Thực Hành Tốt Nhất Cho Việc Triển Khai
  • 1.
    Know Your Audience:

    Different demographics respond to different hooks. Test and optimize based on your specific audience.

  • 2.
    Combine Multiple Hooks:

    The most effective campaigns use 2-3 complementary hooks (e.g., Social Proof + Scarcity).

  • 3.
    Context Matters:

    A hook that works in B2C might not work in B2B. Consider purchase cycle, price point, and decision-making process.

  • 4.
    Ethical Implementation:

    Use hooks to genuinely help users, not manipulate them. Build trust through transparency.
