Killer Covers Design Service

Before I tell you all about Killer Covers, I have a confession to make. You see, I thought I'd save myself a little money by purchasing one of those fancy software programs that allow you to design your own covers for ebooks.

I knew that I would be writing several ebooks and so I wanted to save some cash by being able to create my own ebook covers. For the price of hiring a professional to design a single cover, I could purchase a software program that would let me design as many covers as I wanted. Smart, right?

I researched all the available ecover design programs and settled on a very popular one that is heavily promoted. The landing page for this product showed all these beautiful ebook covers and convinced me that the software would do all the heavy lifting, allowing someone like me, with no real design experience or skill, to create compelling ebook covers with just a few clicks of the mouse.

I spent hours trying to create a good cover design. Right away, I was disappointed by the lack of flexibility of this software package. I couldn't get my uploaded graphics to look right and there were quite a few design limitations with the program itself. I'm not going to name this popular software package because someone with better design skills might be able to get it to work better.

Because I was having problems with uploading my own graphics, I decided simple was better. After almost an hour of fiddling back and forth, my creation was finally done. Yes, folks, the ebook cover you see to the right was the best I could do. I know it's downright ugly. Many of you may have a slightly stronger word you would like to use. It's ok - I can take it. Bring it on!

Which cover do you think is more appealing, mine or Vaughan's? It's ok - be honest - you won't hurt my feelings.

I wanted Vaughan to design a cover for a future ebook I was writing on website building. Vaughan's policy is that you pay first before you are able to give him any information on the design. I'm not normally used to this type of policy but Vaughan mentions on his site that if you aren't happy with his work, he will instantly refund your money. This guarantee along with the fact that Vaughan was recommended by a trusted source gave me the confidence to prepay for his services.

Once you pay via credit card, you are sent to a form where you describe your business, your target market, ebook title, tag line, artwork, and any other info that will help Vaughan create a mini-masterpiece for you. Within a short period of time, Vaughan will send you an email with questions he might have along with a summary of the project for you to review and approve.

Upon approval, he will start working away and, in one week or less, he will email you a link with the completed artwork. Don't be surprised if Vaughan visits your website in order to choose colors that complement your existing site design.

To save your finished artwork, you simply right-click to save all the posted images to your hard drive. That's it. Simple - quick - effective.

• Your eBook Cover in 4 different sizes for immediate use on your website (see below.)
• A medium-sized full-front view of your ebook.
• A larger full-front view of your ebook suitable for use as the first page.
• A formatted Microsoft Word ebook template with your ecover inserted as the first page.

Here's a recent cover Vaughan did for me. These are the actual sizes you will get with your ebook order.



In addition to designing ebook covers, Vaughan also provides designs for software boxes, Ezines, manuals, spiral-bound covers, coupon books, membership cards, jewel cases, and thin reports. Packages are also available that include custom order buttons, product guarantee icons and a header to match your ebook cover.

I've been extremely happy with the quality of Vaughan's work and highly recommend him. I have a lot of additional work that he will be doing exclusively in the future.
