CONTENT HACK
āThe Most Importantā
This hook formula will laser-focus your audienceās attention on your content like a dog on a bone:
āThe Most Important X In Yā
I came across it in this viral YouTube video (2 million views):
āThe Most Important Scale Exercise In Jazzā
The promise? One thing the audience absolutely must know in a specific context.
It cuts through noise and grabs attention like a vice grip.
FOMO: Nobody wants to miss out on the most important anything.
Authority: It frames you as an expert.
Clarity: One big thing > a dozen little things.
Hereās what you do:
Find A Core Need: A common problem your audience faces.
Highlight the Solution: Focus on the one thing (a tip, action, or insight) that addresses this need.
Write the Headline: Use āThe Most Important [X] In [Y]ā (or adapt for natural phrasing).
Examples:
āThe Most Important Question To Ask Before Buying a Home.ā
āThe Most Important Stretch For Long-Distance Runnersā

AI PROMPT
Landing Page Headline
Killer landing page headlines often narrow the focus of the product or service until thereās a very bold claim.
Take the headline on Bufferās website, for example:

They may not be the #1 scheduler in the world ā but by narrowing their focus, they can claim #1 in something.
This prompt will help you do the same.
Paste it into ChatGPT to refine your product/serviceās focus and find out what you can claim to be #1 in:
"Hi ChatGPT. I need a landing page headline for my product/service and want to emulate Bufferās:
āGrow your audience on social with the #1 free social media scheduler in the UK.'
The goal is to narrow the focus of my product/service to a specific audience, benefit, or feature until I can credibly claim to be '#1' in some way (e.g., most popular, fastest, only one in a specific niche, etc.).
Please ask me the following questions one at a time (not all at once) to help refine the focus.
Then generate 3-5 headlines that:
- Highlight the specific audience, benefit, or feature.
- Include a credible '#1' style claimā
