AFTER: 'My 12-word email made $4,000 last Tuesday.'
BEFORE: 'Here are some tips for new freelancers.' AFTER: 'I fired my first 3 clients in week one. Here's why it tripled my rate.'
BEFORE: 'This is how I edit my videos.' AFTER: 'The 4-second edit trick that 10x'd my watch time.'
Key takeaways
- →Every dead video can be revived with a 30-second hook rewrite.
- →Re-uploading with a new hook is allowed — and often outperforms the original.
