Is It Possible To Have A Good Ebook Cover Made For Me For less Than 20 Bucks?

12 replies
Hi Warriors,

I'm about to release a product soon and I really need an ebook cover made for me, I have photoshop and thought I could do it myself and I tried and I tried and I tried, all to no avail.

I need it done quickly,exceptionally well and without costing an arm a leg.

Just one ebook, which shouldn't even take 30 minutes for a pro to do, should not cost and arm and a leg.

Do any of you have suggestions? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I'm sure it is.

    Check out the "Warrior For Hire" section and look for "designers". Look at their portfolios, check out their feedback. Find 3 to 4 good ones and send them a PM detailing your needs, desired turnaround time and your budget.

    I'm sure you'll find someone that will be able to help you.

      If you don't find what you are looking for you can try GFX Writer (just google it for the website). I think you can get it for under $20. They market it as a cheap alternative to Photoshop. I've used it but I can't say the quality is as good as a professional. But to get something up quickly and to do it yourself it was fine. Depends on what you are looking for. Might be an alternative.

      Well I waited for your PM nearly an hour now and the wife phoned to tell me
      she is on her way home.

      I guess I'll have the bored stiff problem solved here soon!
      So, I will have to now retract my offer to create the free e-book cover.

      I Tried!

      Good Luck,
      Have a Great Day/Night!
      Michael

      PS,
      I'll have to get ready to unwrap my Birthday present now!

    I strongly recommend you to hire professional to make professional cover.
    You can find several proven outsourcing sites for that and, of course, check appropriate section here as many warriors are obviously very experienced in this area.

    Having professional made appealing cover can make huge difference in sales volume.

    There is interesting case from porn industry where main production companies spent more on cover design then on all actors wage together, so that caused their revolt and strike. But that was proven approach to better promote product on overcrowded market. Finding any similarities?
    Something to think about
