The Breakdown

The Essentials Cover Design Package

As the old saying goes, sometimes less is more. Our Essentials Cover Design Package provides who are looking for a simple yet beautiful design that is easy on the eyes. In this package, our team will design your cover with standard elements such as one stock image, legible fonts, italics, bold, and underlined text, and text boxes for the back cover.

We will send three samples for your review and approval with one round of editing included. If you would like to add more design elements to your book cover, such as a shadow effect or multiple layers of images, please talk to our publishing consultant about upgrading to our Premium or Elite package options.

Interior Design & Layout

Our publishing team will work with you to pick a layout from our template bank and format the manuscript to meet your book’s requirements. You receive three samples of layouts for your approval after which the final production begins - two rounds and a final print-ready PDF file.
