Social media hook:
Bold Claim
Make a strong, attention-grabbing assertion
Why do bold claims work?
"Bold claim" works because it breaks through the noise. When everyone says "this might help," saying "this will 10x your results" stands out. It's confidence wrapped in promise.
Plus, bold claims create curiosity. People think: "That's a big claim. Can they back it up?" They click to find out. It's skepticism wrapped in curiosity.
What makes bold claims so clickable?
It works because it hits three triggers: pattern interrupt, curiosity, and promise. The boldness breaks the pattern. The claim creates curiosity. The promise creates engagement. People see "This will 10x your results in 7 days" and think: "That's bold. Can they prove it?" They click because they want to see if you can back it up. It's skepticism, but it works. Plus, bold claims are shareable. Nobody shares "this might help." But "this will 10x your results"? That's shareable. It's bold, it's different, it's memorable.
