Social media hook:
If You're Into [Topic], Don't Miss This…
Creates urgency while targeting specific interests to maximize relevance.
Interests create urgency
"If you're into [topic], don't miss this" works because it creates FOMO. People think: "I am into that. I don't want to miss it." It's urgency wrapped in interest.
Plus, "don't miss" creates anxiety. When you say "If you're into fitness, don't miss this workout hack," you're creating urgency around their interest. People don't want to miss things they care about. They click because interest-based FOMO feels urgent—even when the content isn't time-sensitive.
FOMO is just urgency with better interest targeting
It works because it hits three triggers: interest, FOMO, and urgency. The "into" targets interest. The "don't miss" creates FOMO. The combination creates urgency. People see "If you're into fitness, don't miss this workout hack" and think: "I am into that. I don't want to miss it." They click because interest-based FOMO feels urgent—even when the content isn't actually limited. It's not about being clever—it's about making content feel urgent to their interests.
