Turn Your Idea Into 80 Scroll-Stopping Hooks With The First-Then-Next Formula
Give the AI your goal, your key steps, and your audience — then let it build hooks around a simple progression people can instantly follow.
You don’t need to be a prompt engineer.
You don’t need to stare at a blank ChatGPT window wondering what to type.
And you definitely don’t need to keep recycling the same tired opening.
The First-Then-Next Formula is a free Killer Hooks tool designed to create step-by-step hooks that naturally pull your audience from one stage to the next.
Tell it:
who you’re creating for
the platform you’re posting on
your topic
your target audience
the end result you want them to reach
the key stages they need to follow
your preferred tone and content format
plus any extra constraint you want the AI to follow
Then the tool builds 8 different strategic prompt directions, including pattern interrupts, audience-specific openings, tension builders, conversational hooks, specificity-driven hooks, and sharper editorial variations.
Each prompt is designed to generate 10 distinct hooks tailored to your topic and platform.
That means one quick setup can give you 80 different hook ideas to work with.
No prompt engineering degree required.
Just add your idea, choose your settings, copy the prompt you like, and let AI do the heavy lifting.
