The outline
6 chapters, and what each one is doing.
Nothing is held back here. Build it with CreateEbook or build it in a word processor — the structure is the useful part.
The number that matters
Define the one metric the book is about, precisely enough that the reader can calculate their own before the next page.
What good looks like
Benchmarks. Ranges, not single figures, and say where they came from. A reader who finds out where they stand is now invested.
The four reasons yours is low
Diagnostic chapter. Each cause gets a symptom the reader can check for, so this doubles as a self-assessment.
The playbook
One tactic per cause, written so a product manager could ship it on Thursday. Screenshots of the change, not of your dashboard.
How to know it worked
The measurement plan — what to watch, for how long, and what counts as noise. This is the chapter competitors leave out.
The two-week version
Everything above, compressed into a schedule. The page most likely to end up on a wall.
Why this shape works
Three reasons, plainly.
A benchmark makes the reader measure themselves, and measurement creates the itch a trial scratches.
It is short on purpose: the download-to-read rate on a 16-page PDF is far better than on a 60-page one.
Every tactic is shippable without your product, which is exactly why people trust the chapter where it helps.
Starting points
Three openings you can paste straight in.
Step one asks what your book should teach. Here is what a good answer looks like for this template — specific enough that the outline comes back usable.
- “What a good seven-day activation rate looks like for B2B SaaS, and the four things that drag it down”
- “The onboarding email sequence we tested across 40 accounts, with the numbers”
- “How to cut time-to-first-value in a product with a heavy setup step”
Other templates
Four more shapes.
