We draw inspiration from an interview with 18-year-old YouTuber Jenny Hoyos, who excels at storytelling and creating mass-market content. We emphasize the significance of every second in a video, the necessity for engaging hooks and closing statements, and the value of addressing topics with a broad appeal. Furthermore, we shed light on the effectiveness of withholding answers until the end and the optimal video length for YouTube Shorts.
