0:00Did you know that 91% of YouTube videos
0:02never even reach 1,000 views? Well, it's
0:05because your scripts fail to hook
0:07viewers in the first 15 seconds, causing
0:09them to click away. And when YouTube
0:11sees your average view duration is only
0:1322% compared to your competitors 65%, it
0:17immediately stops recommending your
0:19videos. But here's the thing. In order
0:21to write a perfect YouTube script, you
0:23need to be insanely good at psychology
0:25and human behavior so that you can
0:26understand what to say to make someone
0:28watch an entire video. However, just
0:30like me, you're probably not a
0:32psychology expert. And so, what you need
0:34instead is an easy to use, proven
0:37scripting system that keeps viewers
0:38hooked throughout your entire video
0:40without needing a deep understanding of
0:42the psychology behind it. because this
0:45way you can make scripts that get a high
0:47watch time and then YouTube will
0:49recommend your videos to millions of
0:51people. Now, this solution isn't for
0:53everyone, but you want to pay close
0:54attention if you're a content creator
0:57who's putting in hours of work only to
0:59see your videos get a few views before
1:01completely dying. Someone who knows your
1:03content is valuable, but viewers are
1:05dropping off in the first 30 seconds. a
1:07creator who tried using Chad GBT for
1:09scripts but ended up with generic
1:11robotic content that sounds nothing like
1:13you or someone who's serious about
1:15growing their channel but cannot afford
1:17to hire a professional script writer at
1:20$200 to even $1,000 per video. If that's
1:23you, then what I'm about to share in
1:25this short video will be a complete
1:27gamecher for your channel because I've
1:29built and tested an easy to use AI
1:32scripting system which resulted in
1:34growing my new channel to over 30,000
1:36subscribers in the first 120 days. And
1:39here's the interesting part. I made all
1:41of these scripts for these videos in
1:43less than 60 minutes about video topics
1:46that sometimes I knew nothing about.
1:49Yet, they get recommended by YouTube all
1:51the time. and I actually became a top
1:53affiliate for the product I promote. So,
1:55trust me, what I'm about to show you
1:57works. And as we're entering the AI
2:00revolution, creators that use the right
2:02AI tools to make their scripts will
2:04completely outperform the ones that
2:05don't. And here's why. First of all,
2:07let's face it, you're probably not good
2:09at writing scripts. You might have
2:11amazing ideas and valuable knowledge to
2:14share, but translating that into a
2:16script that actually keeps viewers
2:18watching is an entirely different skill.
2:21And without proper training in
2:22storytelling, pacing, and viewer
2:25psychology, your brilliant ideas can
2:27easily get lost in a poor delivery,
2:29resulting in high drop off rates and the
2:31YouTube algorithm not recommending your
2:33videos. Second of all, it's incredibly
2:36time consuming. Even if you were capable
2:38of writing excellent scripts, the
2:40reality is that it often takes 15 to
2:43like 20 hours of focused work to
2:46transform a decent script into something
2:48truly exceptional. And most creators
2:50simply don't have that kind of time to
2:52invest in just one single video. And
2:55that creates a serious problem because
2:57YouTube's algorithm strongly favors
2:59channels that publish content regularly
3:02and predictably. Plus, if you've got a
3:04ton of subscribers, they want to see new
3:06content. And then besides that, the only
3:08other option you have is hiring a
3:10professional script writer. However, at
3:12the top level, they can easily charge
3:14anywhere from $200 even to $1,000 per
3:18script, which I don't know about you,
3:19but for me, that's just way too
3:21expensive. And so, these challenges of
3:23manual script writing are exactly why so
3:25many creators are struggling. And that
3:27is where AI comes in. Instead of
3:29spending hours or days writing scripts
3:32that aren't even good, you can now
3:34create watchtime optimized scripts
3:36within minutes that are designed to
3:39maximize the viewer retention. And you
3:41can do this without knowing anything
3:43about psychology if you apply what I now
3:45call my algo script method, which by the
3:49way puts generic AI tools like chat GBT
3:51to complete shame. So this is not going
3:53to be one of those tutorials. Now I can
3:55confidently say that because I've done
3:57it. I grew this new channel to 30,000
3:59subscribers in just 4 months using this
4:01algo script method. I became a top
4:03affiliate for the product I promote for
4:06which every single script was written by
4:08this AI system. and I got this video to
4:10a 100,000 views in just two short
4:13months. Now, to implement my algo script
4:15method, I use this tool called Poppy AI,
4:17which made my life a 100 times easier
4:19after switching from Chad GBT. Now, if
4:21you want to follow along this tutorial,
4:23I'll leave a link to Poppy in the
4:24description down below. And then later
4:26on, I'll also share the Algo script
4:28template so that you can simply
4:30integrate that and start using it right
4:32away. But first, here's how it works.
4:34So, inside of Poppy AI, you can create
4:36what's called a board. In this board,
4:38you can upload any piece of information
4:41which includes documents, PDFs, voice
4:43notes, images, and most importantly,
4:46YouTube videos. And you don't need to
4:48download that video and all that, you
4:49know, annoying stuff. You can just take
4:51the URL and then paste it in there. And
4:53then the AI will understand it all.
4:55After that, you can then add an AI chat
4:57and link all the pieces of information
5:00to this AI chat, which is then able to
5:02understand everything you linked and use
5:04it as a reference for whatever you tell
5:07the AI to do. And so, if I link my
5:0921page guide about how to write the
5:11perfect YouTube script to the AI chat
5:14and then create a group with information
5:16about the topic of my video, the AI will
5:19be able to write a perfect YouTube
5:21script for us in just one single prompt.
5:24And it can even do this in your tone of
5:26voice, but I'll show you how that works
5:28in a bit. But first, let me tell you
5:29about this guide. So, I have spent the
5:31last weeks putting in hours and hours of
5:34work developing this entire 21page
5:37step-by-step document guide that teaches
5:39the AI how to write the perfect YouTube
5:42script about any topic that keeps people
5:45watching all the way through. is by far
5:47the best guide on the internet for this.
5:49And it includes the flatline hook
5:51formula that made my retention grabs go
5:53from this to this, my tension letter
5:56technique that boosted my average view
5:58duration from 2 minutes 42 to 5 minutes
6:0138 on my long- form content. and the
6:04storytelling framework that I adopted
6:06from Netflix film directors that turn
6:08boring video topics into bingeworthy
6:11content which results in viewers that
6:12just cannot stop clicking from one video
6:15to the other on your channel. And so
6:17what's in this document isn't just
6:18theory from someone who studied YouTube.
6:21I've tested this exact system. I grew
6:23this channel to 30K subscribers. I got
6:26monetized. I'm hitting $100 days. And
6:29that's all with scripts made with this
6:30Poppy AI system. Then for each video you
6:33want to create, you'll add a topic
6:35specific group to your board. Let me
6:37show you exactly how this works with an
6:39example. So first of all, create a new
6:42group by clicking right here. And then
6:43you want to name this after your video
6:45topic. For example, I grew 100,000
6:49tomatoes. I wish I knew this sooner.
6:51Which, by the way, videos about tomatoes
6:53get millions of views. Then from here,
6:55you want to find the three to five best
6:57videos or articles about your video
6:59topic. These can be top performing
7:01YouTube videos. These can be blog posts
7:04that are very valuable. Research notes
7:06or even your own voice memos about the
7:08video topic. So, collect that
7:10information and then add these to your
7:12topic group. I'm going to take a few
7:14YouTube videos, paste in the URL, and
7:16then I'll also take two blog posts about
7:18this topic and then I'll put them inside
7:20of my tomato group. Now, this step is
7:22crucial because it gives the AI all the
7:24factual information it needs about your
7:26video topic. And unlike other AI tools,
7:29Poppy AI can actually transcribe and
7:32understand any piece of content directly
7:34from just a URL link, which makes this
7:37workflow extremely easy to use. Now,
7:39without feeding this information to the
7:40AI, it would struggle to create accurate
7:43and engaging scripts. However, with this
7:45approach, you're essentially giving the
7:47AI a crash course on your video topic in
7:50just a minute. But one of the biggest
7:52problems with AI written content is that
7:55it often sounds generic or robotic.
7:57YouTubers using generic chat GPT scripts
8:00are actually failing big time because
8:02people just don't like it. Poppy AI and
8:05specifically the system I built solves
8:07this problem by making a group with all
8:10of our previous videos in it. The AI
8:12then analyzes these videos to understand
8:14your unique speaking style, vocabulary
8:17choices, and personality. And then from
8:19there, it's able to apply that personal
8:21style to any new script that it makes
8:23for you. So to do this, add a group into
8:25your board and then call it my style.
8:28Then go to YouTube and copy the URL of
8:30your last six to nine videos and paste
8:33them into this group. All right. Then
8:35it's time to actually make the script.
8:37To do that in your style, all you need
8:39to do is link all of the group chats to
8:42the AI chat, which you can simply do by
8:44dragging this little circle to the
8:47circle of the AI chat, which means that
8:48the AI chat can now receive all the
8:51information that's inside of your
8:52groups. And I can then type in create a
8:54YouTube script applying the advice from
8:57the ultimate script guide for my video
8:59topic. I grew 100,000 tomatoes. I wish I
9:03knew this sooner. for which you can
9:05reference the group tomatoes and write
9:07the script in my style based on the my
9:10style group. With this one prompt, it
9:12will write the perfect YouTube script
9:14about your video topic of choice in your
9:17style in less than 5 minutes of work.
9:19And as you can see, it is done. Now,
9:21let's analyze how good the script
9:23actually is. So, first of all, let's
9:25take a look at the hook. So, it says,
9:27"Would you believe me if I told you that
9:28I grew over a 100,000 tomatoes in a
9:31single season? And I did it without any
9:33fancy equipment, expensive fertilizers,
9:36or years gardening experience. The
9:38secret? Five simple techniques that
9:41completely transformed my tomato growing
9:43game. Techniques I wish someone had told
9:45me years ago when I was struggling with
9:48sad disease plants and tiny harvests.
9:51Now, as you can see, that isn't just a
9:52random intro that it wrote. The algo
9:55script method specifically uses what I
9:57call a pattern interrupt curiosity hook.
10:00So it starts with a question that seems
10:02almost unbelievable and that immediately
10:04grabs the attention. Then after that it
10:06eliminates potential objections to click
10:08away by stating that it didn't require
10:11special equipment or experience which
10:13makes it accessible to anyone watching.
10:15Then finally it creates an information
10:17gap by mentioning five simple techniques
10:20that viewers need to keep watching to
10:22discover. Then after that, here's what
10:23it said. In this video, I'm going to
10:25reveal the exact methods I use to grow
10:27an absolutely insane amount of tomatoes
10:29in my backyard garden. These aren't just
10:31theoretical tips. I've personally tested
10:33each one over multiple growing seasons,
10:36and documented the results. I spent over
10:38200 hours researching tomato growing
10:40techniques from commercial farmers,
10:43agricultural scientists, and
10:45record-breaking gardeners to develop
10:47this system. And today I'm sharing
10:49everything I learned so you can avoid
10:50the years of frustration and filled
10:52harvests that I went through. Plus, I've
10:54created a free downloadable guide with
10:56my complete tomato growing calendar that
10:58you can get in the description down
11:00below. All right, see how it establishes
11:02credibility without boring the viewer.
11:04It mentions 200 hours of research and
11:07multiple growing seasons to build
11:09authority and then immediately creates
11:11what I call a future-pacing statement,
11:14which basically tells them what their
11:15future will look like if they keep
11:17watching, promising to help viewers
11:19avoid years of frustration. It also
11:22introduces a free resource early, giving
11:24viewers another reason to stay engaged.
11:27All right, that was already very good,
11:28but here's where it gets really
11:29interesting. Look at how each content
11:31section is structured. So, in the script
11:33when we're going to show the techniques
11:35to grow the tomatoes, for technique
11:36number one, it starts with imagine
11:39you're at the garden center staring at
11:41dozens of tomato varities completely
11:43overwhelmed. Which ones will actually
11:46produce, which ones will actually taste
11:48good? All right. So, what I did here is
11:49a perfect example of the emotional
11:51transportation technique when it comes
11:53to script writing. Instead of just
11:55listing the facts, it puts viewers in a
11:57scenario that they can relate to,
11:59creating an emotional investment. And
12:00then it introduces a common mistake and
12:03reveals the solution. And that goes on
12:05for every single technique that is in
12:07this script. And so there's a clear
12:09pattern here which looks like this.
12:10Number one, it identifies a common
12:12problem or misconception for the viewer.
12:15It then creates an emotional connection
12:16to that problem. And because that's
12:18relatable, you get the viewers hooked.
12:20You then reveal a surprising insight or
12:22solution. provide specific actionable
12:25advice and then you quantify the
12:27results. Now, this is quite technical,
12:28but basically said this structure is not
12:30on accident. It's designed to maintain
12:32engagement throughout the entire video
12:34by constantly opening and closing
12:37curiosity loops. And we can see this
12:39back at the transitions between the
12:41different sections. So, for example,
12:42here it said, "The key is focusing on
12:45soil temperature, not depth." I'll show
12:47you exactly how to prepare your planting
12:49area for maximum growth in just a
12:52moment. Let me ask you this. Have you
12:53ever tried to cram a 7-ft indeterminate
12:56tomato plant into one of those films
12:583-foot wire cages from the garden
13:00center? So, these transitions use what I
13:02call bridge statements and engagement
13:05questions to maintain viewer attention
13:07during the most critical drop off
13:09moments. The script knows exactly when
13:11viewers typically click away and
13:13counters it with these psychological
13:15triggers. Now, the end of this script,
13:16which is at the conclusion stage, is
13:18equally strategic. Here's what it says.
13:21So, there you have it. The five
13:22techniques that helped me grow over a
13:24100,000 tomatoes in a single season.
13:26Remember, download my free tomato
13:28growing calendar in the description down
13:30below. And so, what it does here is it
13:32recaps the value that you provided in
13:34the video and it reminds them about the
13:36free resource that you might have made.
13:38And then it ends up the script with a
13:39perfect example of how to send a viewer
13:42to the next video on your channel.
13:44Here's what it says. But growing all of
13:45these tomatoes created another problem.
13:48What to actually do with all of them? If
13:50you want to see how I preserved my
13:52massive harvest and the free recipes
13:54that everyone begs me for, check out
13:56this video on the screen right here. And
13:58you see, this creates what YouTube's
13:59algorithm loves the most, session time,
14:02where viewers watch multiple videos on
14:04your channel in sequence. And boy oh
14:06boy, if you can start reaching that
14:08level, YouTube is going to promote your
14:10videos like crazy. Okay, so we broke
14:12down the script that it made in just one
14:13prompt. And I can tell you it's good.
14:15But don't just take my word for it. Let
14:18me ask the AI itself to analyze this
14:20script. And so I'll type in the Poppy
14:22AI. Analyze this tomato growing script
14:25against the ultimate YouTube script
14:26guide. Is it well optimized for viewer
14:29retention and engagements? And what
14:31techniques does it use effectively? And
14:33then as you can see right there, it
14:35says, "This script is exceptionally well
14:37optimized for YouTube performance and
14:39follows all of the best practices of the
14:42YouTube scripting guide." And then at
14:44the end it says, "This script implements
14:46all the advanced retention techniques
14:48from the guide and would likely perform
14:50in the top 10% of YouTube videos in this
14:52category for audience retention." And
14:54there we go. Do you see what just
14:56happened there? The AI not only created
14:58an optimized script, but it understands
15:00exactly why it works. So this text, this
15:03script that it generates isn't just
15:05random information about your topic.
15:07It's strategic content creation based on
15:09proven psychological principles that
15:12keep viewers watching. And the most
15:13impressive part is that this entire
15:15script is generated in less than 60
15:18seconds. Just think about how long it
15:19would take you to write something this
15:21strategically crafted by yourself.
15:23Probably hours if not days. And then
15:25even then, would you know to include all
15:28these psychological triggers and these
15:29certain ways to phrase something in the
15:32right places? Probably not. Even I
15:34don't. And that is the power of the algo
15:36script method. It doesn't just write
15:38words. It creates strategically designed
15:40content that's optimized for the YouTube
15:43algorithm and human psychology. And the
15:46best part is with this system, you can
15:48create scripts like this for any topic
15:50in minutes, even if you know nothing
15:52about script psychology or retention
15:54optimization. However, I know what some
15:57of you might be thinking. But Yuri, I
15:59actually enjoy writing my own scripts. I
16:01I just want them to perform better. And
16:03that's exactly why I built another
16:05powerful feature into this system. So if
16:07you prefer to write your own scripts,
16:09you can simply paste them into Poppy AI
16:11and then ask it to analyze your script
16:14against the ultimate YouTube script
16:16guide. That's what I often do myself as
16:18well. It will instantly identify areas
16:20where your script could be improved for
16:22better attention and it highlights
16:24missing psychological triggers and it
16:26then suggests better hooks and
16:28improvements. Let me actually show you
16:29how I do that. So I can upload the
16:31script of this video into Poppy and then
16:34type in analyze the script and suggest
16:36improvements based on the ultimate
16:38YouTube script guide. So you can see
16:39that overall it says that this script is
16:41very very well optimized for engagement.
16:44But it does give areas of improvement.
16:46So it says recommendation after the hook
16:48at a clearer threepoint preview
16:50structure. In this video I'll show you
16:52number one why traditional script
16:54writing methods are failing most
16:56creators. Number two, the exact algo
16:58script method I use to grow to 30,000
17:00subscribers in just 120 days. And number
17:02three, how to implement this system in
17:04under five minutes per video, even if
17:06you know nothing about psychology. Now,
17:08that sounds pretty good. And so, I can
17:09implement these recommendations that it
17:11gave me, then my script became a whole
17:13lot better. And you can keep going back
17:15and forth until the AI says your script
17:17is perfectly optimized. And that will
17:19give you complete creative control over
17:20the script while still benefiting from
17:23all the psychological insights in that
17:2521page guide. So it's basically like
17:27having a world-class scriptor and
17:29YouTube strategist reviewing your work
17:31in real time. Now at this point I feel
17:33like you have three options for creating
17:35your YouTube scripts. Option one,
17:37continue writing scripts manually. You
17:39can spend between 10 and 20 hours per
17:41script struggling with viewer retention
17:44and watching your videos get buried by
17:46the algorithm. Then if you're only able
17:47to upload one to two videos per month
17:49because script writing takes so long,
17:51your channel growth will remain
17:53painfully slow. And let's be honest,
17:55most creators simply don't have the
17:57specialized knowledge of psychological
17:59triggers and retention patterns that are
18:01needed to write truly high-erforming
18:03scripts. To solve that, you might use
18:05option number two, which is using
18:07generic AI tools like Chad GBT. Because
18:10you might think, why not just use Cad
18:12GBT? It's even cheaper. Now, I thought
18:15the same thing initially, but after
18:17testing it extensively, I discovered the
18:19painful truth. Generic AI tools produce
18:22generic results. They don't understand
18:24YouTube specific retention strategies.
18:26They cannot easily analyze successful
18:28videos in your niche, and they certainly
18:30cannot capture your unique voice without
18:33adding in a bunch of typical AI words
18:35that it uses in your scripts. And so
18:38you'll end up with robotic sounding
18:39scripts that perform no better than
18:41manually written ones. And you'll still
18:43need to spend quite some time editing
18:45it, rewriting them, and just constantly
18:48asking the AI to do a better job. And
18:50then there's option three. Use Poppy AI
18:53with my algo script method. This is the
18:55approach that allowed me to grow to
18:5630,000 subscribers just 120 days on a
19:00brand new channel. So with Poppy AI and
19:02my Algo script template, you can create
19:04scripts in minutes instead of hours.
19:06integrate proven psychological triggers
19:08at exactly the right moments. Maintain
19:11your style and your tone of voice and
19:13produce content that the YouTube
19:15algorithm loves to recommend. You'll be
19:17able to upload more frequently with
19:19higher quality content, which is the
19:20perfect combination to grow your
19:22channel. And so, when you compare these
19:23options, the choice becomes clear. You
19:26can either continue to struggle with
19:27manual script writing or use generic AI
19:30tools that will keep you stuck where you
19:33are or you can use a proven system for
19:35creating scripts that actually perform
19:38with Poppy AI and my Algo script
19:40template board. Now, I want to share
19:42something special that I've created just
19:44for viewers of this video and that made
19:46it this far into the video, which shows
19:48me that you're serious about growing
19:50your channel and you have the capability
19:52to focus because most people already
19:54clicked off this video, but you're still
19:55here, which tells me that you're a
19:57capable person. Now, that said, I've put
19:59together a complete template board
20:01inside of Poppy AAI, which I just showed
20:03you in this video that I actually use
20:05myself, that includes my entire 21page
20:08ultimate scripting guide already loaded
20:11into your board. Now, this template
20:13isn't something I'm making publicly
20:14available or selling as a separate
20:16product because I don't sell any courses
20:18or anything like that. It's a resource
20:20that I've created specifically to help
20:23you implement what you're learning
20:24today. And so if you'd like to start
20:26using this to make the perfect YouTube
