Why it worked

The hook 'Do not move to Miami' is a strong contrarian take that directly challenges a popular aspiration among young entrepreneurs and creator economy folks. Miami is heavily romanticized in this audience's world, so telling them NOT to go there creates an immediate curiosity gap and almost a feeling of being personally challenged. The directness and brevity of the hook makes it feel like urgent, real advice rather than content.

What to replicate

The 'contrarian city or lifestyle warning' pattern works extremely well here. Alex can reuse this by picking other aspirational moves his audience idolizes, like 'Do not quit your 9-5 yet' or 'Do not sign that creator' or 'Do not move to LA', and then delivering a nuanced take that earns the contrarian opener.
