Let's see an example of each hook that video editors can use for a client who needs a video editor
1๏ธโฃ Make Money (๐ฅ Highest response rate)
Why it works:
Clients hire to increase revenue or ROI. Period.
โ Weak
I will help you grow your business.
โ
Strong
I help e-commerce brands add $10kโ$30k/month through better ad creatives โ not more ad spend.
Formula:
Outcome + mechanism (brief)
2๏ธโฃ Save Money & Time (โก Very powerful)
Why it works:
Clients are tired of:
- Managing freelancers
- Revisions
- Wasted budget
โ Weak
I save time and money.
โ
Strong
Most founders waste 20โ30 hours/month fixing freelancer mistakes. I eliminate that.
Formula:
Hidden cost theyโre bleeding + relief
3๏ธโฃ Solve Client Pain Points (๐ฏ Core hook)
This is where most people fail because theyโre vague.
โ Weak
I understand your pain.
โ
Strong
Low show-up rates usually arenโt a lead problem โ theyโre a qualification problem.
Formula:
Specific pain + insight
4๏ธโฃ 24 Hours Available (โ ๏ธ Weak alone, strong as a booster)
By itself?
๐ Low-value hook
Clients donโt hire availability โ they hire results.
โ Weak
Iโm available 24/7.
โ
Strong
I respond within 24 hours and fix issues before they cost you leads.
Formula:
Responsiveness + outcome
Use this as a supporting line, not the opener.
5๏ธโฃ Dream Outcome (Faster / Cheaper / More Effective)
This one works only if youโre specific.
โ Weak
Faster, cheaper, effective delivery.
โ
Strong
Clean, conversion-focused videos delivered in 48 hours โ no over-editing, no fluff.
Formula:
Ideal result + constraint (time, cost, clarity)
๐ฅ Final Optimized Hook List (Use This)
Ranked by conversion power on Upwork:
- Make Money (Revenue / ROI)
- Specific Pain + Insight
- Save Time / Reduce Headache
- Dream Outcome (with specifics)
- Availability (only as support)
