Steal My Reels Script Formulas Part 2: Examples
A few weeks ago I posted some formulas that you could use to make better scripts for your Reels ads (and TikTok posts) based on the most successful Reels ads that I've run.
Well I finally had a little bit of free time to work on this for you, and am happy to share some specific examples of 5-card, 10-card and 15-20 card scripts using the formulas outlined in my previous post for a couple of fictional novels.
If you need a refresher on the script formulas, feel free to check out my original post (linked at the bottom). But to give you a quick recap - these are examples of how I formulate scripts for Reels ads that I run on Facebook. Each script is written in Second Person POV, and follows specific beats outlined in my original post. I use 5-card, 10-card and 15-card setups that are intended to run for 15s, 30s and 45-60s each respectively. By 'card' I mean a caption that appears on-screen.
5-Card Script A:
You're a burned-out rock star, ready to quit music forever.
Then SHE shows up at your studio - a classical violinist who doesn't even know who you are.
You're drawn to her passion, but your record label threatens to ruin her career if you leave.
On stage together, your music and hearts sync perfectly. But is it enough?
Will you choose love or your career? Read "Melodies of the Heart" by Definitely Real Author to find out!
5-Card Script B:
Your family's bakery is one missed payment away from closure. Then HE walks in - 8 feet tall, covered in fur, and smelling of pine.
"I'll save your bakery," the sasquatch mafia boss growls, "if you agree to be my fake wife for a month."
Between kneading dough and dodging rival cryptid gangs, you find yourself falling for the gentle giant with a gruff exterior.
"This can't work," you whisper, flour on your cheek. He cups your face with his massive hand. "Why not, little eclair?"
Will you risk it all for a taste of forbidden love? Devour "Baking with Bigfoot" to see if this unlikely pair can cook up a happy ending!
10-Card Script A:
You're a rock star at the top of your game, but dead inside.
Music used to be your passion. Now it's just noise.
You're ready to quit when SHE walks into your studio.
A classical violinist who doesn't recognize you - and doesn't care.
Her passion for music reignites something in you.
But your record label sees her as a threat.
They give you an ultimatum: her career or yours.
On stage together, your music creates magic. But is it enough?
You have to choose: the music industry or the woman who reminded you why you loved music.

10-Card Script B:
You're up to your elbows in dough, but the bills keep piling higher than your pastries.
The bank's final notice arrives. You have 30 days to pay or lose the bakery that's been in your family for generations.
That's when HE lumbers in - a sasquatch in a tailored suit, ducking to fit through the door.
"I have a proposition," he rumbles. "Be my fake wife for a month, and I'll clear your debts."
Suddenly, you're attending cryptid mafia meetings and learning to bake bigfoot-sized cookies.
But rival gangs are suspicious. The Loch Ness Mob thinks your marriage is a sham.
As danger mounts, so does the heat between you. His touch leaves you trembling - and not from fear.
"This was supposed to be fake," you murmur as he leans in, his breath smelling of your lemon tarts.
Just as your lips meet, the bakery door bursts open. "We know the truth!" a goblin gang leader shrieks.
Will your half-baked plan rise to the occasion, or crumble under pressure? Find out in "Baking with Bigfoot" - where love is the secret ingredient!
15-Card Script A:
You're a rock star who's lost his love for music.
Partying, fame, money - it all feels empty now.
You're ready to walk away from it all.
Then SHE walks into your studio, violin case in hand.
A classical musician who doesn't even recognize you.
Her passion for music stirs something you thought was dead.
You find yourself looking forward to your sessions together.
But your record label isn't happy about your new "distraction".
They threaten to blacklist her from the classical world if you quit.
Your best friend warns you're risking everything you've built.
But when you play together, it's like nothing you've ever felt.
Your music and hearts sync perfectly on stage.
Now you have to choose: your career or the woman who brought music back to your life.
Is love worth sacrificing everything you've worked for?

15-Card Script B:
You're working another 18-hour day at your family's struggling bakery. The ovens are old, but the memories are priceless.
The final notice comes: pay $100,000 in 30 days or lose everything. You sink to the floor, covered in flour and despair.
The bell chimes. You look up to see a sasquatch ducking through the door, impeccably dressed save for his bare, hairy feet.
"I'm here about the bakery," he growls softly. Your heart races - with fear or excitement, you're not sure.
His offer is simple: pose as his wife for a month to help him secure his position as head of the cryptid mafia. In return, he'll save your bakery.
Suddenly, you're living in a mansion, attending shady meetings, and baking scones for a yeti book club.
But it's not all business. He's surprisingly gentle, helping you pipe icing and listening to your dreams.
The Mothman Mafia grows suspicious. "Prove your love," they challenge at a gala.
His kiss is fierce and unexpected. It leaves you breathless - and wanting more.
As weeks pass, the lines blur. You find yourself falling for his kind heart and dry humor.
You overhear him defending you to his consigliere. "She's not part of this world," he insists protectively.
The night before your "contract" ends, he takes you dancing under the stars. "I don't want this to end," you confess.
Just then, rival gang members attack. He shields you with his massive body.
In the chaos, you realize: you'd risk everything - bakery included - to stay by his side.
