How the packaging works
Title
The title is a plain search phrase for people who already want the method.
Thumbnail
The thumbnail ties a fortune and a mystery figure to a dry technical topic.
Remix this
Use this when a technical topic has a famous success story behind it. Put the human result in the image and keep the title for searchers. The video must truly connect the method to the man.
