The One-Hour Mini-Book Method: The Audio Mini-Course

The One-Hour Mini-Book Method: The Audio Mini-Course

You Don’t Need to Write a Book. You Can Speak One.

A simple audio course that shows coaches and consultants how to create a powerful authority-building business asset from one recording.

If you’re a coach, consultant, or service-based business owner, you already know this:

Having a book instantly changes how people see you.

• It builds credibility.
• It positions you as an authority.
• It opens doors that aren’t available otherwise.

And yet, most people never get a book done.

Not because they don’t have ideas — but because they believe writing a book has to be long, complicated, and exhausting. This audio course shows you a different way.

The core idea

You don’t need to write a book.

You can speak one.

In this course, I walk you through a simple, realistic process for turning a single recording — a talk, class, workshop, or audio series — into a short, professional book that works as a long-term business asset.

This is the exact approach I’ve used to create several of my own nonfiction books.

Inside the course, you’ll learn:

• Why short books often outperform long books for authority-building
• What kind of recording makes the best foundation for a book
• How one 60–90 minute recording can become a complete mini-book
• How tools like ChatGPT can act as an editorial assistant
• How a book builds trust, credibility, and clients over time

This is not about becoming a writer. It’s about creating something that speaks for you when you’re not in the room.

Why this works as a business asset

A short book:

• is easy for people to read and share
• builds “know, like, and trust” quickly
• positions you as an expert without hype
• gives your business a clear foundation

This course is for you if:

• You’re a coach, consultant or service provider
• You want to build authority without creating more content
• You already speak, teach, or explain your ideas out loud
• You want a book that supports your business long-term

This course is not for you if:

• You want to write a long memoir or academic book
• You’re looking for a complicated publishing system
• You want perfection before you begin

About me

I’m Mary Schiller. I’ve been publishing short nonfiction books for years, and those books have played a major role in building my business. They’ve helped establish my credibility, attract clients, and open doors I didn’t even know existed at the time. This course distills that experience into a simple, repeatable method you can use, too.
