I once read a book which purported to teach me how to become an "internet millionaire."
I read the entire book thrice.
Each time I got to the end, I wondered:
"OK so now what do I do?"

I should want to give you $20 for your book based on the title & subtitle alone.
Without any background on you, your story, or your reason for writing.
If that's NOT the case, your title & subtitle is a dud.

Hey author!
Your competition is not other books.
It's Twitter, TikTok, and Tinder.
