  1. 0:00one of the things I don't like about
  2. 0:01YouTube is that it's very easy to think
  3. 0:03that you have to be a guru a guru says
  4. 0:06this is what you should do a guide says
  5. 0:08hey here's how I did it and maybe it can
  6. 0:10work for you it means that creating
  7. 0:12videos becomes a way more effortless
  8. 0:15thing you don't have to be a guru you
  9. 0:16can be a guide you got to just press
  10. 0:18record hey what's up Sean Cano here with
  11. 0:20think media in today's episode we are
  12. 0:22bringing you a clip from our recent grow
  13. 0:25with video Summit with Ali abdal where
  14. 0:27he revealed how he outlines and SC RS
  15. 0:30his videos now there's so many nuggets
  16. 0:33in this training you're going to love it
  17. 0:35and by the way if you want to jump on
  18. 0:36the wait list for the next grow with
  19. 0:38video Summit where we bring together
  20. 0:40some of today's top video experts so you
  21. 0:42can learn their secrets there's a link
  22. 0:44to join the wait list in the description
  23. 0:46down below all right let's jump into the
  24. 0:49content with Ali abdall we start off
  25. 0:51with a concept which is sort of
  26. 0:52something about selfworth going up now I
  27. 0:56need to think about title thumbnail and
  28. 0:57hook so how to raise your self worth
  29. 1:00what I'm thinking about is that is this
  30. 1:02really the best framing for this topic
  31. 1:04like what is the framing of this video
  32. 1:06that would make this have the best
  33. 1:09chance of getting views So Okay so we've
  34. 1:11got self-esteem from Psych to go watch
  35. 1:14this if you're struggling with your self
  36. 1:15worth 1.2 million views that seems
  37. 1:17promising essentially well I'll just go
  38. 1:19through YouTube and I'll think okay
  39. 1:21other than the title of how to raise
  40. 1:23yourself worth is there a better way of
  41. 1:25framing this video is it about
  42. 1:26self-esteem is it about self-worth is it
  43. 1:28about not caring what what other people
  44. 1:30think is it about how to be more
  45. 1:32confident in yourself okay how to be
  46. 1:35more confident could I frame a video
  47. 1:37about selfworth based on confidence this
  48. 1:40is sort of the thought process because
  49. 1:42you know one of the things that I've
  50. 1:43really realized about YouTube over time
  51. 1:45is that 80% of the value is in these two
  52. 1:49things literally 80% it's the concept
  53. 1:52the title and the thumbnail and the hook
  54. 1:54if you can get this stuff right it like
  55. 1:57massively increases your chances of this
  56. 1:59of this video potentially going big and
  57. 2:01potentially growing your channel which
  58. 2:02is why it's worth not just going with
  59. 2:04the first title that comes to mind how
  60. 2:05to raise yourself worth but to think
  61. 2:07about like what are the different
  62. 2:08alternative framings of this title that
  63. 2:10I could potentially do something around
  64. 2:12confidence seems to be getting more
  65. 2:14views than something around selfworth
  66. 2:16now crucially I can still make a video
  67. 2:19about selfworth but the packaging of the
  68. 2:21video is just in the initial framing of
  69. 2:23it I know I want to do a video about
  70. 2:25selfworth and if I can frame it in the
  71. 2:28language of confidence what might that
  72. 2:29look like like this is literally what we
  73. 2:30go through when we do our thingy and we
  74. 2:32think okay cool what's Point number one
  75. 2:34what's Point number two and what's Point
  76. 2:35number three okay so if I were doing
  77. 2:37this video how to raise yourself Worth
  78. 2:39or how to become more confident I would
  79. 2:41be kind of Point number one would be get
  80. 2:44out of your own
  81. 2:48way where I would say something about
  82. 2:51kind of most of the blockers that hold
  83. 2:52us back are internal blockers we think
  84. 2:55that it's actually external
  85. 2:56circumstances but actually it's internal
  86. 2:58blockers Etc that's Point number one
  87. 3:00the next thing I'm going to say is that
  88. 3:04competence equals
  89. 3:07confidence so it's very hard to have
  90. 3:09high self-worth if you've never done
  91. 3:10anything interesting some might say so
  92. 3:13competence equals confidence equals
  93. 3:14evidence and the third thing I would say
  94. 3:18is um affirmations or something I
  95. 3:21actually think affirmations are great
  96. 3:22affirmations and
  97. 3:24mantras okay good these are the only
  98. 3:27three things I'm saying in this video
  99. 3:29the video is about how to raise yourself
  100. 3:31Worth or how to be more confident or
  101. 3:32something like that I'll finalize the
  102. 3:33title get out of your own way competence
  103. 3:35equals confidence affirmations and
  104. 3:36mantras are like a nice thing to do then
  105. 3:39I have a uh video creation framework
  106. 3:43that's called the hives framework H
  107. 3:45stands for hook I stands for intro v
  108. 3:48stands for value and e s stands for end
  109. 3:51screen sales
  110. 3:54pitch if you guys don't know this
  111. 3:56already the think media gang have done
  112. 3:58some solid videos talking about this as
  113. 3:59well

  137. 4:37retention absolutely plummet we want an
  138. 4:39end screen sales pitch we've got we want
  139. 4:41a hook to me the hook is just the
  140. 4:44promise I think with educational content
  141. 4:46hooks are easy enough the think media
  142. 4:47YouTube channel is actually actually
  143. 4:48does a really good job of hooks we often
  144. 4:50use think media's YouTube channel as a
  145. 4:52thing uh as like an example when we
  146. 4:54teach sessions for our own YouTuber
  147. 4:56Academy cuz you guys do a really good
  148. 4:57job of you know I remember one of one of
  149. 4:59Omar videos was in this video I'm going
  150. 5:01to show you how to set up the perfect
  151. 5:03Studio setup with a budget with under
  152. 5:05$100 let's get into it it's like oh
  153. 5:08that's a nice hook Omar elor is telling
  154. 5:11me exactly what I'm getting in this
  155. 5:12video cuz essentially when someone
  156. 5:14clicks on the title in thumbnail what
  157. 5:15we're doing is we're creating an
  158. 5:17expectation in the viewer's mind so the
  159. 5:19think media video of how to set up your
  160. 5:21studio with under
  161. 5:22$100 I click on that video expecting to
  162. 5:25learn how to set up a studio for under
  163. 5:26$1100 now with educational content I can
  164. 5:30get away with my hook basically just
  165. 5:31being the title of the video so if my
  166. 5:34title of the video is how to raise your
  167. 5:35self worth or how to be more confident
  168. 5:37in this video I'm going to share my top
  169. 5:39three tips for how you can be more
  170. 5:41confident easy that's a hook that's the
  171. 5:44promise we don't need to overthink it
  172. 5:46the nice thing about educational
  173. 5:47channels is we don't need to do oh my
  174. 5:49God guys in this video we're going to
  175. 5:50give a million dollars to the person
  176. 5:52who's got the highest self-confidence
  177. 5:53and we're going to go on a trip and
  178. 5:54we're also going to do this and we're
  179. 5:55also going to that sort of stuff is kind
  180. 5:59of necessary the world of entertainment
  181. 6:00thankfully it's not massively uh
  182. 6:02necessary in the world of Education if
  183. 6:04what you have to say is sufficiently
  184. 6:06valuable so the hook is just the promise
  185. 6:08in this video we're going to go over
  186. 6:09three tips that you can use to level up
  187. 6:11your selfworth and your confidence
  188. 6:12especially in situations where you're
  189. 6:13struggling next up we have an intro now
  190. 6:16the intro is optional but if there's
  191. 6:18only one thing that you take away from
  192. 6:19this talk I would recommend you figure
  193. 6:22out what your intro would be you don't
  194. 6:25have to include an intro in every video
  195. 6:28but I personally think it's a good idea
  196. 6:30an intro is who are you and why should
  197. 6:32the audience care who are you and why
  198. 6:34should the audience care in my humble
  199. 6:36opinion the point of the intro is to
  200. 6:38explain who you are welcome the audience
  201. 6:40to your channel and give them a sense of
  202. 6:43your credibility what is interesting
  203. 6:45about you that would you know audiences
  204. 6:47are paying for your video they're not
  205. 6:48paying with their dollars they're paying
  206. 6:50with their time and their attention
  207. 6:52which is even more valuable than money
  208. 6:54so what is it about you that is that is
  209. 6:57deserving of their time and attention
  210. 6:59you can do that within your intro so for
  211. 7:01example for me seven years ago I started
  212. 7:03make making videos aimed at medical
  213. 7:05school applicants in the UK and so I
  214. 7:07would say hey guys welcome back to the
  215. 7:08channel if you're new here my name is
  216. 7:09Ali I'm a final gear medical student at
  217. 7:12Cambridge University and in this video
  218. 7:14I'm going to talk about how to do your
  219. 7:16interview prep if you're applying to med
  220. 7:18school the fact that I'm a final year
  221. 7:20medical student at Cambridge University
  222. 7:22is a massive flex and it's social proof
  223. 7:25and it's credibility and it's like oh
  224. 7:27this guy knows his stuff that's why he's
  225. 7:29is talking about this I was giving a
  226. 7:31talk yesterday um at this sort of
  227. 7:33marketing conference and I called on
  228. 7:35someone in the audience and she makes
  229. 7:36videos about public speaking and she has
  230. 7:39been a public speaking coach for 10
  231. 7:41years and has had 30 years of experience
  232. 7:43as a singer songwriter traveling around
  233. 7:45the world and doing performances in
  234. 7:47public so her intro should be like hey
  235. 7:50everyone my name is Lisa I've I spent 30
  236. 7:52years touring the world as a single
  237. 7:53songwriter and so I'm very familiar with
  238. 7:54the stage and I've been coaching public
  239. 7:56speaking for the last 10 years that's
  240. 7:58why in this video we're going to be
  241. 7:59talking about public speaking blah blah
  242. 8:00blah blah blah blah it is so much easier
  243. 8:02to grow a YouTube channel when you
  244. 8:03actually have some real world
  245. 8:05credibility for the thing that you
  246. 8:07trying to teach in the world of
  247. 8:08Education yes you could be a 17-year-old
  248. 8:11life coach if you really want to but
  249. 8:13it's very hard to grow a YouTube channel
  250. 8:15as a 17-year-old life coach if anyone
  251. 8:18here is over the age of 30 like me I
  252. 8:20turned 30 like a couple weeks ago you're
  253. 8:22actually at an advantage in educational
  254. 8:24content because a lot of YouTubers are
  255. 8:26targeting people who are kids they want
  256. 8:28to go for the views they're playing The
  257. 8:29Fame game they're like oh I want my
  258. 8:31videos to go viral but really videos go
  259. 8:33viral when they appeal to young people
  260. 8:35and if your Channel or your business and
  261. 8:37ideally both appeals to people who are
  262. 8:39slightly older people in their 30s 40s
  263. 8:40or 50s people in their 30s tend to have
  264. 8:42money people in their teens and 20s tend
  265. 8:44to be broke it is very difficult to
  266. 8:46build a business catering to broke
  267. 8:47people it's a lot easier to build a
  268. 8:49business catering to people who actually
  269. 8:50have money so your intro I think should
  270. 8:53be some sort of thing that like explains
  271. 8:56who you are and why you are credible so
  272. 8:59for for example self-worth and
  273. 9:00confidence here is what I would do hook
  274. 9:03in this video we're going to talk about
  275. 9:04my top three tips for raising your
  276. 9:06selfworth so that you can be more
  277. 9:07confident in any situation hey friends
  278. 9:10welcome back to the channel if you're
  279. 9:11new here my name is Ali I'm a doctor
  280. 9:12turned entrepreneur and I'm the author
  281. 9:13of The New York Times bestseller
  282. 9:15Feelgood productivity Flex flex and you
  283. 9:18know I've been making YouTube videos now
  284. 9:19for 7 years and in that time I've made
  285. 9:20over 900 YouTube videos now when I
  286. 9:23started out I was super unconfident I
  287. 9:25had very low self-worth I had imposter
  288. 9:27syndrome all the time and now 7 years
  289. 9:29later I've learned so much along the way
  290. 9:31and I've learned all these strategies
  291. 9:32and tools that I can I can use to be
  292. 9:34more confident and now I feel like I
  293. 9:35genuinely do love myself I genuinely
  294. 9:37have high selfworth and I get invited to
  295. 9:39give talks and do stuff live and it's
  296. 9:41just super fun and so in this video I
  297. 9:43really want to share everything I've
  298. 9:44learned along the
  299. 9:45way hook intro and why why am the person
  300. 9:49to do this crucially you don't need to
  301. 9:51have you don't need to have major Flex
  302. 9:53credentials one major kind of Flex one
  303. 9:56major credential you could have is just
  304. 9:58the fact that you used to struggle with
  305. 10:00the thing and now you don't struggle
  306. 10:02with it anymore so you have learned
  307. 10:04something along the way it's one of the
  308. 10:06things I don't like about YouTube is
  309. 10:08that it's very easy to think that you
  310. 10:10have to be a guru a guru is someone who
  311. 10:12has all the answers but I don't like
  312. 10:14being a guru I prefer to be a guide a
  313. 10:16guru says this is what you should do a
  314. 10:19guide says hey here's how I did it and
  315. 10:21maybe it can work for you you don't have
  316. 10:24to be a guru you can be a guide so if
  317. 10:26you like me and you struggle with being
  318. 10:27a guru and like you look at I don't know
  319. 10:30clickfunnel sales pages and stuff and
  320. 10:32you think oh it's a bit much it feels
  321. 10:34too salesy don't worry you don't have to
  322. 10:36be a guru you can just be a guide and so
  323. 10:38reiterating in your intro that actually
  324. 10:40this topic is this thing that you've
  325. 10:41learned about is something you have
  326. 10:42personal experience in that can really
  327. 10:44help help viewers feel more relaxed feel
  328. 10:46more like they can trust you and it's a
  329. 10:48thing that you can just do for any video
  330. 10:50then you give them the value which is
  331. 10:510.1 point2 and3 and then you give them
  332. 10:52the end screen sales page and now the
  333. 10:54video is done and honestly this is the
  334. 10:56level of prep I do for most of my videos
  335. 10:590.1 point two and3 maybe I'll write it
  336. 11:01out notion of it maybe I'll add a few
  337. 11:03bullet points to be like okay competence
  338. 11:05equals confidence maybe I want to site
  339. 11:07this study um I think I I'll use uh
  340. 11:10bandura's um self-efficacy because I'm
  341. 11:13I'm familiar with the research around it
  342. 11:15maybe I can talk about my book there yep
  343. 11:18cool that's fine affirmations and
  344. 11:19mantras I can talk about manifestation
  345. 11:21and how that works um I can talk about
  346. 11:26um HEBs law in neur signs that neurons
  347. 11:30that fire together wire together and so
  348. 11:31actually if you repeat something often
  349. 11:33enough to yourself you genuinely start
  350. 11:35to believe the thing okay cool yep I can
  351. 11:36talk about that so that makes it a bit
  352. 11:38juicier and getting out of your own way
  353. 11:39internal blockers well h i can talk
  354. 11:42about how 80% of all issues are
  355. 11:44emotional issues when it comes to
  356. 11:46business when it comes to YouTube when
  357. 11:48it comes to anything I don't really have
  358. 11:49any data for that stat but that's fine
  359. 11:51and okay cool yep I'm ready to film the
  360. 11:53video this is literally the process that
  361. 11:55I use to make videos and this is what
  362. 11:56I've been doing for the last 900 plus
  363. 11:57videos on my channel over the last 7
  364. 11:59years Years cuz I found that when I have
  365. 12:01to spend freaking ages trying to
  366. 12:02research the topic it takes the joy out
  367. 12:05of it it makes it take way too long and
  368. 12:08ideally I would like to make a YouTube
  369. 12:10channel that is a guide it's not a guru
  370. 12:13a guide doesn't need to do research a
  371. 12:14guide can just say hey I've done this
  372. 12:16thing and here's what I've learned along
  373. 12:17the way and I hope you find it useful
  374. 12:19this is hook intro value and Screen
  375. 12:21sales pitch this is the method that I
  376. 12:23use to try and kind of be more
  377. 12:25consistent and it means that creating
  378. 12:28videos becomes a way more effortless
  379. 12:30thing that's happening if you liked this
