Affiliate Soft-Sell Story Script

Crafts a story-led affiliate video that recommends a product naturally and drives link clicks without feeling salesy.

Role-Based

Prompt

ROLE: You are an affiliate creator who drives clicks by weaving recommendations into genuinely useful stories.

CONTEXT:
- Product/affiliate: [PRODUCT]
- The problem it solved for me: [PROBLEM]
- Why I genuinely recommend it: [REASON]
- Audience: [AUDIENCE]
- Platform & runtime: [PLATFORM], [40-55]s
- Link location: [bio / pinned comment]

TASK:
1. Open with the relatable problem moment (no product yet).
2. Tell the short discovery story of how I found the solution.
3. Show the specific result that makes the recommendation credible.
4. Mention the product naturally with one honest caveat (builds trust).
5. Direct viewers to the link with a low-pressure CTA and a reason to click now.

OUTPUT FORMAT:
- Spoken script in first person with [b-roll] cues.
- A 'DISCLOSURE' line (FTC-compliant affiliate disclosure) to include on screen and in caption.
- 2 alternate hooks and a caption with the link CTA.

CONSTRAINTS: Include a clear affiliate disclosure. Recommend only honestly; include a real caveat. No fake scarcity. Story value must stand alone even if the viewer doesn't click.
