The truth is, if your script is bad, the video just won't work—no matter how good the editing is. It's the foundation of everything. Today’s focus: - How to actually hold a viewer's attention without being "clickbaity". - Building intrigue by chaining problems and solutions. - The "But/Therefore" rule (how to stop your story from feeling like a boring list).

I’m spending today 𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗲-𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 the top videos—dissecting their hooks and retention hacks—so I can build a 𝗯𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻. I wrote a breakdown of exactly what I look for during this analysis. Read it in the 𝗖𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗿𝗼𝗼𝗺 section. 🏫

Okay, I found the 𝗻𝗶𝗰𝗵𝗲 for the brand new TikTok account. I’m creating the account from scratch right now so we start from 𝗮𝗯𝘀𝗼𝗹𝘂𝘁𝗲 𝘇𝗲𝗿𝗼. I wrote a breakdown of exactly how I found the idea (and how you can find yours without overthinking it). Read it in the 𝗖𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗿𝗼𝗼𝗺 section. 🏫
