One person, one problem
The five beats of a top of funnel video: one person, one problem, authority, one solution, then follow.
Why does it matter?
Every top of funnel video does the same five jobs. Only the hook is scripted, so the rest can be talked naturally.
How does it work?
- Script the hook: who it is for, and their problem, in one breath.
- Add one line of authority. A number from their own story beats a CV.
- Give one solution they could act on today. Two solutions are two videos.
- End on follow.
