What makes a great nonfiction and business cover
Nonfiction and business covers sell a promise. A big, bold title, a clear subtitle that says what the reader gets, and clean colors look expert and trustworthy.
- Make the title as big as you can. Readers scan nonfiction covers for the promise.
- Bold sans-serif fonts like Archivo Black or Montserrat look modern and confident.
- A clear subtitle does a lot of the selling.
- Clean color blocks beat busy photos.
