Turn Reddit posts into viral ad hooks under 10 minutes

Found a post where a founder accidentally sent “we miss you” emails to recent buyers.

Dropped it into ChatGPT with a custom prompt and got back 10 usable hooks like:

  • “When email automation turns into brand damage”

  • “This email cost us 50 customers”

  • “Don’t let this happen to your Klaviyo setup”

It’s an easy way to go from zero ideas to hook bank without staring at a blank screen.

Why one Ugg reel hit 3.5M views and another fell flat

UGG’s Women’s Tasman X Boot is a hit thanks to its comfort, weatherproof design, and TikTok buzz. Let’s explore why some videos go viral with millions of views, others fall short.

🥇The High-Performing Reel: 3.5M+ Views

  • It starts like a recipe video with a baking tray but quickly shifts to Ugg boots, grabbing attention with a surprising twist.

  • The cake transforms into a boot with a smooth transition that make the video fun and engaging.

  • The ending ties everything together with appealing visuals, satisfying transitions, and sounds.

🥉The Lower-Performing Reel: 185K+ Views

  • It has a weak hook as it starts with just peach emojis on screen.

  • It shows an unboxing, but it feels ordinary and lacks curiosity and emotional connection.

Conclusion:

If you’re a brand creating short-form content, remember:

→ Use a familiar setup, but add a twist.

→ Focus on visuals and sounds that trigger curiosity or satisfaction.

→ Make sure every video has a beginning, middle, and end.

See you next week,
