Plan 7 days of social media content

You are running content for a personal-finance creator. Their last 5 videos flopped because the hook is weak. Fix it.

The scenario

Picture this at work

The brief

  • Creator: a 28-year-old ex-banker who teaches "money basics for people who never learned."
  • Topic: the 50/30/20 rule, but framed as a take they'd defend in a coffee shop argument.
  • Audience: 22–32 year olds, mostly in tier-1 cities, scrolling on the train.
  • Length: 30 seconds spoken, ~75–85 words.
  • Tone: confident, slightly contrarian, zero corporate speak.
  • Required: a hook in the first 3 seconds that makes someone stop scrolling.
    • Deliverable

    What counts as success

    A short script with:

  • a labeled HOOK (first 3 seconds),

  • the BODY (delivers the value),

  • a clear CTA (1 line, not "follow me for more").

    • How to do it

    Recommended tools and flow

    Recommended tools: Claude or ChatGPT for drafting, Captions or CapCut for delivery later.

    Suggested flow
    1. Brainstorm 5 hook variants first. Score each on "would I keep watching?" 1–10.
    2. Pick the best hook, then write the body around it.
    3. Read it on a stopwatch. If it overruns 30s, cut adjectives, not nouns.
    4. Replace any "always/never" claims with specific numbers — they convert better.
    5. Paste your final script below.
