About this study guide

Ghostwriting means writing words that someone else will publish as their own, so the real skill lies in listening as much as writing. This learning material explains how to work as a ghostwriter for coaches, CEOs and influencers. You will learn how to run discovery interviews, gather stories and opinions, and build a voice profile that captures how a client speaks and thinks. Writing sections cover LinkedIn posts, thought leadership articles, newsletters, speeches and book chapters. The material also looks at the working side: setting a clear scope, managing drafts, revisions and approvals, keeping information confidential and agreeing how credit is handled. Ethics are discussed throughout, including when ghostwriting should be disclosed. Four levels, Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced and Expert, move from single posts to long-term content for several clients, and each can be studied at your own pace.
