What is inside, section by section — all 45 of them, in order: 1. A font substitution broke the best-seller for eleven weeks and about a hundred and forty sales. One review mentioned it, in eleven words. 2. You sell a starting point at the worst possible moment - not a design, and not something anybody will report on. 3. They open it, replace the name, reach the experience section and stop. Minute four is the whole product. 4. Six models differing mainly in how many files you have promised to keep working forever. 5. Not career advice, not a design portfolio, not passive, not repeat purchase, and not testable against a real system. 6. Columns, tables, text boxes, headers and graphics. You design for something you can never observe. 7. Three unknowns sit between your file and a hiring decision, and none of them is yours. 8. Three of four affected customers said nothing, and one apologised - about somebody else's mistake. 9. Your invented example is instruction, and a stranger will be asked about it in an interview. 10. Seven screening questions, two minutes, before any design hour is spent. 11. You can only serve a field you can write a believable invented career for. 12. Five countable commitments beat any adjective, and six words imply a guarantee. 13. Two afternoons of three-star reviews produced the entire product roadmap, and it was the same for every shop. 14. Its most valuable lines are the variant ceiling and the stop condition nobody writes. 15. The only irreversible purchase is a font licence, and the most useful was a cheap old laptop. 16. A desktop licence rarely permits distribution inside an editable file. Read it before designing. 17. Every format is a promise about software you do not own, and most buyers use two. 18. Build hours are paid once; variants are paid forever. 19. Write it before you design anything - it is a specification, and a thin one tells you something. 20. Nine steps, and the worked example comes second, before the layout. 21. Single column, contact details in the body, conventional headings, standard fonts. 22. Ninety minutes of writing took questions from about thirty-four per hundred sales to about fifteen. 23. Seven of eighteen templates changed pagination on a machine without the designer's fonts. 24. Three hours per set, none of it design, and never the word 'simply'. 25. Pre-purchase questions mean a listing gap; post-purchase ones mean a file gap. 26. Nobody buys twice. Coaches and institutions are the only repeating customer. 27. The most decorative product earned a tenth of the revenue and cost nearly two fifths of the maintenance. 28. Seventy per cent of promotional hours were going to twelve per cent of sales. 29. Bundles were forty-one per cent of revenue and nine per cent of maintenance, from an afternoon's work. 30. The unusual record here is the variant record - every file, its version, and when it was last checked. 31. Cutting seventy-two variants to twenty-four returned thirty-two hours a year and raised revenue. 32. Two hiring peaks a year, and questions peak a fortnight behind sales. 33. Build in the trough, sell at the peak, answer questions a fortnight later. Design is a sixth of the year. 34. One complaint may represent seventy silent cases. Three of four faults were found by the seller, not reported. 35. The checks that catch silent failures produce nothing when they pass, which is exactly why they get skipped. 36. Nine numbers, only two of them money, and the maintenance ratio nobody ever calculates. 37. Ninety days shows you your blank-page rate, which is the right first lesson. 38. It wrote the guide that removed a fifth of the questions. It must never write a real person's employment history. 39. Twelve worksheets for the decisions made before building anything. 40. Fourteen registers for what is cheap to set up and expensive to retrofit. 41. Twelve sheets including the plain-text export test and the worked example standards. 42. Twelve calculators and controls, every figure blank because the arithmetic is yours. 43. Twelve tools for the invisible half of this business. 44. Six review resources plus all 148 prompts collected by chapter. 45. The four rules restated, what ninety minutes of writing bought, and what to do first. Every worksheet, register and checklist is included, and every financial figure in the book is left blank on purpose — you fill them in from your own measured costs rather than someone else's guesses.
