1. Cover and copyright
2. HTML TOC I include only levels 1 (chapter name) and levels 2 (subchapters) to reduce the length of the TOC. 3. Introduction (Then SRL) Here I explain that "in chapter 1 you will see ... (levels 3). In chapter 2 you will see ... (levels 3) etc. Including internal links to the levels 3. At the same time I use the introduction as a "sales letter" for the ebook that will be surely included in Amazon Sample 4. Chapters
5. Thank you page Conclusion/What's next: My following product in the funnel. 6. End Notes
7. About me
8. About my other ebooks With links to Amazon products pages. I make (reasonably) reference to them in this ebook 9. About the support from mom, life partner, business partners
10. Legal advice and terms & conditions
With the TOC, prospect will know if I cover what he/she is looking for. In Introduction, to which extend. So I will do with peremptory Amazon rule.
Feedback from professional publishers is very welcome. Thanks. |
