That’s where hooks come in. We’re sharing 45 hooks for faceless reels that you’ve probably not thought of yet.
Watch your engagement go through the roof. Hook, line and sinker. Thank us later.
RECAP: What is a hook? A hook is a short phrase at the beginning of a reel or other short-form video designed to make the viewer stop scrolling and stick around to watch your video. Hook them in, before you sink them. A good hook should be visually engaging, emotionally appealing, or thought- provoking. Elements that make a hook effective include a compelling narrative, intriguing questions, unexpected humor, or a teaser of what’s to come. Catchy, curiosity-inspiring phrases that make the viewer want to find out more are best.
How To Create A Good Hook
Often, our first go-to is super generic hooks. Think ‘here are the top three X’ or ‘how to do Y’ and don’t get me wrong, these do have their place. But it doesn’t do much to convey emotion or inspire action.
For a hook to be successful it needs to create reaction. This can be POSITIVE or NEGATIVE, but it needs to make you feel something. A feeling of ‘I love it so much show me more’ or ‘I hate it so much, let me find out what crazy take she has on a subject’.
When you write your next hook, make sure it does one of the following:
- taking a stand on a controversial topic you feel strongly about
- inspire curiosity about a common problem or obstacle your audience has
Think of what the FAQs are for your audience and use that to make them curious about the answer.
Example: how do I grow my following?
Hook: Not me doing all the wrong things to gain followers
Example: how do I make sales?
Hook: the one thing that changed the game and got me my first sale
