Research-First Hook Methodology

先研究后创作的钩子方法论

Every hook must be traceable to a specific research element. No invention—only discovery.
每个钩子都必须能追溯到特定的研究元素。禁止凭空创造——只能挖掘发现。

Core Philosophy

核心理念

Research first. Every hook has a SOURCE.

The best hooks aren't constructed from templates.
They're extracted from what the brand has already proven, said, or delivered.

If you can't point to where it came from in the research,
it's invention. Invention is weak. Discovery is strong.

"4.8/5, 856 reviews"Social ProofCredibility through numbers
"24-48 hours vs. 3-6 weeks"ContrastClear before/after
"bank said no"Direct AddressCustomer's exact words

Match at least 3-5 research elements to hook types before constructing.

针对每个提取的元素,确定最适合的钩子类型:
研究元素最佳钩子类型原因
"4.8/5, 856 reviews"社交证明式通过数字建立可信度
"24-48 hours vs. 3-6 weeks"对比式清晰展示前后差异
"bank said no"直接触达式使用客户的原话
"$547.5K closed in 24 hours"惊人数据式具体、意外
"350+ lenders"稀缺/获取感式比竞争对手提供更多选择
"AI-powered"好奇心式技术引发兴趣
"Self-employed rejection"问题-解决方案式痛点+缓解方向
"Bank Decline Financing" product直接触达式点明受众处境
"BRRR Strategy Loans" product直接触达式使用投资者术语
在创作钩子之前,至少匹配3-5个研究元素到钩子类型。

Step 3: CONSTRUCT (Build Hooks)

步骤3:创作(打造钩子)

For each hook, use this structure:
HOOK TYPE: [Which type from the 10]
SOURCE: [Which research section + specific element]
TARGET: [Which ICP segment, or "General"]
HOOK: [The actual headline — under 10 words ideal]
WHY IT WORKS: [Psychology — pattern interrupt? self-reference? open loop?]
每个钩子使用以下结构:
HOOK TYPE: [从10种类型中选择]
SOURCE: [研究章节+具体元素]
TARGET: [ICP细分受众群,或"通用"]
HOOK: [实际标题——理想长度10字以内]
WHY IT WORKS: [心理学原理——模式打断?自我关联?开放式悬念?]

Construction Principles

创作原则

Benefits over features:
  • "Get approved in 48 hours" not "Fast processing"
Direct address ("You"):
  • Make it personal, use identity markers
Specificity:
  • "350+ lenders" not "many options"
  • Exact numbers from Proof Points
Empathy first:
  • Acknowledge struggle before offering solution
Their language:
  • Use verbatim phrases from ICP sections
Example Construction:
HOOK TYPE: Contrast
SOURCE: Value Props ("24-48 hour approval") + Pain Points ("banks take 3-6 weeks")
TARGET: Complex Residential Borrowers
HOOK: "Banks take weeks. We close in 48 hours."
WHY IT WORKS: Pattern interrupt (unexpected speed) + Tension (bad vs. good)

利益优先,而非功能:
  • 用"48小时内获批"而非"快速处理"
直接触达(使用"你"):
  • 让内容更个性化,使用身份标识
具体性:
  • 用"350+放款方"而非"众多选择"
  • 使用证明点中的精确数字
先共情:
  • 在提供解决方案之前先认可受众的困境
使用受众的语言:
  • 采用ICP章节中的原文表述

Step 4: BODY + CTA

创作示例:

Body Formula

  1. Expand the hook's promise (don't repeat it)
  2. Add ONE proof element not in the hook
  3. Bridge to CTA
Keep to 1-2 sentences.
HOOK TYPE: Contrast
SOURCE: Value Props ("24-48 hour approval") + Pain Points ("banks take 3-6 weeks")
TARGET: Complex Residential Borrowers
HOOK: "Banks take weeks. We close in 48 hours."
WHY IT WORKS: Pattern interrupt (unexpected speed) + Tension (bad vs. good)

CTA Formula

步骤4:正文+行动号召(CTA)

正文公式

Action Verb + Implied Outcome
Weak CTAStrong CTA
"Learn more""See your options"
"Apply now""Get your answer"
"Contact us""Talk to someone who gets it"
"Get started""Find your lender"
The CTA should feel like the natural next step, not a demand.

  1. 拓展钩子的承诺(不要重复钩子内容)
  2. 添加一个未在钩子中使用的证明元素
  3. 过渡到CTA
控制在1-2句话。

Step 5: VARIETY CHECK

CTA公式

Before finalizing, verify diversity:
动作动词+隐含结果
弱CTA强CTA
"Learn more""See your options"
"Apply now""Get your answer"
"Contact us""Talk to someone who gets it"
"Get started""Find your lender"
CTA应看起来是自然的下一步,而非强制要求。

Hook Types Used

步骤5:多样性检查

  • At least 3 different hook types represented
  • Not all questions, not all stats
在最终确定之前,确认内容的多样性:

Research Sections Used

使用的钩子类型

  • Not all hooks from Pain Points
  • Proof Points used in at least 1 hook
  • Products/Services referenced in at least 1 hook
  • Value Props featured in at least 1 hook
  • 至少使用3种不同的钩子类型
  • 不要全是提问式,也不要全是数据式

ICP Segments Covered

使用的研究章节

  • If multiple segments exist, hooks address different ones
  • Not all hooks targeting same persona
  • 不要所有钩子都来自痛点章节
  • 至少1个钩子使用了证明点
  • 至少1个钩子引用了产品/服务
  • 至少1个钩子突出了核心价值主张

Emotions Triggered

覆盖的ICP细分受众群

Cover at least 3 of these territories:
  • Fear / Protection (what they might lose)
  • Hope / Aspiration (what becomes possible)
  • Frustration / Anger (what's unfair)
  • Relief / Comfort (burden lifted)
  • Pride / Identity (being seen)
  • Curiosity / Intrigue (hidden information)
If variety is lacking, return to Step 2 and find different research elements to match.

  • 如果存在多个细分受众群,钩子需针对不同群体
  • 不要所有钩子都瞄准同一 persona

Output Format

触发的情绪

Write to:
agent/.claude/skills/hook-methodology/hook-bank/{brand}-{YYYY-MM-DD}.md
markdown
undefined
至少覆盖以下3类情绪:
  • 恐惧/保护(可能失去的事物)
  • 希望/抱负(可能实现的目标)
  • 挫败/愤怒(不公平的处境)
  • 解脱/安心(负担减轻)
  • 自豪/身份认同(被理解)
  • 好奇/兴趣(隐藏信息)
如果多样性不足,返回步骤2,寻找不同的研究元素进行匹配。

Validation Checklist (Final Pass)

钩子数量

Before each hook is complete, verify:
  1. Is it TRACEABLE? — Can you point to the exact research element?
  2. Is it OWNED? — Could a competitor use this by changing the logo?
  3. Is it FELT? — Does it name an emotion, not just a fact?
  4. Is it CLEAR? — 3 seconds or less to understand?
  5. Is it THEIRS? — Uses their words, their world?
If any answer is no, revise or replace the hook.

  • 默认: 生成3个钩子
  • 用户指定: 生成用户要求的数量
质量优先于数量。每个钩子必须通过所有验证检查。

Common Failure Modes

最终验证检查清单

The Skip Trap

Skipping Products/Services or Proof Points because they seem "obvious." Every section has hook potential.
在每个钩子完成之前,确认:
  1. 可追溯吗? — 你能指出对应的精确研究元素吗?
  2. 具有专属感吗? — 竞争对手换个logo就能用吗?
  3. 能引发共鸣吗? — 它点明了情绪,而非仅仅陈述事实?
  4. 清晰易懂吗? — 3秒内就能理解?
  5. 符合品牌调性吗? — 使用了品牌的语言和语境?
如果任何问题的答案是否,修改或替换该钩子。

The Generic Trap

常见失败模式

跳过陷阱

Writing hooks that could work for any competitor. Use specific proof points to make it OWNED.
因为看起来“显而易见”就跳过产品/服务或证明点章节。每个章节都有钩子潜力。

The Template Trap

通用陷阱

Starting with a formula and filling in blanks. Start with research elements, then match to types.
写出的钩子任何竞争对手都能用。使用具体的证明点打造专属感。

The Pain-Only Trap

模板陷阱

Only using Pain Points section. Testimonials, Products, and Value Props often contain stronger hooks.
从公式开始,然后填空。应该从研究元素开始,再匹配到钩子类型。

The Invention Trap

只抓痛点陷阱

Creating claims that aren't in the research. If you can't cite the source, don't use it.

仅使用痛点章节的内容。客户证言、产品和核心价值主张往往包含更有力的钩子。

Remember

凭空创造陷阱

Mine the research. Every hook must be traceable.

The goal is not to be clever.
The goal is to find what the brand has already proven
and frame it in a way that stops the scroll.

If you can't point to where it came from, start over.
提出研究中没有的主张。如果你无法引用来源,就不要使用。

请记住

Mine the research. Every hook must be traceable.

The goal is not to be clever.
The goal is to find what the brand has already proven
and frame it in a way that stops the scroll.
