Here's a different way to write hooks for your post. It seems backward. Write your hook AFTER you write your post. It's usually easier to write a strong hook once you already know what your post is about. Here’s why: When you're writing: -- you're often still figuring out your message -- once you've finished -- the real takeaway of your message becomes clear -- that's the moment to craft your hook Here’s one way to go about this: - 𝗪𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁: Forget about the hook. Just focus on getting your thoughts down. - 𝗜𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗳𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗸𝗲𝘆 𝗺𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗮𝗴𝗲: What’s the single most important point you’re making? - 𝗖𝗿𝗮𝗳𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗵𝗼𝗼𝗸: How can you spark curiosity or tease the key point? Think about what would grab YOUR attention. Here's an 𝗘𝗫𝗔𝗠𝗣𝗟𝗘: You write a detailed post about the importance of consistent content creation. After writing it all out, you'll know the main message → needing discipline more than inspiration. NOW, you craft a hook like “Why waiting for inspiration is killing your content game.” Try this, and let me know how it works for you. ➡️ Do you struggle to come up with strong hooks?
