Script From Hooks

Build modular ad scripts from winning hooks.

Process

Step 1: Analyze Winning Hooks

For each hook: psychological trigger used, expectation set, emotional state created, promise implied.

Step 2: Select Body Framework

TESTIMONIAL BODY

  • Real customer story, specific results
  • Before → struggle → discovery → result

EXPLAINER BODY

  • Problem identification
  • Why other solutions fail
  • Unique mechanism explanation

SOCIAL PROOF BODY

  • Multiple testimonials
  • Results compilation
  • Authority endorsements

DEMONSTRATION BODY

  • Product in action
  • Visual proof of claims
  • Side-by-side comparison

LISTICLE BODY

  • 3-5 benefits/reasons
  • Build to strongest point

Step 3: Add B-Roll Suggestions

For each section: visuals needed, stock footage keywords, AI generation prompts, product shots, UGC clips.

Step 4: Create CTA Variants

Direct: "Click the link below" / "Tap to learn more" Scarcity: "Sale ends Friday 6PM Eastern" / "Only X left" Story-Based: Mini testimonial leading to action Risk Reversal: Money-back guarantee, free trial

Step 5: Output Modular Scripts

Key Frameworks

Trojan Horse (LeadsIcon)

  1. Hook with attention (not product)
  2. Build belief through story/proof
  3. Product reveal comes LAST
  4. CTA is reminder, not hard sell

Problem-Mechanism-Proof

  1. Agitate problem (hook)
  2. Explain unique mechanism
  3. Provide proof/testimonials
  4. Clear call to action

Authenticity Rules (LeadsIcon)

  • Never script reactions - capture real ones
  • Polish kills performance
  • Shot on phone > shot on camera
  • If it looks like an ad, it fails
