Let's talk about that ChatGPT hook that went viral...

Hello beautiful people.

Today, we will be breaking down a viral thread (and how you can craft one for yourself)

Moving forward, I’m going to be doing more of these, so buckle up (or unsubscribe if that’s not your jam)

Let’s dive in:

[Estd time for reading: 2 minutes.]

You know what's crazy?

It's how a simple hook can make or break your content's success. Get the hook right, and you're on the fast track to virality (even if your content is just "meh").

And if you're shooting for guaranteed virality, just hop on the trend train.

Like ChatGPT, for example. It's the talk of the town right now.

Seems like everywhere you look, there's someone claiming, "MoSt PeOplE don’T knOw hOw tO use ChatGPT. ReAd tHiS tHreAd to becOme a MasTer at It!"

It's like they're all saying, "You're clueless, but lucky for you, I'm a ChatGPT genius. Let me show you how it's done."

But then, out of nowhere, our friend Dickie goes against the grain.

He starts with: "ChatGPT is overhyped."

Your brain does a double-take: "Wait, what?!"

That's how he grabs your attention.

But he doesn't stop there. He quickly adds, "That's what I told myself." A smooth contradiction that keeps you hooked.

He goes on to explain why he felt that way (and what he's promising to teach you): "Turns out, I was just a poor prompt writer."

Dickie then builds credibility by saying he spent hundreds of hours tinkering with ChatGPT, and guess what? He finally cracked the code.

"Now, it's my personal writing assistant. Here's how:"

So, what's the secret sauce to a killer hook?

1. Start with a bold, controversial statement.

2. Quickly contradict that statement (keep 'em guessing!).

3. Establish your credibility.

Here’s an example:

“ Nobody reads long-form content anymore.

I used to think that too, until I stumbled upon a powerful writing secret.

Turns out, it's not the length, but the storytelling that keeps readers hooked.

After countless late nights experimenting, I've honed the art of crafting irresistible long reads.

And now, I'm spilling the beans on how you can do it too.

Here's the step-by-step guide:”

See what I did there?

Now go on and work that magic into your own hooks.

Let me know how it goes.

Kush.
