Hooks · Daily vloggers

Opening lines that stop the scroll for daily vloggers

A vlog hook is the first line you say to camera, not the title card. Twin-city vloggers waste it on a subscribe reminder and today we are going somewhere special. Open on the rupee figure, the hour of the morning, or the thing that has already gone wrong.

Using these hooks

How do I use these hooks?

Should I use them word for word?

Use the shape, change the words. These are written for daily vloggers generally; the version that works is the one with your own price, your own area and your own customer's actual question in it.

Do these work in Urdu?

Several have a Roman Urdu version below, and in the twin cities that version usually performs better on TikTok and Facebook. On LinkedIn, stay in English.
