By Sally Delacruz


Whether people choose to buy their books at a local book shop or on the web, they often judge these products by their covers. This happens to be one of the easiest ways to judge the contents of books. This makes it vital for you to hire the top e-book cover designers for your work. The tips that follow will help you to find the best professionals for the job.

You want to look for professionals who are familiar with your niche. They are going to be skilled in rendering images that match your genre and your overall vision. You can take some time to check out the online forums or message boards that are often used by the professionals who enjoy subject matter like yours as this will allow you to network with the right people.

Some of the best artists for your work will be individuals who have already created similar cover designs and know how digital publishing works. These individuals will be able to meet any strict deadlines that you might have. They will also be able to submit their works in the proper format.

An experience professional can also help to garner more attention for your book. Artists who have worked in this industry before tend to have fans of their own. These fans will likely check out your new book which will make it easier for you to promote it. This can be a tremendous boon for writers who are working on their first digital books and do not have their own dedicated readership.

They way in which you intend to pay this professional will play a significant role in determining who you can and cannot hire. For instance, you may not be able to offer an upfront payment, but are instead willing to provide a percentage of the monies that future sales generate. This is something that you will need to discuss with various providers in advance of contracting their services. Thus, it is a good idea to establish your budget ahead of time.

Check out artist portfolios, especially for those individuals who can and will work with your budget. You will get the chance to see their artist and skill as well as their individual styles. Even though all of the artist you consider might be familiar with your chosen theme, their works can be extremely different.

Share your vision with the artists that you come across. The professionals who catch your eye should be willing to offer their own suggestions while honoring your project goals. You will be able to work with one another in order to devise a good picture for appealing to your readers and honoring your tale.

Another vital part of this process is establishing a solid contract that details what the artist will be providing, how much you will be paying and the rights that you are purchasing to the work. This ensures that there will not be legal issues concerning the cover design later down the road. Ultimately, a rock solid contract is essential for protecting both your interests and the interests of the artist that you have decided to work with.
