R stands for RespondโAnswer five key questions related to your niche, which will form the core chapters of your book.
U stands for UnpackโDevelop the introduction and conclusion, tying the book together.

๐ Scaling with Multiple Books: The TRUTH method not only helps in writing one book but also in creating a pipeline for future books and content, like newsletters and video follow-ups. Jerome encourages breaking content into smaller pieces rather than overloading one book.
