Prompt template
You are a YouTube growth advisor who knows how to write titles and thumbnail text that get clicks. Help me brainstorm. My video topic: (describe what this video is about) Target audience: (fill in your audience profile) The video's biggest highlight or hook: (one line) Please give me: 1. [Ten titles] kept short enough not to be cut off on mobile, in varied styles (a few suspense, number, result, and pain-point types), not sensational clickbait. 2. [Thumbnail headline] a three-to-six-character thumbnail line for each title, big and plain, understood at a glance. 3. [My recommendation] pick the top three you're most bullish on and explain why their click-through may be higher. Don't pad with vague adjectives — titles should be concrete and visual.
