Think writing a book means months of isolation, expensive ghostwriters, or waiting for a publisher to notice you?

Think again.

If you can talk, you can write a book. And if you can teach on video, you can become an Amazon-published author in just 90 days—without typing a single chapter from scratch.

Let’s break it down.

1. Create 50 Videos That Answer Common Questions

Start by asking:
“What does my audience Google when they’re stuck?”

Write down the top 50 questions you get asked in your niche.
Record short talking-head videos (2–5 minutes) answering each one.

Why this matters:
You’re creating:

• Educational content
• Evergreen video marketing
• Raw material for your book

One session. Endless assets.

2. Transcribe → Blog → Book

Here’s the magic workflow:

• Transcribe your videos using Descript or CapCut Pro
• Clean up the transcript
• Publish each one as a blog post
• Copy/paste all blog posts into a Google Doc
• Format for ePub and upload to kdp.com (Kindle Direct Publishing)

Just like that, you’re now a published author on Amazon.

No ghostwriter. No publishing deal. Just smart systems.

3. Hack Amazon’s Audience with Smart Lead Magnets

This is where the visibility → email list magic happens.

On the first page of your book, add:

• “Free bonus gift—grab it here [link]”
• Send them to your freebie landing page
• Collect their email before they even buy the book

Amazon’s Look Inside feature makes this a lead generation machine.
They preview the book, click the gift link, and land in your CRM.

Why This Works

• You’re seen as an authority
• You rank on Amazon and Google
• You generate leads without ads
• You can say, “Author of [Book Title]” on your speaker bio, podcast intros, and LinkedIn headline

Publishing a book isn’t about prestige—it’s about positioning.
You don’t need to wait for permission to lead.
