Instructions

Step 1: Lead Magnet Type Selection

Step 2: Ebook Structure

Front Matter (3-5 pages): Cover, title page, about author, table of contents, introduction

Body (15-40 pages): 4-8 chapters covering foundation, core concepts, implementation

Each chapter includes:

• Opening hook (1-2 paragraphs)
• Key concepts (2-3 sections with examples)
• Callout boxes (pro tips, warnings, checklists)
• Chapter summary with takeaways
• Action step for reader

See examples/​content-templates.md for chapter and callout templates.

Step 4: Front & Back Matter

Introduction template: Who this is for, what you'll learn (3 outcomes), how to use the guide, about author/​company.

CTA page: Bridge from content to offer, what's included, clear call-to-action with link.

See examples/​content-templates.md for full templates.

Step 5: Design Specifications

Step 6: Landing Page Copy

3. Case study (day 4): Success story related to topic

See examples/​promotion-templates.md for email templates.

• Too long for format: Split into series or reduce scope.
• No existing content: Start with outline; use research to fill gaps.
