Hi, I'm Virgile

I build BlitzReels and I publish short videos every day. Last month: 92 videos, 760K views. The hardest part is never the recording. It's knowing WHAT to record. This bank fixes that for the next 4 months.

How to use it

Every idea below is a ready-made hook. Pick 5 per week, write 30 to 45 seconds per idea, shoot them in one session. The hook is already written: don't reinvent it, adapt it to your product and your niche.

Repurposing (28)

My highest-leverage category. The content already exists — the podcast is sitting on your hard drive. These hooks work because the viewer instantly sees free output: same effort, twenty times the surface.

  • 1 two-hour podcast = about twenty pieces of content.
  • 5 clips hiding in every podcast episode
  • You record 2-hour videos nobody watches.
  • The 30-second rule for finding a good clip
  • 7 formats hiding inside a single interview
  • Stop publishing full episodes on YouTube.
  • The lazy creator's content calendar
  • 16:9 to 9:16. This step kills 80% of creators.
  • 3 clipping mistakes that kill your clips
  • Your best content is asleep on your hard drive.
  • From 200 to 8K views a month. A podcaster's story.
  • Repurposing is not reposting. The difference costs you.
  • The magic ratio: 1 hour of video = how many clips?
  • Once a week vs 5 times a day. Who wins? (spoiler: not you)
  • The 4-step repurposing workflow. Under 20 minutes.
  • The formats that work best as short clips, ranked.
  • Your podcast is a gold mine. You're leaving the gold underground.
  • 1 45-minute episode = 3 weeks of content.
  • Exhausted creators create more. Smart creators cut.
  • 4 podcasts that blew up thanks to repurposing
  • The difference between a 500-view clip and a 5K one
  • You don't need more ideas. You need more formats.
  • The secret of TikTok accounts posting 3x a day with no team
  • Repurposing in a non-English market: the 3 differences
  • 10 podcasts that should repurpose (and don't)
  • Create TikTok content without ever showing your face
  • I cut 1 hour of video. I got 8 clips out of it.
  • The 5 easiest podcast types to repurpose
