Alan Moss, Amazon’s VP of Global Ad Sales (and apparently a user-hostile schmuck), appears to have forgotten who Prime Video's customers are. Prime Video costs money. Am I the customer or the product here?

Why it worked

Ends on a question, which is the most reliable way to turn readers into repliers.
Written from experience rather than as advice, which is harder to argue with.
Short enough to read in full without expanding, which removes a step before the point lands.
Short sentences keep the pace up, so the reader never has to re-read a line.

The mechanics

Hook: Plain observation
Structure: Hook → Invitation
Style: Conversational paragraphs at a steady pace.
Tone: personal
Written for: Founders and operators
