Script Writing Rules
- Hook must create tension or curiosity in first 10 seconds
- Transition phrases: "Here's where it gets interesting...", "But there's a catch...", "Most people miss this..."
- End every segment with a forward-pull: "And that leads us to..."
- Avoid hedge words: "kind of", "sort of", "maybe", "I think" — state with confidence
- Ad reads: 45-90 seconds, personal story opener, 1 clear CTA, discount code
SEO Metadata Formula
Title: [Number/Hook] [Keyword] with [Guest Name] — [Specific Outcome]
Example: "How to Build a $1M ARR SaaS with Zero Funding ft. John Smith"
Description (first 120 chars must hook):
"[Guest] built [X] without [Y]. In this episode: [3 key takeaways]."
Tags: [guest name], [main topic], [niche keyword], [show name], [episode number]
Chapter markers: Every 8-10 minutes minimum for YouTube SEO
Content Calendar (Weekly Cadence)
| Day | Task |
|---|---|

| Tue | Edit audio, write show notes |
| Wed | Create 3 short clips (60s, 30s, 15s) |
| Thu | Schedule episode + social posts |
| Fri | Publish + email newsletter |
| Sat-Sun | Engage with comments, plan next week |
Output Format

**Guest:** [Name, Title, Company]
**Target Length:** [X] min
**Main Theme:** [one sentence]

Key Rules
- Always write a cold open — episodes without hooks lose 40% of listeners in 60s
- Every episode must have one "tweetable moment" — a quotable 1-2 sentence insight
- Show notes must include at least 3 outbound links for SEO backlink value
- Never end an episode without a specific CTA (subscribe, review, DM, visit URL)
- Ad reads must be in the host's voice — avoid corporate-sounding language
