Selection of the designers of your book covers, the front and the back, is a very important step in the publishing process that may determine the success of your book in a very great extent. In Maple Publishers, a reputable book designing studio based in UK with global presence, we realise how a creative book cover is able to give a good message. Our experienced and creative designers develop fascinating covers that do not only attract the readers but also help reveal the spirit of your story. The value of the book cover can hardly be overestimated because it actually forms the first impression and attracts people to look through the stuff it contains.
A front cover of a book acts as the eye way into the story. It has to be eye catching, make one wonder, and foretell the mood and genre of the book. A strong front cover can cause a reader to feel fidgety to turn the pages and see the story that is authored by the writer. The back cover is as important, and it frequently contains the book synopsis, biography of the author, reviews, and additional artworks. The two covers in conjunction form a complete packaging contents which lure potential readers to take interest.
To pick a designer to design your book covers you need to look at a number of factors. To begin with, you would like to be sure that not only the designers are technically skilled but they also have a profound sense of visual storytelling. What you want to say in your book cover must be the message that you want to convey that touches your target audience. Our design staff here at Maple Publishers works closely with the authors in order to have a better understanding of their writing as well as the theme and the emotion involved in their writings so that the cover design becomes a direct extension of the book being written.
Expertise and the experience in designing covers of books are some of the most important qualities to look into when selecting a designer. Book cover design is a unique artwork that involves both graphic design and marketing expertise as well as literacy. Years of work with many different genres, such as fiction and non-fiction, memoirs, and academic writing, makes our designers extremely experienced. Such a wide range of knowledge helps them to design covers that are not only spectacular but also selling-wise, which attract attention of readers in both real-life bookstores and online sources.
Another important component in the design process is customization. Some authors might want their design plain or simple, whereas others want the most customized piece of art, something which would make their book distinctive in the way it is illustrated. Both options and personalization of the process by the design studio are priceless since they can offer a choice between them and adjust the process to the preference of the author. We are very proud of personalized services we offer at Maple publishers to satisfy individual needs. Our designers have a skill to work out ideas which are supplementary of content, consistent with the vision of the author and his branding.
A good working relationship is required between the author and the design team as a form of collaborative communication. It is advisable to select designers that can listen to your ideas, can be criticized and are transparent regarding the working process so that the product turned out can satisfy the customer. We create this atmosphere so that authors could also be involved in the design process, contributing to its development and following drafts. This genre of work does not only increase satisfaction but forms a kind of cover that the author is really proud of.
The other consideration that is very vital is the knowledge of industry standards and technical specifications of the designer. To achieve good quality in a printing and an online publication, book covers would require a particular size, resolution and print setup. These standards are familiar to Maple Publishers designers, so the cover of your book-both the front and the back shall be designed in a way that places them in the proper format at the various platforms of publishing, whether they are at print- on-demand services, or distributors of e-books. Such technical expertise ensures that there is a seamless transition between designing and publishing without the delays that are expensive to correct.
Awareness of the market trends and expectations of the readers is also significant when the book cover is being designed. The visual language used should also be known to the designers to attract the readership in your genre. In other words, the rules of fighting which are applicable to a thriller will look absolutely different than in a romance book or in an academic text. Our designers at Maple Publishers are those people who always carry out research and constantly adjust to the latest tendencies in the market, and they use this information and creativity as the base which helps them to create covers that do not only satisfy aesthetic requirements, the question of commercial attractivity is also raised.
Costs and schedules are convenient factors that an author will need to take into consideration when selecting book cover designers. Realistic delivery schedules and the transparency in pricing structures will assist the authors to plan their publication process effectively. Maple Publishers has competitive rates on pricing which varies according to the extent of work to be undertaken thus high quality design services can be afforded without loss of quality. We will ensure that designs are provided according to pre agreed deliverables and that the time of launch and marketing of such books can never be underestimated.
Further, the services offered by a book cover design studio may strongly affect your decision. In addition to designing the front and back covers, other services that can be provided by certain studios are the example of spine designing, typography choice, sourcing of images or creating of images, and formatting interior pages. The services given by Maple Publishers are a complete package, taking covers all areas of handling the design of a book, thus an author can enjoy a combined set and professional package to the overall look of his book.
Besides the beauty and the technical accuracy, a good book cover should have some emotional presence. The cover serves as the bridge between the creative imagination of the author and questions and curiosity of a reader. The designers in Maple Publishers put effort to portray this elusive aspect, as they make covers appealing to the soul of the story, and, compelling the reader to experience a piece of literature that he or she can never forget.
