💼 Focus: Not Just Monetizing — But Driving Sales, Leads & Signups
Shorts can do more than just get views — they can:
✅ Drive traffic to your email list
✅ Get users to download digital products
✅ Funnel viewers into affiliate offers
✅ Boost Patreon signups or channel memberships
🎯 The “Shorts Funnel” Strategy
- Hook (0–2 sec)
Grab attention FAST: problem, surprise, or curiosity - Value (3–15 sec)
Deliver something helpful, funny, or emotional - CTA (Last 5 sec)
“Link in bio,” “Get the free checklist,” “Watch full vid,” etc.
