You have less than 2 seconds to earn the watch 👀⏱️
Brock Johnson says it takes about 1.7 seconds on Instagram for someone to decide whether they’re going to stop and watch… or keep scrolling 📲
That means your opening can’t be slow 🚫
You don’t have 10 seconds to warm up.
You don’t have time for a long intro.
You don’t have time to “set the stage.”
Your hook has to make someone instantly think:
“Wait… I need to hear this.” 🎯
That could be a bold statement ⚡
A strong question ❓
A surprising stat 📊
A relatable pain point 😅
Or a visual that immediately grabs attention 👁️
Because on Instagram, people don’t decide later.
They decide almost instantly.
