If someone were to come to you for a book cover design, how much would you charge?

Here are my rates:

Basic cover - a simple graphical design using free stock resources, nothing bespoke. This will get you a decent simple cover that you can use on Amazon, Smashwords or similar. This option is for people on a budget who need a cover but don’t need anything fancy. £25/$40.

Standard cover - using high-quality resources, I design a cover tailored to your story, with email consultation from you as it progresses. This will cost somewhere between £50 and £120 ($90-$200) depending on how in-depth your consultation goes and how specific you need the design to be. I will be in touch a few times during the design process to make sure you’re happy with how it’s coming along. Higher specificity in your requests means I may have to charge expenses for licensing fonts and photos, but I always hunt for bargains to keep these costs low!

Deluxe cover - this is the super bespoke option, price on request. I’ll be honest, you probably won’t need this.

To commission me, shoot an email to madeupbookcovers@gmail.com with full details of your request. I take payments through paypal only once you’ve received and are happy with the final product.
