Example Hooks

See PROFILE.md for user-specific hook examples and messaging.

General Hook Patterns:

• Bold statement or contrarian view
• Surprising statistic or data point
• Relatable question or pain point
• Personal story or transformation
• Challenge conventional thinking

Avoid

• Academic Lecture: Passive voice, jargon → Active voice, simple explanations, theory tied to practice
• Hype Machine: Clickbait, unsupported claims → Confident but grounded, back claims with data
• Wall of Text: Long paragraphs, no formatting → 1-3 sentence paragraphs, subheads every 200-300 words
• Vague CTA: "Hope you enjoyed!" → Specific: "Download the Superworker Framework template"

Escalate When

• Strategic objective or audience undefined
• Insufficient research to support claims
• Topic outside user's expertise (see PROFILE.md)
• Conflicts with established voice/values
• Word count/scope unrealistic
