Design a book cover that inspires christian leaders to dream and execute without fear

Jeff Meyer

I am encouraging Ministry Leaders to dream and execute.
My mission is to spark unsettled leaders.

I am publishing a book titled “Fear Not. Dream BIG & Execute: Inspiring Lessons for Christian Leaders” The book cover including the back and the spine needs to be bold and simple, something that will pop in Amazon’s Kindle store as a thumbnail as well as on the bookshelf. The book will be 5.5 X 8.25. And I am estimating the spine will be .72” I will also want 3D designs that I can use in marketing the book. For use in Kindle as well.

The book is a collection of 72 inspiring lessons divided into two parts. Part 1 is a collection of 34 “Dream Spark” lessons that encourage Christian leaders to dream, to envision a bold future in which their unique gifts and leadership is playing a significant part. Part 2 is a collection of 38 “Execution Strategies” that give practical insights to leaders on how to be more productive and focused in pursuing their dreams.

Here are a few book covers that I am drawn to.

The cover should make the reader feel that they are uniquely designed to contribute and add value to the world. They should feel empowered to cast aside life-long hesitancies to dream BIG. They should also feel emboldened to rid themselves of the victim mentality that so many ministry leaders echo. They can own their days, weeks, season, and years!! The world needs them to.

It is important that the book pops off the shelf. They should want to pick up the book and refer to it often. It is more important that the book sells than that it looks pretty. Simple, clean, and bold. Our audience has book shelves full of books. Many of these books do not get put into practice. This book must be practiced!!

It’s very important that this book design is interesting, captivating, empowering, encouraging. That is catches the eye and engages them fully. I need for your book cover to stick out. It is important that it is remarkable. Please push yourself to make this a stand-out work.

I am open to considering different color palettes, but I do love a crisp and bright orange as it exudes hope.

I do not have an image in mind. A simple image that evokes curiosity and confidence would seem most appropriate.

I will need space for the ISBN and a space for a high-profile testimonial on the back page.
