Premade Cover. As an independent author, you've likely come across this term at some point, right?
But, what exactly is a Premade Cover?
A Premade Cover is exactly what the name suggests: a pre-made book cover that you can purchase from a designer, where only the text on the cover is changed to match your book title and author name.
Premade Covers are unique, exclusive, and sold only once — meaning if you purchase a Premade Cover, no one else will be able to buy the same cover. Only you will be able to use it!
Purchasing a Premade Cover has some differences from hiring a designer for a Custom Cover, but it also comes with several advantages:
Fast delivery
One of the challenges some authors face is precisely time. A Custom Cover can take anywhere from weeks to months to complete, depending on the designer and, most importantly, their availability. Some authors schedule the service with their preferred designers months in advance due to limited openings, which can delay their publications until the final cover is ready.
By purchasing a Premade Cover, much of this issue is resolved. After all, the cover is already made; only the text needs to be changed, which is quick and easy! In just a few days — or even hours! — you’ll have your cover ready to use!
Immediate results, and easy to visualize your book
Many authors have no idea how they want the covers of their own books to look like — it’s a recurring issue in my work with Custom Covers. Often, not knowing their preferences or being indecisive is what takes the longest in creating a cover, because precisely due to not knowing what they want, the author also doesn’t know what they don’t want, and many only just have sure of this after seeing a few options.(I understand, I’m like that too, honestly!)
With a Premade Cover, you don’t have to wait to see what will come out of the designer’s mind or fill out briefing forms to specify what you want or not for the cover. You can already see all the available options in the catalog, see what fits your book’s genre, and visualize how your title would look. You can simply choose a cover… by the cover!
Lower Price
Since they are pre-finished works, only allowing text alterations, Premade Covers are generally priced slightly lower compared to Custom Covers.
But this doesn't mean the quality is inferior: Premade Covers are created with the same care and dedication as a Custom Cover, simply made from the designer only ideas instead of being designed for a specific project or client. The materials used are always of high quality, properly licensed, and free from Artificial Intelligence, as we value artistic creation by real people!
So, if you're looking for a professional-quality cover, with fast delivery, and are on a limited budget, a Premade Cover could be a great option for you!
