See a viral video, click on the link of the bio of the person and see if they've done that same thing at least five or 10 times. If they have, then you're starting to see a pattern of a format that can be used. If not, move on to the next one and find the next creator until you've identified that format.

So don't be afraid to look at a thought leader or an influencer that is in a different industry or sector because it's not about the content that's driving that performance. It's about the context of the way they're talking about it. So often people make the mistake of saying, oh, I'm looking at this finance expert, but I'm in garages. I can't learn anything from that finance expert.
