Thinking about a catchy name for my new ebook...

12 years ago

Maybe you could provide some idea as to what the ebook is about?
Or are you choosing between those two?

I think " Lucid Dreaming: Dream Hacker" sounds mysterious but is neither boring nor ambiguous.

Thanks

No, It's a title and a sub-title if that's what you call it.

I would need a bit more information on the subject of the book before being able to help. At the moment I can't really tell what the book is about from the title, so not sure if that is a good thing or a bad thing. Is it a guide? Is it a story?

Thanks

I don't think that your proposed title will prompt people to buy. It doesn't have enough information.

Here's an example of a title that works:

In Cold Blood: A True Account of a Multiple Murder and Its Consequences

Or this one:

The Whole Art of Fishing: Being a Collection and Improvement of All that has been Written upon this Subject

And even:

Rogue Warrior: The Explosive Autobiography of the Controversial, Death-Defying Founder of the U.S. Navy's Top Secret Counterterrorist Unit SEAL TEAM SIX.

  Thanks everyone.
  
  It's good to get other peoples opinions. It's about lucid dreaming so I thought having "lucid dreaming" in the title would be explanation enough.
  
  And it's about hacking into your dreams. That's why I used it.
  
  Maybe I'll have a rethink.

I thought of:

Lucid Dreaming: Dream Hacker

And the brand name: Underground Genius

What do you think?

The most important words you'll ever write for your ebook
will be the title and subtitle.

They will highly influence how well your ebook sells.

Therefore, it's worth investing some time and effort into
choosing a suitable title and subtitle.

I'd recommend firstly heading over to Amazon and taking
a look at the common titles and subtitles that come up for
the books on Lucid Dreaming - especially the best sellers.

Then put a slight spin on those proven formulas.

It's better to be clear and direct with your title.

Dedicated to mutual success,

Shaun

You've just gave me a great idea. Focus on control instead of getting in.

Some thing like:

: Puppet Master Of Your Dreams

Except "puppet master" has a very strong negative connotation. I think you are looking for something positive.

Now "puppy master," that's positive.

It depends on the angle you are going for... whether you are instructing people how to have lucid dreams so that they can tap into their 'inner genius' and solve day to day problems or, as I have seen promoted before, so that they can control their dreams to experience anything they want to every night, from flying to traveling (ie 'Live the Life of Your Dreams Every Night).

Then make your sales copy very clear on the benefits to buying your book.

This thread has reminded me of a dream I had last night- I dreamt I was lucid dreaming but I am not sure if I really was or whether I just dreamt I was! I would be interested in reading your book too.

The book is just a freebie. I want to teach people how to lucid dream before I sell them a book on using it for creativity.

So the book only goes into how to have your first lucid dream in the quickest time possible, and once you're inside how you can stabilize it and make it vivid.

I then just leave them with the message to keep practicing to stay in longer each time.

So it's really just how to hack in and stay in without waking themselves up.

It really isn't about control. Puppet master would be a bad idea. It could be something like:

Quick & Easy
How to have your first lucid dream
Dream Hacker

Thanks

I'm not sure your market "hacks" into much of anything, necessarily. What problem do your readers have, that your book solves for them? Be as specific as you can. The Amazon suggestion above was excellent.

Browse some forums on your topic for a while and figure out what kind of language they use. Solve a problem. Promise a benefit. Answer the question: "Why should I bother spending my valuable time reading this?"

Get clear on what's going to be fantastic in your target customer's life because she's read the information you provided. When you do, you'll be on the right track to crafting a headline that works.

Wishing you much success!

I'm not sure if I would understand what your book is about just by the title you originally chose (Lucid Dreaming: Dream Hacker).

I like the name of your brand though (Underground Genius). Go with that brand for sure.

I think the title might need to be more catchy, i.e....

"Don't Let Anyone Hack You (Or Steal Your Dreams)!:

or the more positive, something like...

Become a Dream Hacker and Realize your True Moneymaking Potential

I don't know what the exact wording should be but it should be apparent what your e-book is really about. I think "lucid" might be too fancy of a word for some people.

Oh but...in case I misunderstood what your book is about...

Then my bad. LOL I originally thought maybe from the title your book was supposed to be about interpreting dreams. In that case, disregarding what I've said above.

You know when you dream and you are actually acting it out. Well lucid dreaming is waking up your conscious mind without waking up your body so you are still in the dream but you know you are dreaming.

You can then do anything you want inside.

The title of your book is very important. Should I say that again? Reading over titles is what makes people actually stop and take interest in it. The more the title tells the person about the book the better.

Yes, hence why I'm asking for advice and not just using my own bias opinion.

I think that's an improvement. : ) The problem many people have when naming books and products (etc.) is that they choose something _they_ would like rather than something that would be compelling to their market.

Fin,
Why would I want to lucid dream? What's the coolest thing about it? Why is that cool?

One exercise that helps me when i'm writing headlines or titles is this:

I write down something basic describing what I'm talking about.
Example:
"How to lucid dream."
Then I pretend a friend is asking me:
"So? Why should I care about this?"
I write down my answer.
I ask again: "So what?"
I answer again.
I keep asking "So what?" until I get deep into the heart of why I would want to explore this topic.

When you get past the topic, past the features, past the benefits, into the core awesome reason why YOUR READER will love this new-found skill, you've found the bulls-eye. THAT is what should be in your headline.

I know what you mean, but this isn't some benefits for a sales page - it's just going to be a picture of the book as an opt-in in the sidebar.

I just want a catchy name.
