A professionally crafted book cover design is a key factor in how your book will be perceived. Fair or not, it's an inescapable truism in the book marketing business, and not just any graphic designer will do - for the best results you need a book cover designer that really knows the trade.
I've created hundreds of book covers, ebooks, book marketing, and promotional materials over the years for traditional publishers, print on demand, and self publishing authors. I possess the experience and expertise to create a uniquely suited book cover design for you that will capture your target market's attention.
Here are some things to consider about your book cover design:
Establish credibility: Is the book cover design visually attractive? Is it tasteful?
Incorporate the book's theme: Does the book cover design effectively convey the authors message and style? Will it appeal to the author's target market?
Designed with creativity and originality: Does the cover design create interest? Does it stand out from the crowd?

flat fee pricing
I charge a flat fee of $495.00 (US) for custom designed trade paperback book covers and $595.00 (US) for hard cover jackets, or $695.00 (US) for both. I have access to a huge royalty free image library, and use only licensed fonts so you never have to worry about copyright infringements with my book cover design.Sell Sheets
Supplemental marketing materials are an excellent way to give the presentation of your book a competitive edge in the industry. One of our most popular items is called a sell sheet. This one-page color document contains all the industry information about a specific book, including the ISBN, distribution, publication date, retail price and an image of the cover art. It clearly indicates how bookstores can order the book and often lists endorsements or excerpts as well.When we first developed the sell sheet, it was intended as a marketing tool for our distributor's sales representatives to use when pitching BookPros' titles to corporate book buyers at major retail chains (Barnes & Noble, Borders, Books-A-Million). We quickly realized that authors could benefit from using the sell sheets as well, and began providing them as a tool for them to use when pursuing book signings and other author events.
