3 Hook Templates that turn casual onlookers into email signups

About a week ago, Dina posted a “formula that turns first-time viewers into loyal subscribers”on LinkedIn. If you haven’t seen it, it goes like this;

SOCIAL PROOF (HOOK) + END RESULT + OPEN LOOP + CTA

The point of this Formula is to convince as many people as possible that have no idea who you are – to sign up for your email list. There’s no doubt, this formula works. Tons of people loved it. But Khadija had an interesting question – “What if you’re starting up, and don’t have the show stopping social proof? What can replace that kind of hook?”

Great question. This topic is super painful for everybody starting out, so we decided to give you 3 Hook Formulas to turn casual onlookers into email signups. Even if you have ZERO social proof, subscribers, or any kind of platform presence.
