Welcome back to the Marketing Secrets podcast. You are about to listen to part 4 of 4 of my keynote presentation from Funnel Hacking Live, the exciting conclusion of this presentation. We’ve talked about offers, we’ve talked about stories and now we’ve dived into the hooks. And the hooks aren’t something that take as much time to explain, but it’s probably one of the hardest parts for people to do. So make sure to pay a lot of attention to this part of it and start thinking through what are the hooks you could be throwing out. And hopefully you notice allt he hooks I throw out. I’m throwing out hooks every single day between my podcasts and the blog posts and the Facebook live’s, and Instagrams and on and on and on. So hooks are the key because that’s what gets somebody’s attention and let’s them focus on your story so then you can make them your special offers. So I hope you enjoy the exciting conclusion of my keynote presentation at Funnel Hacking Live. With that said, I’m going to queue up the theme song, and then we’ll jump right in to part 4 of 4 of my presentation. Okay, I’m going to go over the last step. We talked about offer, we talked about story, the last piece in this is the hook. So what is the hook? To understand this really well, I want you guys to imagine what happened right before you probably came into this room. You were in the bathroom and you were sitting kind of like this, and most of you had your phones and you’re going like this. So what a hook is, is the thing that makes you stop and be like, “Whoa.” That’s a hook. This is how I judge my hooks. I imagine all of you guys swiping and what’s going to make you like, “Whoa, hold on. I gotta finish so I can find out what that thing is.” This is literally what’s happening, in case you’re wondering like, ‘Oh my customers don’t do that.” They do. I was in the airport two days ago, I walk into the airport and for the women I’m so sorry you have to find out about how gross and disgusting men are. But there’s a dude swiping while he’s…I’m like, seriously. Put it in your pocket for like 30 seconds, it doesn’t take that long. It was just amazing. That’s what they’re doing. So you gotta imagine, this is what’s happening in today’s world. It’s not that they’re sitting at their desktop, studying you and reading things and researching. What’s happening is this. They’re flipping through their phone and seeing their friends and their pictures and their profiles and their cat videos and thing after thing after thing after thing. And your ad has a shot in there for like 1 second, probably less, in the middle of the scroll. If you don’t stop them right there and they don’t say, “Hold on, put the phone down, I gotta come back and check this out.” You’ve failed. The hook is the key. Without a good hook nobody will ever hear your story, without a good story no one will care about your offer. Now the hook in and of itself does not provide, does not increase the value. The hook does not increase the value of what it is you’re selling. What the hook does is it grabs your attention long enough that they’ll listen to your story. The story increases the value and then the offer increases the value. The
