When to use it
Video scripts, ad creative, and sales funnels.
How it works
- 1
Hook — Grab attention in 3 seconds
- 2
Story — Build emotional connection
- 3
Offer — Present your solution as the logical next step
Common mistakes
Writing a hook that is clever but irrelevant — the hook must connect to the story and offer, not just grab attention
Telling a story without emotional stakes — a story that does not make the reader feel something will not convert
Presenting the offer as an afterthought — the offer should feel like the logical conclusion of the story, not a tacked-on pitch
