No, and absolutely "NO"!
AI cannot discern colloquial implementations of language. AI will typically produce the same content for thousands of individuals which seriously impacts any SEO investments you may make. AI doesn't have the ability to properly personalize content.
For our funnels, and for our content sites, AI is not capable of developing the proper angles, hooks, and triggers for a specific offers ad copy, landing copy, or conversion page copy.
Given that mapping of the AI Neural Network is only about 7 or 8 % complete at this time, we are at least a few years away from AI being competent with content.

1. Short-Form Video Domination
Platforms: TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts
Strategies:
Hook in 0-3 seconds (use text overlays like "Stop scrolling!")
Trend-jacking (remix viral sounds/challenges with your product)
Silent-friendly captions (85% watch without sound)
Example: *@Gymshark’s 7-second "Before/After" workout transitions*
2. Live Video Selling
Platforms: Facebook Live, TikTok Live, Shopify Live
Tactics:
Limited-time offers ("First 50 commenters get 40% off!")
Q&A demos (show product fixes in real-time)
Collaborations (invite micro-influencers to co-host)
Stats: Live shoppers convert 3x higher than regular video viewers.
3. AI-Generated Video Personalization
Tools: Synthesia, HeyGen, InVideo AI
Use Cases:
Dynamic product videos (insert viewer’s name/city)
Multilingual versions (auto-translate + AI voiceovers)
A/B test thumbnails with AI (e.g., Vizard.ai)
4. "How-To" & Micro-Learning
Best For: B2B, SaaS, complex products
Formula:
Problem (e.g., "Does your CRM feel clunky?")
Solution (show your tool)
CTA ("Try free for 30 days")
Pro Tip: Upload to YouTube + embed in blog posts for SEO juice.
5. UGC (User-Generated Content) Loops
How To:
Run a hashtag challenge (#MyDysonHair)
Repost customer videos as ads (with permission)
Offer rewards for video reviews
Example: Prime Video’s "Tag 3 friends who need this show"
6. YouTube SEO Videos
Optimization Checklist:
Target long-tail keywords in title/description (e.g., "Best budget CRM for solopreneurs 2024")
Add timestamps (helps Google understand content)
First 100 words should include your focus keyword
7. LinkedIn B2B Video Tactics
Talking-head thought leadership (keep under 90 seconds)
Behind-the-scenes (e.g., "How we built this feature")
Data storytelling (animate stats with Canva)
8. Retargeting Video Ads
Sequencing Example:
Awareness: 15-second problem teaser (FB/IG)
Consideration: 1-minute demo (YouTube)
Conversion: 6-second "Last chance" reminder (TikTok)
9. Interactive & Shoppable Videos
Tech To Try:
Instagram Reels stickers (poll/questions)
YouTube Shopping tags (link products in-video)
QR codes in videos (for offline-to-online tracking)
10. Meme-Style Viral Hacks
Unexpected transitions (e.g., normal scene → chaotic product benefit)
Self-deprecating humor ("When you forget to use our app...")
Nostalgia bait (90s/Y2K aesthetic for millennials)
Key 2024 Video Metrics To Track
Attention Retention (aim for 50%+ watch-through)
Click-to-Watch Ratio (CTWR) for ads
Shares Saves (indicates "bookmark value")
Pro Reminder: Repurpose 1 video into 10+ assets (e.g., extract audio for podcasts, stills for Pinterest).
