A Cover Design That Sells Your Story Before Anyone Reads a Word.
Elegant. Market-tested. Publisher-approved.
Your book deserves a cover design that commands attention, and credibility.
You poured months —maybe years— into your manuscript.
But one quick scroll on Amazon can decide your book’s fate.
Most authors lose sales not because of their writing…
…but because their book cover fails to stop the scroll, earn trust, or whisper “bestseller.”
If you’re serious about giving your book the presence it deserves, this is where it starts.

Doc Solammen
is the author of the critically-acclaimed novellas “Tangy Bonanza,” “The Nexus of Crisis,” and “Go-Devil Boogie.” He is published by Bedlam Press.
As a professional writer with three traditionally published novels in print, I wanted my first self-published book to be as polished and professional as those to which my readers are accustomed.
To that end, I was extraordinarily choosy about the freelancers to whom I entrusted the work’s cover art and layout. Ben’s stellar credentials compelled me to open a dialogue with him. I was impressed straight away with his responsiveness and focus on customer satisfaction.
Ben takes great pride in his work and quantifies success in happy and repeat customers, not dollars and cents. Impressed, I hired him—which turned out to be a perspicacious move on my part insofar as I’m ecstatic with the appearance of the new book.
In addition to completing a large and complex job on schedule, Ben cheerfully and promptly accommodated my requests to revise the one or two small details my neuroticism demanded.
Moreover, he stands behind his work to such an extent that he makes himself available to answer client questions even after a gig is formally concluded. If you’re looking for a top-tier layout artist, you cannot—CANNOT—do better than Ben.

Clarity Before Commitment
Transparency is timeless. Here’s everything you need to know before we begin your design journey.
How long does the process take?
Most cover projects are completed within 14–20 business days, depending on scope and feedback speed. You’ll receive updates at each stage so you always know where things stand.
Can I request changes once I see the design?
Absolutely. Every project includes three rounds of thoughtful revisions, ensuring the final design feels like you. My goal isn’t just satisfaction, it’s alignment with your vision.
Do I own the rights to my final cover?
Yes — you receive full commercial rights to your design, along with all final files. You can print, publish, and promote your cover anywhere, without restrictions.
Will my cover meet KDP and IngramSpark requirements?
Every file is built according to industry-standard specifications, including KDP and IngramSpark. You’ll receive properly sized, high-resolution print and ebook versions, ready to upload with no stress.
Can you help with marketing visuals too?
Yes. I can create matching promo mockups and social media graphics that extend your brand beyond the book cover. Just mention it when you fill out your project form.
What if I’m not sure what style fits my book?
That’s exactly why we start with discovery. Through conversation and visual exploration, I’ll help you find a cover concept that feels true to your story and attracts your target readers.
Do you design for all genres?
Yes — from fiction to memoirs, poetry, and business titles. Each genre has its visual language, and I design covers that honor it while keeping your book timeless and professional.
How do I get started?
Simply fill out the project request form. I’ll review your details and personally get back to you ASAP to discuss next steps and schedule your design.
