FAQs

  • What is your turnaround time for a book cover design?

    The typical turnaround time for a book cover design is 2-4 weeks, depending on the complexity of the project and the number of revisions requested. A detailed timeline will be provided during the initial consultation.

  • What do you need from me to get started?

    To begin the project, I will need your book's title, subtitle (if applicable), author name, genre, target audience, and any specific ideas or elements you want included in the design. Additionally, if you have any reference images or inspiration, please share those as well.

  • Will I receive the original design files?

    Yes, upon project completion, you will receive all final design files in various formats (PDF, JPEG, PNG), along with a style guide. However, the original design files (such as Photoshop or Illustrator files) are typically not included unless specifically agreed upon.

  • How many revisions do you offer?

    I offer up to three rounds of revisions to the chosen design concept. Additional revisions can be accommodated for an extra fee if needed.

  • Can you help with formatting the interior of my book as well?

    While my primary focus is on cover design, I can recommend professionals who specialize in book interior formatting. If you're interested, I can help you find someone who can assist with that.

  • What if I don’t like any of the initial concepts?

    If none of the initial concepts resonate with you, I will work with you to understand your feedback and create additional concepts that align more closely with your vision. My goal is to ensure you're completely satisfied with the final design.

  • Do you work with self-published authors?

    Absolutely! I love working with self-published authors and understand the unique challenges and opportunities they face. My goal is to create a book cover that effectively markets your book and appeals to your target audience.

  • What is your payment process?

    A 50% deposit is required upfront to secure your project, with the remaining balance due upon delivery of the final files. Payments can be made via bank transfer or other mutually agreed methods.

What's included
