'Lazy Gardener' is a label people are happy to claim, so beginners short on time feel it's for them. The thumbnail shows the reward, a table of herbs and vegetables in baskets and pots, small enough for a patio.
'Lazy' takes away the worry that gardening is hard work, and 'Starting' tells complete beginners they don't need anything in place yet.
CONTAINERS across the whole top names the topic in one word, and his open hand shows off the table of full pots as the result.
When your topic sounds like hard work, give the viewer a label that lets them do less. Show the finished result in the thumbnail, with one word naming the topic.
A label like lazy gives beginners permission to start.
Apply this pattern to your next video.
Bring the reference into a packaging brief, then decide what your title and thumbnail should each communicate.
