Have you noticed that value content doesn't work anymore?

Hot take

Why it works
The video works because it attacks a sacred cow—'value content'—for creators who feel their educational posts are underperforming, instantly resonating with their frustration. It then uses a concrete, impressive metric (90,000 followers in two weeks) as proof that the creator has found a better approach, building authority. Structurally, the 'net new value' three-part framework gives viewers a simple mental model that feels fresh and inherently anti-AI, tapping into current anxiety about generic, AI-generated content.
Swipe-file takeaways
- Call out a widely accepted tactic as ineffective to create instant tension with your target audience.
- Follow a contrarian opener with a specific growth result to establish credibility fast.
- Package your advice into a named framework (like 'net new value') so it’s memorable and proprietary.
- Define clear criteria (non-obvious, tactical, lived experience) that help viewers self-audit their content.
- End with a hard line ('don’t even make the video') to polarize and increase shareability among serious creators.
