It is important to remind designers that when someone writes a book and asks to design the book cover, it is not just another book cover that will be made, but a life, a story, a reality, a lived experience. where maybe people, families and loved ones died in it and that sometimes brings deep emotions that are hard to understand.
The issue is not only about the money that will be paid, but sometimes the cover of the book you are going to make is about deep feelings that bring erased memories and deep tears represented in a simple book cover.
It is extremely important to understand that dimension. Perhaps the person who is asking you to make a book cover lives in that spiritual context.
This is different from someone who is doing a book cover for someone who will sell products, technical information, multi level marketing, or consulting etc. If someone asks or has a book cover for comedy, games, photo albums with flowers, etc. the level of emotion, expectation and depth of sensitivity is not as deep.
I would pay up to a million dollars if you find me a designer with patience, willingness to work and who goes above and beyond. Because, Great service surprises people, Great service brings customers back, Great service comes from the heart. I recommend this book for service providers "The simple truths of service by Ken Blanchard & Barbara Glandz" . It is a short book that can be read in 10 minutes. But, it can change the life of any professional .
Thank you for making my book cover, My greatest gratitude for your service. I hope to work with you again in the future. It was a good experience and I wish you the best success in your career. Thank you for your patience and for quickly understanding the vision of my book cover. Thank You. Thanks a Million.
