ORDERING A BOOK COVER DESIGN FROM ALPHA ADVERTISING...
The first step: You order a book cover package from us either online or by phone. (Click here to see packages). You pay for half the package up front. This can be done with a credit card. You provide us with the Title, Subtitle (if you have one), Author Name, Summary of the book, and Size of the book. In some cases we will request part of the manuscript. We listen to your ideas.
Your project has begun. Approximately one week later you will be viewing at least two cover designs for your book.

APPROXIMATELY ONE WEEK LATER...
The second step: We contact you by e-mail or phone and give you a URL where you can go online and look at your book cover designs. Click here to see a sample of what an actual customer would see. After you review the posted samples, you let us know if you like the design as is, or if you would like us to make a change. In some cases we may have to show you a completely new design. We almost never have to do this. We do our research well and take the design very seriously. It's usually right on target the first time. Click here to see what customers are saying.
If you approve your front book cover at this stage, we're ready for the back cover and spine. If you request changes we work with you, in the following week, showing you adjusted covers until we have a final front cover you approve of.

THE FOLLOWING WEEK...
The third step: Once your front book cover design is approved, we ask that you provide us with copy you want on the back cover. This will include the "teaser" you want to give your target market, possibly an author picture and short bio, a barcode for the bookstores (this will require an ISBN number), and a publisher's logo if required. We take these elements and design your back cover and spine to fit beautifully with your front cover design. We then direct you back to the URL where you will review your finished cover, back cover, and spine. Click here to see a sample of what an actual customer would see. After you review the posted sample, you let us know if you want any changes, and your cover is finished.
Your project is complete and your cover is ready for production. We take the final payment for your cover design and ship the files to you or your printer.
