Transcript

The rumors are true I've solved yapping. It took me tier videos to study, but everyone's using the tier method. If you think yapping is just brain dumping your thoughts to the camera, you are sorely mistaken because every big creator is using the exact same structure. So let me put you on game. Yes. Say something shocking to the camera. T. Use a text hook that compliments the shocking statement that ultimately drives curiosity. A. Right after the first two, mention an achievement that backs up your claim. R. Road map. Show a visual step by step of how the viewer can achieve the goal of the app video. And R, Recipe. Give your roadmap a unique name that nobody's ever heard of to get them to watch to the very end. This video has used all of these five points of the Tier method and this is how you can yap like a pro. Follow for more. Bye.
