BOOK COVER DESIGN PACKAGES

Samples of the three levels of cover design we offer

All of our book cover designs are custom, bespoke designed just for your book. No templates! All packages include working with at least one graphical element, a title and author text. For the difference between print and ebook, prices and inclusions, please scroll down to the pricing table.


Basic

Please supply one stock image or artwork for us to use in your design. Working with 1 graphical element, ‘Basic’ book cover design includes 1 approach and up to 2 drafts. Text is fairly plain and straight, so the design will be simple while still giving your book a professional touch.
