draftmybook for course creators

Your next course does not need a camera.

Teach what you know through an ebook. Turn lesson notes into a structured written guide, create a companion for an existing course or test a new subject before recording a video series.

New account required. No card needed for the sample.

One idea. A useful direction.

Made for the way you work

A useful lesson does not always need a video.

Recording, lighting and editing can keep a good teaching idea on hold. A written guide gives readers something they can follow at their own pace and return to when they need it. Start with a learning outcome, then build the explanation, examples and practice around it.

01

Sell a written learning product

Teach one focused skill through chapters, worked examples and written exercises. You can sell the ebook through your own storefront without producing a video course.

02

Create a course companion

Give existing students a reference they can read alongside your lessons. Supply your lesson notes and check that chapter order and terminology match your teaching.

03

Test the next subject

Create a focused guide before investing in a larger course. Use real reader feedback to decide what deserves more explanation, practice or a future video lesson.

Start with a specific reader

A better brief makes a better starting point.

Tell draftmybook who the book is for, what it should cover and what you want to leave out. Here is a brief you could adapt.

Turn my lesson notes into a beginner guide to product photography with a phone. Explain window light, simple backgrounds, framing and consistent editing. Include a practice task after each lesson and a checklist for the final shoot. Assume the reader has no studio or paid equipment.

From idea to editable files

You bring the direction. We help with the draft.

STEP 1

Start with the lesson outcome

Describe what a beginner should be able to do after reading. Add your notes, examples and a sensible teaching order.

STEP 2

Test the explanation

Review the outline and read the free first chapter. Check whether an unfamiliar reader could follow the steps without you talking them through it.

STEP 3

Complete your written course

Choose a paid completion option, select your cover and download the ebook. Edit the lessons, test the exercises and deliver it through your chosen store or course platform.

This creates a written book, not a hosted course with video lessons, quizzes or student tracking. Provide text notes or supported documents; do not assume a video link will be transcribed.

The First Client Playbook

Browse the contents and read the first chapter. See the advice, examples and structure a reader would get.

No account needed to read this example.

01 / The starting idea

A practical short guide for freelance graphic designers who have the skills but have never landed a paying client. Help the reader choose one specific client problem they can solve, build a small relevant proof project without inventing clients or testimonials, package a clearly scoped first offer, find suitable prospects and write a respectful outreach message, then run a discovery conversation and set clear project boundaries. Use concrete worked examples, useful checklists and short exercises rather than motivational filler. Be honest that getting clients takes practice and no earnings or timeline is guaranteed. Suggested title: The First Client Playbook. The reader should finish with a focused offer and a practical next action.

Questions from course creators

Can I make a course without recording video?

Yes, if the subject works as a written learning product. Create an ebook with explanations, examples and practice tasks. It is a downloadable book rather than an interactive learning platform.

Can I use notes from an existing course?

Yes. Provide lesson notes or a supported document and describe the order and audience. You must have the right to use the material. Review the output against your source lessons.

Can I bundle the ebook with my existing course?

Yes. Download the finished files and add them to your course or store using that platform. draftmybook does not automatically connect to or publish into your course platform.

What can I check before paying?

A new account can generate one free sample. For a text guide, you can read the opening chapter before paying to complete the book and download it.

What would you like to create?

Describe your reader, your topic and what makes your approach useful. Start with your free chapter sample.
