Example hooks · How we got our first 100 users with no ads
open loop

We got 100 users with zero ad spend, and the method felt illegal.

Bold claim plus a tease that the how is surprising.

negativity bias

Stop building features, this is why nobody is signing up.

Calls out a painful, common founder mistake.

contrarian

Everyone launches on Product Hunt, we did the opposite and won.

Contradicts the default playbook to earn attention.

callout

Solo founders, you are losing users in the first 60 seconds.

Names a specific audience with a concrete problem.

What makes a hook go viral

A viral hook is the first line of a video, the first 1 to 2 seconds, that stops the scroll. The best ones use proven patterns: an open loop that withholds the payoff, a stat shock that surprises, or a callout that names the exact viewer. Specific beats clever, and the hook decides whether anyone watches the rest.
