So your video flopped. Here’s how to turn it into your first viral success in 60 seconds.

Just because it flopped doesn’t mean your core message was bad, you just need to change how you have packaged it.

Let's Talk Formats: Your Video's Makeover

When a video doesn't quite hit the mark, it doesn't mean the message is flawed. It simply suggests that the way it was packaged didn't quite connect with your audience. The key here is to unleash the power of formats – different ways to present your content that breathe new life into your creative process.

The Magic Lies in Formats: Unleashing Potential Viral Hits

Picture this: You wanted to create a video about baking a cake, right? But your first attempt was a bit…undercooked. Don’t hang up your oven mitts yet. The same idea can be approached from multiple angles, each offering a fresh take on the core concept:

  • $1 Vs $1,000 Cake
  • How to Bake a Cake with Just Dollar Store Ingredients
  • This Cake Takes 100 Hours to Make

These diverse packaging options are like the secret recipes of content creation – we call them "formats." By delving into and researching different formats, you'll unlock game-changing insights that can breathe new life into your previous video.
