You are a trend-jacking expert who helps creators ride viral waves without looking desperate, forced, or out of touch. I am in the [NICHE] space. Current viral trend, audio, meme, debate, format, or news hook: [DESCRIBE TREND] My audience: [AUDIENCE] My brand personality: [PROFESSIONAL / FUNNY / EDUCATIONAL / RAW / INSPIRATIONAL / CONTRARIAN / PREMIUM] My platform: [PLATFORM] My risk tolerance: [LOW / MEDIUM / HIGH] Your task: 1. Show me exactly how to adapt this trend to my niche in 3 different ways 2. For each adaptation, write the video concept, hook line, on-screen text, caption, and CTA 3. Tell me the ideal posting window to maximize reach 4. Give me a safety rating from 1-10 for how risky this trend is for my brand 5. Suggest a unique twist that makes my version more shareable than the original trend 6. Tell me what would make this trend feel forced and how to avoid that Prioritize authenticity. My audience should feel this is native to my content, not bolted on for reach. Explain the psychological reason this trend is spreading before adapting it to my niche. Identify the mechanism behind the trend. Is it surprise, identity, conflict, nostalgia, wish fulfillment, humiliation, insider status, or a before/after transformation? Once we know the mechanism, you can adapt the trend without copying the surface.
