You can ensure your content never gets lost in the feed again by adding a single sentence! This works for ANY niche on ANY platform.

Are you a content creator? Did you know most online content never gets seen?

Hey, I’m Casandra. In the next few minutes, I’ll tell you the secret to making sure readers and viewers stop scrolling past your content and start engaging with it instead.

Here’s the problem: Every day, hundreds of millions of new pieces of content are created online, including articles, videos, and social media posts. In fact, 65K Instagram posts, 350K tweets, and 1.7 million Facebook posts are shared every minute!¹

There’s more competition for attention than ever, and it’s nearly impossible to stand out. This means all the time you spend creating something genuinely helpful, entertaining, or inspiring is wasted.

Luckily, there’s one simple tactic you can use to make sure your content stands out and gets the attention it deserves: add a compelling hook. Most people have no idea how to do this—or even that they should do it.

Let me introduce you to the 135 Proven Hooks Cheat Sheet.

I spent the past 15 years creating online content for brands of all sizes, including for huge brands like Shopify. After creating thousands of pieces of content to drive millions of pageviews, I’ve figured out what works and what doesn’t.

The most successful content has one thing in common: a strong hook.

A hook is a single sentence you can use to capture attention and create curiosity. The point of a hook is not to sell or convert. It’s to draw people in.

A strong hook is:

• Intriguing: It should spark curiosity and make the reader want to know more.

• Relevant: It should be directly related to the topic of your content.

• Clear: It should be easy to understand and straight to the point.

• Compelling: It should make the reader want to stay with you so they can learn more.

Writing compelling hooks is crucial for success, and many content creators will tell you they spend more time on the hook than anything else.

I created this cheat sheet so you can start writing strong hooks in minutes instead of hours.

Whenever you create a new piece of content, all you have to do is skim the cheat sheet and find the hook that works best. The more you do this, the more you’ll start coming up with great hooks on your own.
