Are You Losing Sales Because You Have a “Home Made” or Nonexistent Ebook Cover?
How many times have you perused a list of ebooks on sites like Amazon and Barnes & Noble and overlooked the ones that had “home-made looking” covers?
Or, (shock and horror!) no cover at all?
Almost all of us do it at one time or another. I can’t even begin to fathom how many sales you could be losing (and I most certainly have lost) because of this. This is because it’s easy to tell how many people bought your ebook. But, how do you quantify how many sales you missed out on because your ebook’s cover sucked or was nonexistent?
Let’s crunch some numbers.
Let’s say you sell your ebook on Amazon for $4.95. Your portion of that is 70%, or $3.47 per ebook. If you’re missing out on just 5 sales per day, that’s over $520 per month ($3.47 x 5 x 30 days/month); $6,200+/year.
In three years, that’s close to $20,000 you will have lost in possible ebook sales. Heaven forbid if you’re losing 10, 20 or 30 or more sales per day!
Can you use an extra $520+/month?
Who couldn’t!
So yeah, professional-looking ebook covers are important.
And, this ebook tells you how to make them yourself, very inexpensively, so you don’t lose another sale because your ebook doesn’t look professional.
Following is a complete Table of Contents, and here’s to your ebook publishing success!
