Somebody did a study on Internet marketing and the sale of ebooks and other items. One of the things they discovered was that sales increased if you had a photo of the product, especially if it's an ebook, on the sales page. The problem is, ebooks are electronic. They aren't things that you can physically hold in your hands or see. So how do you show a photo of it on your sales page? You could have somebody design one for you at $100 a pop. What if you're selling 10 ebooks? That's $1,000 just to have covers made. Who can afford that?



Cover Factory to the rescue.

There are many cover creating software packages on the market, but most come with a pretty heavy price tag. That's what makes Cover Factory so incredible. It's dirt cheap. And while most things this cheap aren't worth spit, Cover Factory is a very professional looking package and does the same job as the higher priced models, maybe better.

The big problem with making covers for ebooks is that in order to make them look real, they have to have a 3D look to them. Unless you are an incredibly gifted artist, even with Paint Shop Pro or another graphic arts software package, this isn't easy to do. Ask anyone who's tried. It can be frustrating to say the least.

Cover Factory solves that problem. Its 3D rendering capabilities are incredible. And you have the options of many different types of looks, such as software box, spiral bound covers and a whole lot more. You can tilt the books and boxes in just about any way imaginable in order to get just that right look that you need.

But these aren't blank covers and boxes we're talking about. With Cover Factory you can either use the tools of the package itself to create your own designs and lettering or you can import images and text to paste on the cover itself. Plus, as with a real 3D software box, you can place lettering and designs not only on the front cover but also on the sides.

The software comes with a huge library of images that you can use for your covers. Many of them are quite beautiful. They can be cropped and edited in any way you like and even combined so that you can achieve some very cool effects.

Speaking of effects, you have many of them as well. You can produce books with shadows behind or in front of them. You can create a bounced lighting effect that looks like somebody is shining a lamp on the cover. You can double the image itself so that it looks like the book or box is being reflected off of a mirror.

If you're wondering if this software really brings results, an associate of mine uses it and sells hundreds of his products each month. While there is no way to tell if Cover Factory has anything to do with this, one thing is certain. It hasn't hurt.

If you're in the need for a cover producing piece of software at a bargain price, Cover Factory is the way to go.
