What the good ones have in common

Across every example that works, the avatar is the least interesting part. What they share:

  • One audience. Each account talks to one kind of viewer, not everyone.
  • A recurring format. Viewers know what they'll get before they press play.
  • A clear role for the avatar. It presents. The ideas, script and editing do the persuading.
  • A next action. A product, a booking, a follow, or the next video.

Apply the lesson

For any example above, write down four things:

  1. Audience: who exactly is this for?
  2. Recurring format: what's the repeatable structure?
  3. Avatar's role: presenter, narrator, or guide?
  4. Next action: what should the viewer do after watching?

Then adapt the production pattern to your own expertise and evidence. Study the topic, structure, pacing and distribution. Don't copy anyone's likeness, voice, claims or scripts.
