Film day: the two-day event.

Everything that gets filmed or built for the live event at webinar.studiohawk.com. Sep 23 and 24, 12:00 to 1:30 PM ET, one cohort a month, live only, no replay. The date is hardcoded into every script here, and rewriting the last four words is the whole monthly refresh.

How this page works. Review mode (the chip at the right of the Type row) strips every item to its title and the spoken words, with Approve and Edit on each; Approve is saved for everyone like Ready and Filming. Filter by content type at the top: a film day shoots one format at a time, so switch to Talking Head and everything else gets out of the way. Every section collapses. Each item has two buttons, Ready to film once the script is signed off and Filming when it is in the current shoot, and both save to the server, so the board is the same on the studio laptop and at your desk. Any script line, direction or copy block can be edited in place: click it, type, click away. The edit saves for everyone and shows an "edited" badge with a revert. Put your name in the box next to the filters so ticks and edits are attributable.
Length check against the SOPs. SOP-27 governs the 30-second cuts and they check out. The gap is the long half of SOP-26's split, below.

Every script's last cue lands within 1.5 seconds of its stated length. Checked automatically when this page is generated, so it cannot drift silently.
SOP-04 finding: this funnel is missing its long cuts. SOP-04 is explicit that a longer event supports slightly longer ad video, 1 to 2 minutes, and SOP-26 wants half the assets short and half long. Every webinar ad written so far is a 30 or a 60, so the long half of that split does not exist. This is the one real gap the length check found.

How to build them without writing new reasons. Take the 60-second cut and add two beats, in this order: a second objection handled, which SOP-27 allows in a 60 to 90, and the agenda said out loud, because the biggest objection to a paid event is the two days rather than the price. Close on the same last four words: the date, the price, live only, no replay.

The five reasons that carry a 90 best, because they are arguments rather than claims: W22 the six who will never tell you, W26 there is no page two, W29 same landlord, W32 you were sold exercises, and W34 decided before you are in the room. Film those five long on the same day you film them short. Same setup, same shirt.
Three rules for the edit, before anyone opens a timeline.
1. B-roll supports a claim, it never makes one. If the footage is carrying the argument on its own, the script is not finished. One insert per claim, in the middle third, never in the first five seconds.
2. No motion graphics on data. A plain chart reads as evidence, an animated one reads as an ad. Same for numbers: cut to them, do not fly them in.
3. Sound off is the default. Every piece has to survive muted, which means burned-in captions, and any number that matters gets 2.2 seconds on screen minimum. No red anywhere, per SOP-35.
Talking head, cold

SOP-31: one reason per ad, filmed whole. SOP-27 timing on the 30s. The price is the filter on this funnel, so no script says 'for businesses doing $1M+', and every 60 names the date and 'live only, no replay' in the last beat.

W32 · You were sold exercises

30s + 60sFrustrationAnalogy

Reason to buy: the best line in the deck. It reframes years of disappointing SEO spend without blaming the buyer or calling anyone a fraud, and it makes sequence the product.

Film the 30 and the 60. The gym analogy. Needs setup, so 60 is the primary, and it is the strongest candidate of the five for a 90.

30-second cut film this

2 people join the same gym. Same equipment, same fees, same 12 months. One changes shape, one doesn't.

Who it's for

If your business does over a million a year and you're looking at AI search, stay with this.

5-23s

Nobody concludes gyms are a scam. The difference was the programme. Same with your AI SEO strategy. A blog post here, some links there, a technical fix in March: every one of those is a real exercise a good trainer might prescribe. Done in no particular order, they're great exercises for the wrong person.

"Does SEO actually work?" has never had a useful answer. Here's the one that does.

If your business does over a million a year and you're looking at AI search, this is for you.

So the question isn't does SEO work. It's whether anyone was ever running a programme, or whether you were being handed exercises and invoiced. You already know which one you've been buying.

If your business does over a million a year, these three numbers are why AI search matters.

0-5s

Sixty percent of the B2B buying journey is complete before a seller is contacted. Eighty percent of the time, the first vendor contacted wins the deal. And ninety-five percent of winners came off the day-one shortlist. That's 6sense's study of roughly four thousand buyers.

Which means the shortlist is the sale, and it now gets written by a machine, in an answer you never see, before anyone has heard of you.

Talking head, long cuts, to write

The gap SOP-04 opens. Five angles get a 90-second version, which is the 60 plus two beats. The 60 itself is not reprinted here: it is already above under Talking head, cold, and printing it twice made these five look like five more films than there are.

W22 · The six who will never tell you

90s90s = the 60 + 2 beats

The 30 and the 60 for this angle are in Talking head, cold above. Film those first, then stay on camera and add the two beats below. Do not re-shoot the front.

Beat 7, proof. A live AI answer naming two competitors, streaming unedited, no speed-up.

Beat 8, the objection this angle raises. "Our customers aren't using AI." They will not tell you they are, and there is no line in your analytics for the customer who never arrived. That is the whole point of the angle.

SOP-04 is what opens the gap: a longer cut earns its length with proof and with the objection the angle provokes, not with more of the argument. Everything before beat 7 is identical to the 60, which is why it is not printed twice.

W26 · There is no page two

90s90s = the 60 + 2 beats

The 30 and the 60 for this angle are in Talking head, cold above. Film those first, then stay on camera and add the two beats below. Do not re-shoot the front.

Beat 7, proof. The seoClarity figure on a plain card: 90% of AI Overviews cite at least one page from the organic top 10, and more than half cite the number one result (432,000 keywords).

Beat 8, the objection this angle raises. "So SEO is dead." The opposite. Ranking is the entry fee, it gets you into the pool and it does not decide which one to three names go in the sentence.

SOP-04 is what opens the gap: a longer cut earns its length with proof and with the objection the angle provokes, not with more of the argument. Everything before beat 7 is identical to the 60, which is why it is not printed twice.

W29 · Same landlord

90s90s = the 60 + 2 beats

The 30 and the 60 for this angle are in Talking head, cold above. Film those first, then stay on camera and add the two beats below. Do not re-shoot the front.

Beat 7, proof. Cost per lead on Google Ads, $40.74 to $70.11 between 2022 and 2025, WordStream/LocaliQ, as two numbers on screen with the source line under them.

Beat 8, the objection this angle raises. "So you are telling me to stop running ads." No, and we do not even do paid. Put the two numbers next to each other and decide with them in front of you.

SOP-04 is what opens the gap: a longer cut earns its length with proof and with the objection the angle provokes, not with more of the argument. Everything before beat 7 is identical to the 60, which is why it is not printed twice.

W32 · You were sold exercises

90s90s = the 60 + 2 beats

The 30 and the 60 for this angle are in Talking head, cold above. Film those first, then stay on camera and add the two beats below. Do not re-shoot the front.

Beat 7, proof. The three toolkit documents as real pages, scrolling, not a mockup.

Beat 8, the objection this angle raises. "I have done a course like this." Name what is handed over on day two and what it does after the room closes. A course ends; a document you keep does not.

SOP-04 is what opens the gap: a longer cut earns its length with proof and with the objection the angle provokes, not with more of the argument. Everything before beat 7 is identical to the 60, which is why it is not printed twice.

W34 · Decided before you are in the room

90s90s = the 60 + 2 beats

The 30 and the 60 for this angle are in Talking head, cold above. Film those first, then stay on camera and add the two beats below. Do not re-shoot the front.

Beat 7, proof. The shortlist argument said plainly: the names are chosen before anyone speaks to a seller, and the search that decided it is one you will never see.

Beat 8, the objection this angle raises. "We get most of our work through referrals." A referral still gets checked, and the check is now the same machine writing the shortlist.

SOP-04 is what opens the gap: a longer cut earns its length with proof and with the objection the angle provokes, not with more of the argument. Everything before beat 7 is identical to the 60, which is why it is not printed twice.

Static images

The best format this funnel has. A date, a time and a price are read faster than they are heard, and none of them change inside a cohort. The date bar along the bottom is the entire monthly refresh.

Event statics · the eight that carry the offer

4:5Webinar4:5 primary
S1 · the flat statement
HEADLINE: There is no page two of an AI answer.
SUB: You are named, or you are not there.
DATE BAR: Sep 23 + 24 · 12:00 PM ET · live only
Layout: type only, centred, nothing else. The most reusable file in the set.
S2 · the number
HEADLINE: $40.74 → $70.11
SUB: Cost per lead on Google Ads, 2022 to 2025. Up 72%.
SOURCE: WordStream / LocaliQ
DATE BAR: as above
Layout: the two figures at 140pt with an arrow between them, everything else small.
S3 · the screenshot
HEADLINE: 3 businesses get named. None of them are you.
IMAGE: a real, unedited AI answer for a real category, three names visible.
DATE BAR: as above
Layout: screenshot occupies the top two thirds, headline beneath it. The proof is the image, so do not crop it into unreadability.
S4 · the analogy
HEADLINE: You were sold exercises. Nobody gave you a programme.
SUB: Blogs, meta titles, a monthly report. Building toward what?
DATE BAR: as above
S5 · the shortlist
HEADLINE: 95% of winners were on the day-one shortlist.
SUB: A machine writes the shortlist now. 2 days on getting onto it.
DATE BAR: as above
S6 · the calendar
HEADLINE: One cohort a month. No replay.
SUB: SEO in an AI World. Two live days with Harry Sanders.
DATE BAR: Sep 23 + 24 · 12:00 to 1:30 PM ET ·
Layout: the date is the hero here, set at 120pt. This is the scarcity asset and the only one where the date is the headline.
S7 · the price
HEADLINE:.
SUB: 2 days. Live. The whole framework, not a pitch.
DATE BAR: as above
Layout: the price at 200pt, alone in the top half. The cheapest qualification in the funnel, used as the hook.
S8 · the rented / borrowed / owned card
HEADLINE: Rented. Borrowed. Owned.
SUB: Ads stop when you stop. Social is on loan. Only one of the three is yours.
DATE BAR: as above
Layout: three stacked rows, the third in the accent colour. Reads in under 2 seconds, which is the whole test.

Eight files, one date bar, and the monthly refresh is that strip. Run S1, S3 and S6 as the opening three: a flat statement, a proof screenshot and the scarcity. S7 is the one to test against S1 for cold, because a price-led hook either strips out tyre-kickers or strips out serious buyers, and the answer is not predictable from here.

Carousels

Answers 'what do I actually get for two days' with an agenda, which is the objection the ticket does not clear.

C3 · feature-based: what two days actually covers

8 cardsWebinar8 cards

Reason: the single biggest objection to a paid event is not the ticket, it is the two days. This carousel answers "what do I actually get for that time" with an agenda, which no video does as well because the reader wants to scan it.

Card by card
1

2 days is a lot to ask. Here is exactly what is in them.

Hook card. Names the objection instead of dodging it, per SOP-27.

2

Day one: why your rankings can look fine while the traffic goes flat, and what replaced them.

3

The citation map: which businesses AI names in your category, and the 6 signals that decide it.

4

The rent ledger: what you are paying a year for traffic that stops the day you stop.

5

Day two: the build. Which formats to make, in what order, with the study behind the order.

6

How to brief it, whether you have an in-house team, an agency, or neither.

7

Live Q and A. Not a webinar with the questions turned off.

8

Credibility pieces

The same six proof-led pieces the call board carries. They are funnel-agnostic, they were always going to be filmed once for both, and they are what takes the post-registration pool to the library size SOP-02 asks for without another shoot. Credibility does not open a cold piece and does not carry one on its own.

C1 · Samsung came through a chatbot

30-60sNew piece · 45s

The reason: the agency's best client arrived the exact way the agency tells clients they should be arriving. No ad, no referral, no conference handshake. A machine that had never spoken to StudioHawk decided they were the name worth saying, and one of the largest companies on earth acted on it.

"The best client we never pitched arrived through a chatbot. Samsung. No ad, no referral, nobody in the room who knew us."

"If your business does over a million a year, this is how AI search picks who gets named."

"Somewhere between a question typed into a chat box and the answer that came back, a machine decided we were the name worth saying. That is the entire thing we do for clients, and it is how we got the biggest one on our own list. On the audit we show you what it would take for that to happen in your category."

B9, then B1.

Why it is first: this is the strongest credibility story in the whole arsenal and it is currently used nowhere. It is proof and demonstration in the same sentence, and it pre-empts the "do you actually do this yourselves" objection before anyone raises it.

C2 · We read the documents so you do not have to

30-60sNew piece · 60s

The reason: separates the agency from everyone repeating industry assumptions. The ranking patents, the antitrust testimony, 2,500-plus pages of leaked API documentation, all 182 pages of the rater guidelines, then tested against 1.2 million AI referral sessions across 600-plus businesses.

Voiceover over the documents on screen, one at a time. Read each line as its document appears.

"Everybody has a theory about AI search."

"When your business does over a million a year, a theory isn't good enough. So we read what Google actually wrote down."

"Its ranking patents."

"Its testimony in the US antitrust trial."

"More than 2,500 pages of its leaked internal search documentation."

"Its search quality rater guidelines, cover to cover."

"Then we checked it against our own study: 1.2 million AI referral sessions across 600 businesses."

"So when we tell you how AI search works, it comes from what Google wrote down or from our own data. Not from guesswork."

Optional, audit version only. Record it as a separate take and leave it off anything running as Hammer Them:

"Free audit, 30 minutes, and you keep the plan."

B1 throughout, B4 at the close.

C3 · He graded Google's results for six years

30-60sNew piece · 45s

The reason: the framework has a witness. Lawrence spent six years as a contracted human rater applying the same Search Quality Evaluator Guidelines the six-signal framework is built on.

Lawrence to camera. "For 6 years, Google and Bing paid me to grade their results. Same 182-page manual the whole industry speculates about. I did not have to guess what it says, I had to apply it." "If your business does over a million a year and you're looking at AI search, here's why that matters." Then Harry: "That is who built the scorecard we run on your site."

B1 under Lawrence's line.

Note: this is a second face in the library, which SOP-25 supports for the second layer. It also makes the agency look like a firm rather than a founder, which is the objection sitting under "we tried SEO before".

C4 · The slide Google did not want read out

30-60sNew piece · 30s

The reason: a single quote does the entire category reframe. "We do not understand documents. We fake it." Google, Q4 Search All Hands: Ranking, December 2016 (Eric Lehman), shown as evidence in US v. Google.

Voiceover. Show the quote as a full-screen card, credited underneath: Google, Q4 2016 Search All Hands presentation, shown as evidence in US v. Google. Read it exactly as written:

"We do not understand documents. We fake it."

"That's from Google's own internal presentation in 2016, shown as evidence in the US antitrust trial."

"It shows ranking has long leaned on how people react to pages, not just on what the pages say. And Google says its AI answers are rooted in those same core ranking systems."

"If your business does over a million a year, don't just work on your pages. Work on how people respond to you."

B2, then B1.

Warning: quote it exactly and credit it exactly. The strength of this piece is that it is verifiable, and paraphrasing it destroys the only thing it has.

C5 · Two real dashboards, no narration

30-60sNew piece · 30s

The reason: for the segment that has heard enough talking. Clarks and Woodbury, real screens, cursor moving, numbers on the card as they appear.

Voiceover, kept short. Real dashboards on screen, cursor moving. Put each figure on screen with its metric and time period as it is said, and label them as individual client results.

"Clarks. Number one for school shoes at peak season. Organic revenue up 101 percent, year on year."

Beat.

"Woodbury Furniture. Branded clicks up 93 percent, year on year. Referring domains up 52 percent."

Beat.

"For businesses doing over a million a year, that's what search can return. Now it has to win in AI search too."

Optional, audit version only. Record it as a separate take and leave it off anything running as Hammer Them:

"Free audit below."

B8 throughout, B10 as the final card.

Hammer Them: the four windows an event leaks through

SOP-02 and SOP-06, applied to the two-day event instead of the booked call. Sixteen vertical pieces across four windows: six before they register, six between registering and the room, two between day one and day two, and two for no-show recovery. Full library and the campaign build on the webinar Hammer Them page.

WH1 · Is the two days a pitch

verticalObjection

"Straight answer, because you are wondering. Is the 2 days a pitch?"

"If your business does over a million a year and you're looking at AI search, here's the honest answer."

There is an offer at the end of day two. I am telling you that now so you can decide with it in front of you instead of finding out at the end. Everything before it is the method, the same 6 signals we grade paying clients against, and the toolkit is yours either way. Most events like this do not say that upfront, which is exactly why they feel like a wasted afternoon.

"Midday Eastern. Live only."

Kills: "this is a three hour ad". Screen: the agenda on one card while you say what the offer is. No urgency in the voice on the last line, it is information.

WH2 · What two days actually covers

verticalFeature

"If you want to know what you are actually getting for 2 days, here it is."

"It's built for businesses doing over a million a year that are looking at AI search."

Day one is the diagnosis. You run three prompts on your own business and see what the machines say and who they name instead of you, you work out your rent number, and you leave with the six questions to send whoever you pay. Day two is the fix: SOURCE, six pillars in the order they go in, taught against your own homework, and the toolkit, three Claude Skills that run it on your site, handed over before the offer, not after it.

"Midday Eastern, live only."

Kills: "what is this actually". Screen: the two agendas side by side, then the four artefacts as real cards and the three Claude Skills by name. This is the highest-intent piece in the pre-registration set, give it the most budget.

WH3 · Why it is not free

verticalObjection

"Why isn't this free? Fair question, and the answer is not what you think."

"If your business does over a million a year and you're looking at AI search, it'll make sense."

Free events are half empty, because nothing costs anything to skip. What we charge does not cover the time and is not meant to. It is there so the people in the room are the ones who actually turn up, which means I can teach at the level you need instead of the level a cold room needs. If the ticket is the reason you do not come, this was never going to be for you anyway.

"2 days, live only."

Kills: "what is the catch". Screen: nothing but Harry. This is a trust piece and a graphic weakens it. Say the last sentence flatly, without challenge in the voice.

WH4 · Is this for a business my size

verticalObjection

"Would this even work for my business? It is the question I get most, so here is the honest version."

"Short version: if your business does over a million a year and you're looking at AI search, yes."

We run this for a phone case brand, a shoe retailer, a race track and a bookkeeping firm. The 6 signals are the same in all four. What changes is which one is broken. The one thing that does matter is scale: if you are doing at least a million a year you have enough happening for this to move money. Under that, come anyway, but the fixes will take longer to show.

"Midday Eastern. "

Kills: "this is for bigger companies than me" and "this is for e-commerce only". Screen: four category cards, no logos. Naming categories rather than brands lets them find themselves in the list instead of being impressed by it.

WH5 · We already pay someone for SEO

verticalObjection

"You already have someone doing search. So why sit through 2 days about it?"

"If your business does over a million a year and you're looking at AI search, here's why."

Because you are about to be able to grade them. 2 days from now you will know which of the 6 signals your site is failing and which of them your agency has actually touched. That is either the most reassuring thing that happens to you this month, or it is the conversation you have been putting off. Either way you stop guessing, and I am not going to spend 2 days telling you to fire anyone.

"Midday Eastern, live only."

Kills: "we are covered". Screen: the six signal scorecard with two ambers. Do not attack the incumbent, the corpus is clear that only 8% say it out loud even though most are thinking it. Hand them the question, do not ask it for them.

WH6 · Midday Eastern, and there is no replay

verticalObjection

"It is midday Eastern, both days, and there is no recording. Here is why, because it is a fair thing to be annoyed about."

"If your business does over a million a year and you're looking at AI search, it's worth being there live."

A replay turns a room into a video, and a video gets half watched at one and a half speed while you answer email. I would rather have 40 people who are actually there than four hundred who meant to watch it. You can ask questions, and you will get answers, which is the entire reason to do it live.

"Midday Eastern. If that genuinely does not work, there is a cohort every month."

Kills: "I will catch the replay", which is the single biggest reason a registrant never becomes an attendee. Screen: a clock and the two dates, nothing else. This one also runs post-registration, it is the only piece in the set that serves both windows.

WH7 · Put it in the calendar now, properly

verticalShow rate

"You registered. Do one thing right now, before you close this."

"If your business does over a million a year and you're looking at AI search, you're in the right place."

Put both days in your calendar, block 90 minutes each, and mark them busy so nothing gets booked over the top. Not a reminder, an actual block. The people who do not show up are almost never the people who changed their mind, they are the people who got a meeting dropped on the same slot 3 weeks later.

"Two blocks. 90 minutes each. Midday Eastern."

Kills: the calendar conflict, which is the most common cause of a no-show and the easiest to prevent. Screen: a real calendar, blocks being dragged in, marked busy. Serve this within an hour of registration and again the day before. Shortest piece in the set, keep it under 45 seconds.

WH8 · Bring your own site

verticalShow rate

"Come with something to work on, or the 2 days will be interesting instead of useful."

"If your business does over a million a year, bring the site you want found in AI search."

Bring your own site, and bring the three search terms you would most want to be recommended for. Not keywords, the sentences a real person would type. We grade live against the 6 signals, and if you have those three ready you will leave with your own scorecard rather than an example of one.

"Three terms, your own site, midday Eastern."

Kills: passive attendance, which is the thing that makes people drop off halfway through day one. Screen: a notes app with three sentences typed in it. Making them prepare something is itself a show-rate lever, per SOP-18.

WH9 · Bring whoever actually does the work

verticalShow rate

"If someone else runs your marketing, forward them this and get them in the room with you."

"In a business doing over a million a year, AI search often isn't one person's job."

The reason is boring and it is the whole thing. You will hear the 6 signals and decide what matters. They will hear the same 2 days and know which ones your site is failing, because they are the one inside it. Sitting through it separately is how a good plan dies in a handover. Sitting through it together is how you leave day two with the same list.

"Both of you. Midday Eastern."

Kills: the handover gap. Screen: two seats. This is the owner and marketing manager pairing from the call data, applied to the room instead of the script, and it raises attendance twice over because two blocked calendars are harder to overwrite than one.

WH10 · What you get, and when

verticalShow rate

"Here is exactly what you get and when, so nobody dangles it."

"It's built for businesses doing over a million a year that are looking at AI search."

The three Mirror prompts are in your confirmation email now. Run them tonight and write down what comes back, named, missing or wrong. After day one the homework sheet lands at the hub, pre-filled with your prompts. On day two the toolkit, three Claude Skills, is handed over before the offer, and the slides for both days follow after. Nothing is held back for the people who book.

"Midday Eastern."

Kills: "I will get the materials anyway" and "what is actually in this". Screen: a three-row timeline card (now, after day one, day two). Matches the deck: the toolkit is handed over on day two before the offer, the prompts are the only thing you get up front. Astra flagged the old version as contradicting the nurture; the deck settles it.

WH11 · Three prompts, six minutes, before day one

verticalShow rate

"6 minutes of homework, and it will probably annoy you."

"If your business does over a million a year, it shows where you stand in AI search."

Open ChatGPT. Ask it who it recommends for the thing you sell, in your city. Then ask it why. Then ask it what it would take to be on that list. Write down what comes back. That is your starting position, and on day two you will fix the exact gap it just described to you. Almost nobody does this and it is the difference between watching and working.

"Three prompts. Midday Eastern."

Kills: showing up cold. Screen: the three prompts typed live, answers streaming, unedited, including the part where it names a competitor. Do not speed it up. This is the product demonstrating itself and it is the strongest asset in the post-registration set.

WH12 · Nine and a half billion visits a month

verticalShow rate

"One number, so the 2 days feel worth 90 minutes of your week."

"If your business does over a million a year and you're looking at AI search, this is for you."

Nine and a half billion visits a month across the AI tools now, up 70 percent in a year. That is Similarweb measuring it, not us. We measured the other half: 1.2 million AI referrals across 600 businesses, and which pages actually get cited. That is what the 2 days is built on. Not opinion, and not a theory about where this is going.

"Midday Eastern."

Kills: "is this speculative". Screen: the Similarweb attribution as a plain source card, then the Format Leverage bar chart. Attribute Similarweb out loud every time, the strength of the number is that it is someone else measuring a market rather than a vendor measuring itself. No animation on the chart.

WH13 · Day one was the diagnosis. Day two is the fix

verticalDay two

"Day one was the diagnosis. Day two is the half that changes anything."

"If your business does over a million a year and you're looking at AI search, don't miss it."

On day one you found out which of the 6 signals your site is failing. Day two is what to do about each one, in the order that matters, and the part nobody teaches: how to build a page a machine will quote instead of skim. If you stop at day one you have a diagnosis and no treatment, which is genuinely worse than not knowing, because now you will think about it every week.

"Midday Eastern. Same link."

Kills: the day one to day two drop, which is the steepest in a two day event and currently has no creative against it. Screen: yesterday's scorecard with the red rows, then today's agenda. Serve the evening of day one and again ninety minutes before day two.

WH14 · The thing you made yesterday is half finished

verticalDay two

"If you actually did the exercise yesterday, you have a half-built asset sitting there."

"For a business doing over a million a year, that's the start of your AI search plan."

You mapped your 6 signals and found the two that are red. Today we take them and build the fix live, on your own site, in the session. That is not a thing you can catch up on afterwards, because the whole point is doing it while someone who does this every day is watching.

"Midday Eastern. Bring what you made yesterday."

Kills: "I got the gist". Screen: a half-completed scorecard, honestly half completed. Loss aversion is the right lever here and it only works because it is true, they really do have unfinished work.

WH15 · You missed day one

verticalNo-show

"You booked day one and something got in the way. Happens, and there are two ways out of it."

"If your business does over a million a year and you're looking at AI search, take one of them."

Day two is still on, midday Eastern, and it stands on its own better than you would expect, because it is the practical half. Or tell us and we will move you to next month's cohort, no charge twice. What I would not do is nothing, because the scorecard is already in your inbox and it will sit there unread until this is in a calendar again.

"Day two, midday Eastern. Or reply and we will move you."

Kills: the quiet write-off after a missed session. Screen: the two options as two cards, nothing else. HARRY, CONFIRM BEFORE FILMING: this promises a free move to the next cohort. It is the right offer and it costs nothing on a low-priced ticket, but it is an operational commitment and it is not mine to make. Say the word and it stays, say no and the line comes out.

WH16 · There is another one next month

verticalNo-show

"You missed it. There is one every month, and the honest question is whether you will make that one."

"If your business does over a million a year and you're looking at AI search, make that one."

Nothing about your site changed while you were not there. The pages a machine cannot read are still unreadable, the competitor being named instead of you is still being named. That is not a guilt trip, it is just the situation, and it is the same situation next month except a month further in. Same 2 days, same price, same live only.

"Next cohort is in the link. Block it this time."

Kills: the drift from missed to forgotten. Screen: the next dates. Flat delivery, no reproach in the voice, the line about nothing having changed does the work on its own and it stops working the moment it sounds like a telling off. Serve for fourteen days after the missed cohort, then stop.

B-roll and the edit

Shoot once, reuse everywhere. The full-room footage matters more on this funnel than any other, because it shows the buyer the thing they are actually buying.

Full rooms, from stage

B-roll

What it is: Wide and mid shots of Harry presenting to a full room. Cutaways of the audience, not just the speaker.

Where it goes: Use it under any claim about authority, or about the two-day event being a real room rather than a webinar deck. It is the best asset the event funnel has because it shows what the buyer is buying. Do not use it under a results or data claim: a full room proves attention, not outcomes, and pairing it with a number reads as misdirection.

Last cohort's room, if it was filmed

B-roll

What it is: Any usable footage from a previous run of the two-day event, including the chat and the Q and A.

Where it goes: The strongest possible proof for a paid event, because it shows the thing itself rather than a claim about it. Blocked until a cohort has been filmed with permission to use it, so check before promising it to an editor.

Press and news appearances

B-roll

What it is: Harry on air or quoted, with the outlet's name legible. One clean frame per outlet.

Where it goes: Third-party credibility, and it survives sound off. Two seconds, middle third. Never open with it, and never cut three outlets together: a montage of logos reads as an agency sizzle reel, which is exactly the register SOP-35 warns against.

Awards, one frame only

B-roll

What it is: The wall, or one trophy being handed over. Forty-plus awards exist. Use one shot.

Where it goes: Middle third of a piece answering 'are you actually different'. SOP-35 is explicit that the bigger the claim the lower the quality of the person it attracts, and awards are the easiest thing on this list to overdo. One frame, once, per piece.

Office and team at work

B-roll

What it is: 120-plus specialists across three countries. Real desks, real screens, nobody staged pointing at a laptop.

Where it goes: Under any line about being a firm rather than a founder, which is the objection sitting under 'we tried an agency before'. Also the safest filler when a script needs a cutaway and nothing else fits.

Screen recordings, shot fresh

B-roll

What it is: A live AI answer, a real SERP, a real client dashboard, a cursor that moves like a person's.

Where it goes: Everywhere. The highest-value footage on this list and the only category that expires: re-shoot monthly, because the answers change and a stale screenshot becomes a liability.

The primary sources

B-roll

What it is: The 182-page rater guidelines, the 2,500-page API leak, antitrust exhibits, an open ranking patent.

Where it goes: Under any claim about how the machines decide. The only footage that proves someone read the source, it costs nothing to capture, and no competitor has it.

B1 · The primary sources, on screen

B-roll

a slow scroll through the actual documents. All 182 pages of Google's Search Quality Evaluator Guidelines. The 2,500-plus pages of leaked Content Warehouse API documentation and its 14,014 attributes. The internal Google slides and sworn testimony from the US antitrust trial. A ranking patent, open, with the title visible.

Why it works: every agency says "we know how Google works". This is the only footage that proves someone read the source. It costs nothing, it cannot be faked convincingly, and it makes the next claim in the piece land as fact rather than opinion.

Where it goes: under any claim about how the machines decide. Specifically the "how we pull the citation gap" piece and "what the free audit actually contains".

B2 · "We do not understand documents. We fake it."

B-roll

that sentence, alone, as a full-screen card, credited beneath it: Google internal presentation, surfaced in the US antitrust trial. Then cut to Harry.

Why it works: it is Google saying the quiet part on the record, and it reframes the whole category in one line: the system measures the reaction around a document at least as much as the words inside it. Nobody in the market is using it.

Where it goes: the strongest possible opener for a second-layer piece, and the best single card in the library for a static reel.

B3 · The man who graded Google's results

B-roll · talking head

Lawrence Hitches to camera, thirty seconds. He spent six years as one of the contracted human raters who grade results for Google and Bing against the Search Quality Evaluator Guidelines the framework is built on.

Why it works: this is the single most defensible credibility claim the agency owns and it is currently used nowhere. Not "we studied the guidelines", but "one of us was handed them and paid to apply them, for six years". It turns the six-signal framework from a marketing construct into something with a witness behind it.

Where it goes: the "what the free audit actually contains" piece, and it deserves its own piece. See C3 below.

B4 · The study, as a chart

B-roll

the Format Leverage ranked bar chart, static, five bars, held for four seconds. Source card beneath: StudioHawk, 24 August 2026, 1,203,748 AI referral sessions across 600-plus businesses and 7.5 million classified pages.

Why it works: original research, published, quotable by name. A plain chart reads as data; an animated one reads as an ad, so do not animate it.

Where it goes: anywhere a format or content recommendation is made.

B5 · The book, physically

B-roll

the manuscript or proof copy on a desk, hands turning pages, the notes section with its citations visible. Two or three seconds, no lingering.

Why it works: a book is the oldest credibility shorthand there is and it survives sound-off. It also quietly answers "is this person actually an authority or just running ads".

Where it goes: as a two-second cutaway inside any long-form piece. Never as a hook, because leading with a book reads as selling a book.

B6 · The foreword

B-roll

the foreword page, with the author's line visible: the founder of iProspect, the first search engine marketing firm, which grew into a global agency of 8,000 people across 93 markets.

Why it works: borrowed authority from the person who invented the category, and he wrote it voluntarily. One card, no voiceover needed.

Where it goes: long-form layer only. It needs the context of a longer piece to mean anything.

B7 · The awards wall, used sparingly

B-roll

one shot, not a montage. Forty-plus industry awards, Forbes 30 Under 30, B&T Entrepreneur of the Year, and Agency Leader of the Year at the US Search Awards 2026 for Sophie Brannon, who leads the US arm.

Why it works: it is real and it is checkable.

The warning matters more than the asset: SOP-35 is explicit that the bigger the claim, the lower the quality of the person it attracts. Awards persuade peers and impress nobody who is deciding whether to spend money. Use one card, once, in the middle of a piece, never as a hook and never as a sequence.

Where it goes: the "we tried SEO before and it didn't work" objection piece, where the question underneath is "are you actually different".

B8 · Real client dashboards

B-roll

a real account, real numbers, cursor moving, no zoom-and-swoosh. Clarks: number one for "school shoes" at peak season, first-page visibility on 90 percent-plus of targets, 101 percent year-on-year lift in organic revenue. Woodbury Furniture: referring domains up 52 percent, branded clicks up 93 percent year on year, 40-plus editorial placements including the AFR and news.com.au.

Why it works: a moving cursor over a real dashboard is the cheapest proof-of-life signal in direct response, and both of these results are already published in the book, which means they are cleared.

Where it goes: under "where the 621 percent came from" and every objection piece.

B9 · A live AI answer naming a client

B-roll

a real prompt, typed live, where the answer names a StudioHawk client. Let it stream. Do not speed it up and do not cut the pause before the names appear.

Why it works: it is the product demonstrating itself. Everything else on this page is a claim about a result; this is the result happening on camera.

Where it goes: everywhere. This is the highest-value single asset on the list and it should be re-shot monthly, because the answers change and a stale screenshot is a liability.

B10 · The quote that is already cleared

B-roll

a plain quote card. "The team came up with creative PR and SEO campaigns that got people actually talking about our brand." Ashlie McKinnon, General Manager, Woodbury Furniture.

Why it works: it is the one named, attributed client quote already published in the book, so it needs no fresh approval. Every other testimonial in this funnel is still blocked on getting quotes in writing; this one is not.

Where it goes: the testimonial carousel on the formats page, which is otherwise entirely blank, and as a mid-piece card in the objection layer.

Dimensions, safe areas, type and colour, once, for every format on this page. Nothing here gets filmed.

Spec, once, for all of them

Reference
Build spec
9:16, 1080 x 1920. Safe area: keep all text between 250px from the top and 420px from the bottom, because Reels and Stories chrome eats both ends.
Type: Archivo, 800 weight for the card line, 400 for any source line. White on near-black (#0d0f14). One accent only, Picton blue #3DB7E9, used on the single word that carries the turn.
No red anywhere (SOP-35). No stock-footage people pointing at laptops. No music with a drop.
B-roll: screen recordings of a real AI answer, a real SERP, a cursor scrolling a real report. Filming your own screen is both cheaper and more credible than any stock library.
Captions burned in, not auto-generated, because the text is the ad.
Length: 12 to 22 seconds. If a reason needs more than 22 seconds as text, it is a talking head, not a reel.

Spec, once, for all of them

Reference
Build spec
Sizes: 1080 x 1350 (4:5) as the primary, 1080 x 1080 (1:1) as the fallback, 1080 x 1920 (9:16) for Stories. Build 4:5 first, crop down.
Text: under 20 words total on the image. Headline at 64pt minimum on a 1080 canvas.
Type: Archivo 800 for the claim, 400 for the source line and the date bar.
Colour: near-black ground #0d0f14, white type, one accent. Picton #3DB7E9 for the call funnel, Yellow #FECF40 for the event date bar so the two funnels are visually separable in the ad account at a glance. No red (SOP-35).
The date bar: a fixed strip along the bottom on every event static reading "Sep 23 + 24 · 12:00 PM ET · live only". This strip is the monthly refresh. Nothing else on the file changes.
Source lines: any static carrying a statistic carries its source in 400 weight beneath it, always. This is the whole credibility difference between these and a generic agency ad.
No stock photography of people. Screens, charts and type only.

Cold, warm and the split

Reference
Cold
Formats 1, 2 and 3 only. Talking head carries the budget, static reels fill the gap while a film day is being scheduled, statics carry the event because the date and price are the offer. Feature carousels (C1, C3) can run cold and often do well, because they answer "what is this" before asking for anything. Testimonials never run cold.
Retargeting
Formats 4 and 5, plus the Hammer Them library. This is where testimonial carousels earn their place: the viewer already knows what the offer is and is deciding whether it is real. Exclude anyone who has converted.
The split, if you are starting from nothing
60% format 1 (talking head), 20% format 2 (static reels), 15% format 3 (statics), 5% format 4 (carousels) on cold. Everything in format 5 sits in retargeting on a separate small budget. Revisit after the first 30 days on actual cost per booked call, not on cost per lead, because the whole point of the $1M+ bar and the price is that they buy a worse lead number and a better call.
Naming and tagging
Every asset above carries a tag parameter and a file name. Keep both. The tag is what makes the dashboards able to answer "which reason worked", and the file name is what stops the ad account becoming unreadable at 40 assets. Format prefix, number, name, length: SH_Reel_R2_SameLandlord_16s.
