That sounds like a great focus area! Let’s start by exploring the foundational aspects of your methodology:
### Foundational Questions
1. **Core Principles**: What are the core principles you believe every software company should follow when implementing authentication and authorization?
2. **Common Pitfalls**: What are the most common mistakes or oversights you’ve seen companies make in this area?
3. **Security First**: How do you prioritize security without compromising user experience? Do you have a guiding philosophy or process for balancing these two?
4. **Industry Standards**: Which industry standards (e.g., OAuth, SAML, JWT) do you consider essential? How do you decide which ones to use or recommend to clients?
### Process-Oriented Questions
1. **Assessment**: When you first engage with a client, how do you assess their current authentication and authorization setup? What key factors do you evaluate?
2. **Implementation Steps**: What are the high-level steps you follow to implement a secure and scalable authentication system? Can these be broken down into phases or stages?
3. **Customization**: How do you tailor your approach to different types of companies, whether they are startups, mid-sized companies, or large enterprises?
4. **Tools and Technologies**: What specific tools, libraries, or technologies do you prefer for different stages of the process (e.g., identity management, access control, monitoring)?
### Methodology Differentiators
1. **Unique Approach**: What sets your methodology apart from others in the industry? Do you have a specific framework, technique, or tool that you’ve developed or refined?
2. **Client Collaboration**: How do you work with clients throughout the process? What strategies do you use to ensure that your solutions align with their business goals and technical needs?
3. **Adaptability**: How does your methodology adapt to the ever-changing landscape of security threats and compliance requirements?
4. **Education and Empowerment**: How do you educate and empower your clients to maintain and evolve their authentication and authorization systems after your engagement ends?
### Results and Outcomes
1. **Success Metrics**: How do you measure the success of your authentication and authorization implementations? What metrics or KPIs do you track?
2. **Case Studies**: Do you have any success stories or case studies that illustrate the impact of your methodology? What were the key challenges, solutions, and outcomes?
3. **Long-Term Maintenance**: What do you recommend for ongoing maintenance and security updates? How do you ensure that your clients stay protected over time?
These questions should help you start to form a comprehensive methodology that you can later refine and expand into your book and consulting work.

1. Who is the book for?
List of all the things that frustrate them
List of all the questions they have asked
List of their hopes, drams, wishes outcomes, desires
List of all the things that have frustrated them in the past
Key sections:
Intro in the opening of the book, sell the reader that they should finish the book.
What are they going to get from the book?
What problems is it going to solve?
What questions is it going to answer?
What methodology is it going to reveal?
Bonuses for the end of the book (maybe)?
Distruption
3-4 chapters that disrupt people about how they are approaching their problem wrong.
e.g. Your best thinking for 5 years ago is your baggage today.
e.g. your entrepenural journey is predictable and there are certain steps you can take along the way.
Insights
5 or 6 key High level ideas, sharing the new ways of thinking
High level ideas, new frameworks, new ways of thinking of things.
At the end of the insights section add a call to action such as a scorecard. Help them benchmark how far along the path they are.
The CTA also helps you turn them into a warm lead.
Methodology
This should be completely unique to you. How to achieve the result.
Share enough that they can go directionally correct and see that you know what you are talking about.
They can feel comfortable that they can reach out to you to get further details, or use your company to get solutions
Objection Handling
Address all the reasons people would not adopt your methodology.
People want it to be easier, but they'll have to do something for the result.
You want to handle the objections that might come up.
Second CTA, give them exactly what you want them to do in order to get started on the methodology.
Leave people on an inspirational high
Talk about the big picture of getting this done.
What is the real reason that you want people to act?
What is on the other side of the pain?
What is on the otherside of commitment and discipline?
