Ebook Outline

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when you need to:

• Outline an ebook for use as a lead magnet or paid digital product
• Structure chapters with key points, estimated word counts, and design callouts
• Plan the lead magnet funnel positioning (landing page, opt-in, delivery)
• Create a comprehensive ebook blueprint before writing

DO NOT use this skill to write the full ebook — this produces the outline and strategy only. Use it as the planning phase before drafting.

Core Principle

AN EBOOK THAT TRIES TO COVER EVERYTHING COVERS NOTHING — NARROW THE SCOPE TO ONE TRANSFORMATION THE READER WILL ACHIEVE BY THE LAST PAGE.
