Scale the founder-story angle into a cold-traffic series
Founder hooks beat product hooks by 27% on cold traffic this quarter, and the existing founder ad is your most durable scaler.
Hook options
- "I quit a stable job to fix this one annoying thing..."
- "Three years ago this idea sounded insane. Here is what happened."
- "Nobody asked us to make this. We made it anyway."
Visual direction
Handheld, natural light, founder face-to-camera. Cut to one product shot at the 60% mark.
Production notes
Shoot three hook variants in one session. Keep the first second free of branding.
Sample script
Open on the founder mid-sentence. Beat 1: the problem they lived with. Beat 2: the moment it clicked. Beat 3: the product as the obvious answer. Close on a single, quiet CTA.
