Your book cover is the first thing your customers will see when browsing through the Amazon page. This is why creating an awesome book cover will make a huge difference to your KDP sales.

In this piece, I’ll dive into the essentials of creating a great book cover as well as when to know its time to outsource one.

The Dilemma of DIY Book Covers

One of the core issues plaguing many KDP authors is the decision to design their book covers themselves. While this choice can be motivated by creative control and cost savings, it often leads to less-than-ideal results.

It’s essential to understand that book cover design is a skill that professionals spend years honing.

The Myth of Expensive Cover Design

One of the primary reasons authors opt for DIY book covers is the misconception that professional cover design services are prohibitively expensive. However, this is far from the truth.

Quality cover design professionals exist within reasonable budgets, and the investment is well worth it for the potential boost in book sales.
