Marketing Tech and AI News + Content Trends for Coaches: July 9

Use these content trends to get more video views and leads, and get a scoop on the latest marketing tech and AI news on July 9 2026:

Here are a few viral video hooks and content ideas to get more views and leads:

The “Stop Being a Loser” Hook: Open with a deliberately provocative statement that challenges your audience’s identity, then reveal that the real problem is the bad advice they’ve been following – not their effort or willpower.

Diary of a CEO does this in “YOU’VE BEEN LIED TO ABOUT FAT LOSS”, where Dr. Stephanie Estima opens with “I want women to stop being losers” and argues that women have been sold a lie that their worth is tied to the number on the scale.

The provocative opener creates a strong pattern interrupt, and the message immediately shifts blame from the viewer to the advice they received, making them feel validated rather than attacked.

Here’s an example: “Stop blaming yourself for not hitting your revenue goals. The business model you were sold is the problem, not your work ethic.”
The “Proxy Access” Hook: Promise a massive outcome, then offer a simple, accessible action as the bridge, framing it as the closest thing to sitting in the room with the people who’ve already achieved it.

Dan Martell does this in “3 books only the top 1% have read”, where he opens with “If you want to become the first millionaire in your family, you have to learn how rich people think,” then recommends three specific books.

This works because it closes with a powerful line: “Even if you can’t sit in a room with a ton of millionaires, you can at least sit inside their minds,” which makes the advice feel both aspirational and immediately actionable.

Here’s another example: “You can’t afford a $50k mastermind yet, but you can learn the same information every member of that mastermind has learned before their big breakthrough.”
The “Fast Forward Your Feelings” Hook: Teach your audience a step-by-step mental trick to eliminate the dread of a task before they even start it, using a relatable, everyday example.

Oz Pearlman does this in “This Trick Erases Anxiety in 24 Hours”, where he walks through his four-step process using the example of dreading a confrontation with his landscaper over money.

He rates his dread a 9 out of 10, sets a phone alarm for 24 hours labeled “Dread talking to landscaper,” forces himself to make the call immediately using the 5 Second Rule, and then checks in the next day to find his dread has dropped to a 1 or 2.

He calls this “fast forward your feelings” – mentally simulating the relief you will feel 24 hours after completing the task so you can feel it right now, before you start.

Give your audience an actionable tip to fast-forward to their feelings to their desired outcome.
