JobJenny.com needs a new book or magazine design

Business & Consulting

I'm your job search BFF and tough love expert on finding career bliss. I'm a career blogger, job search consultant and resume writer. I help people craft and execute strategies that will help them land (or create) meaningful, fulfilling jobs. I believe that it doesn't have to be boring, arduous or painful to gain career advice. That said, I deliver excellent counsel without all of the stuffiness and seriousness.

I am launching my second e-book, which will be sold directly through JobJenny.com. The e-book will be a downloadable PDF file delivered to the customer's inbox. The first ebook cover was designed to simply fit on a standard 8 1/2 x 11" printed page. I believe I need the same with this piece of art. The ebook itself will be a Word document converted to a PDF. My e-book is called Ridiculously Awesome Resume Kit or RAR Kit. I operate a successful resume writing service that is branded as the Ridiculously Awesome Resume Service. You may review that service offering at www.jobjenny.com/resume-service. (If you see the "Ridiculously Awesome Resume Service" button on my home page? Ignore it -- I don't want this cover styled after that button). This ebook is designed to teach people my formula for crafting a Ridiculously Awesome Resume - It will include my step-by-step guidance, resume samples and strategic resume advice.  Send me a note if you want a copy of my first ebook -- it will give you a feel for my tone and style (but if you read a few entries on my blog, you'll get the same flavor). Target market for this new ebook is those who feel capable of creating their own resumes, but maybe lack the direction - or- those who can't afford the hire me to actually craft a professional resume for them. I think I want the cover to read "RAR KIT" with the words "Ridiculously Awesome Resume" in between the RAR and the KIT, but I'm not sure. I'm open to creative ideas that honor the spirit of my tone/website. I also want the JobJenny logo (or maybe just the JobJenny.com in your chosen typeface) and "By Jenny Foss" incorporated on the cover. You can see what the first ebook cover looks like here: www.jobjenny.com/to-whom-it-may-concern I strongly encourage you to review my blog so you can get a feel for my style/tone/brand. Please feel free to be creative. I want personality and "grab" with this, but it has to make sense with my overall brand and tone. And no, it doesn't have to be that same vintage cartoony look as you see on the first ebook cover. Let clean. modern. fun. be the operative words.

I'd like the ebook cover itself and, if possible, a couple of thumbnail/banner images that I can use to promote the book.   Clean. Modern. Fun. Some actual book covers I like a lot are here:   http://www.amazon.com/The-100-Startup-Reinvent-Living/dp/0307951529/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1337285736&sr=8-1   http://www.amazon.com/The-Thank-Economy-Gary-Vaynerchuk/dp/B007MXAZBW/ref=sr_1_5?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1337285829&sr=1-5   http://www.amazon.com/Evil-Plans-Having-World-Domination/dp/1591843847/ref=pd_sim_b_4

Every design category has flexible pricing for all budgets. Other book or magazine starts at $299.
