A Transcript of... Organize 07 Your Working Title |
|
Welcome to another episode of Writing Tips for Content Creators. Today we're looking at ways to become a more prolific writer by gaining some organizational skills. And no, you don't have to have been born a “neat freak” for these things to work for you! 7. Working Title. Choose a title to get you going. I always like to title the product before I even start working on it. It helps me to organize all of my ideas towards supporting the main theme of the book. That's what a title for an information product is -- it's a statement of the main theme of the book. For example, when Jimmy D. Brown wrote List PROFIT System, that title helped him to organize his thoughts, remove information that didn't belong, and add new ideas as he worked on the outline. He structured that course so that everything he shared would work towards showing the reader how to profit from their online newsletter (Aka: ezine) You can also use the TITLE to help you create your actual chapter headings. For example: If you are writing an info product on becoming a better golfer, you might title it "How to Become a Great Golfer." Your organization for the book might include chapters such as... Great Golfers aren't afraid to take risks. Great Golfers develop their own unique style. Great Golfers invest in their game. Great Golfers blah blah blah The TITLE of your book, in addition to helping you stay focused towards the theme, can also help you to organize the subheadings / sections of the book by incorporating it into the actual chapter titles themselves. |
