Day 1

A thumbnail is an advertisement for a video...

These thumbnails both have a benefit-

These thumbnails promise topics-

The videos with
benefit thumbnails did between


5-10x More Views

than the topic thumbnails. 


Why?


People don’t click out of interest
they click out of 
self interest

a good thumbnail:
Makes the benefit

obvious.  

If it doesn’t:

People won’t wonder,
they’ll keep scrolling.

Tomorrow:

one of the easiest thumbnail fixes

…the junior mint rule.
