24 red-hot scroll-stopping hooks to increase video retention on TikTok

One of the most important elements - if not THE most important element of a video - in terms of retention, whether for a product video or a social media marketing video, is the hook; that is, what is seen and heard in the opening seconds. If you don't engage the viewer within those seconds, you have lost them for good. It's time to prioritize investing energy into crafting compelling hooks. In this blog, I'll give you 24 examples of TikTok hooks that have earned results time and time again.


First, here's 3 types of hooks that help your video become captivating:

  • Verbal hook: what you say and how you say it.

  • Text hook: text that supplements what you're saying in the video, doubling your chances of retention.

  • Visual hook: what you're doing and how you're doing it.


Here's 7 examples of verbal and/or text hooks that have proven results across TikTok.
