Hire the best book cover designers in Chester

If you’re an independent author, it’s important to stay prepared. For many writers, there’s so much work involved in getting the content up to scratch that the cover design is the last thing they think about. With so much to do, it can be easily overlooked and go to the back of the priority list.

Some authors DIY their own book sleeves in an effort to save money. But this is often a big mistake that can have long-term implications for book sales and your reputation. The book sleeve invites the reader to find out more about your book: it’s what convinces a reader to pick your book up in the first place. That's why many authors turn to a professional cover designer — one who has experience in your genre and the skills to create a beautiful book cover that will help to draw in your audience and make an instant first impression.

Reedsy enables you to find cover designers in Chester in a matter of minutes. We accept only the top 3% of talent onto our marketplace to help maximize your chances to finding the right designer for you.
