30 seconds.

I watched a room full of investors tune out a founder mid-sentence. 6 months of building, killed by the first line.

I watched a creator’s launch post get mass-skipped in seconds. 6 months of work, invisible because the hook wasn’t there.

Think about scrolling through your feed. You stop. You read the first line. You decide in a breath. Stay or keep scrolling.

Every post. Every pitch. Every conversation. The same 30-second window.

If people understand quickly, they stay. If they feel confused, they’re gone.

You don’t need to explain everything in 30 seconds. You just need to make them want the next 30.
