@ahmadelhajii I'm a scriptwriter and I once had a client that hired me just to take his prompt, feed it to AI, generate the script and edit it.
In his words, "I don't have the time for it, plus I want it to be edited by a professional with track record"
@thesamocean Can never skip a Sam's content
I'm honestly learning so much from your content and sometimes, you write so well that it feels like I was in the room while these ideas were being formulated
@thesamocean This is extremely useful
I never thought a good progressive storytelling could work so great for a hook. I have been working on creating contrast and making a bold claim with emotions
This is definitely a new angle I will be exploring. Thank you for sharing this Sam
@VezmarJovan If all you do for research is watch your competitors video and then change the wording to post as yours, then you are slowly wrecking your channel.
You can copy a video that got 1,000,000 views and still get 300...
Because you copied what worked.
Not WHY it worked.
I see founders do this all the time on YouTube.
They find an outlier from a competitor.
Copy the title.
Change a few words.
Post their version.
It flops.
Then they assume the idea was saturated.
That's surface-level research.
The title is only one variable.
Maybe the thumbnail created the curiosity.
Maybe the person in the thumbnail made the claim believable.
Maybe the topic challenged something their audience already believed.
Maybe the timing made the idea relevant.
Maybe the format was completely different from everything else in their niche.
So when we find an outlier for a client, we don't ask:
"How do we make our version of this?"
We ask:
Why did someone stop?
Why did they click?
What did the thumbnail add that the title didn't?
What belief made the idea interesting?
Why did THIS video outperform everything else on the channel?
Then we take the mechanism and rebuild it around what our client's buyers actually care about.
That's the difference between copying content and studying it.
Packaging wins.
But only when you understand why the package won.
@ThumbnailBoss@MrBeast@chucky Once your audience feels they have fallen into a bait, they get so angry and just scroll. And if any of them is as petty as me, they click on "not interested"
@robertoblake Why do creators struggle to believe this?
I have worked for clients who had a relatively low CTR but that video is one of the most viral videos on her page
Whenever I tell creators that a High AVD and a High CTR won't make your videos go viral, I usually get told that "you don't know what you are talking about "
Well, now here you have it.
@Morris_young Total Addressable Market +Topic + Timing β¦
The market for GTA 6 leaks is huge and even with lower CTR and ADV it will have a bigger audience pool than an update to Pokemon GO for example.
Itβs not the algorithm β¦ itβs the audience β¦
