"Book Cover Design Brief

Title: The Fee Killer
Subtitle: How Wall Street Gets Rich Off Your Retirement — and How to Stop It
Author: By Daniel Rosenberg

Book Size: 6x9 inches (standard nonfiction trade paperback size)

Genre/Category: Nonfiction, Finance, Retirement Planning, Consumer Protection

Design Goals:
The cover should be bold, modern, and impactful—something that looks like a #1 bestseller in the financial category. It must stand out in both print and digital formats, especially as an Amazon thumbnail. The design should communicate both danger and empowerment: the danger of Wall Street’s fees draining retiree savings, and the empowerment of taking back control.

Mood and Tone:

Urgent, authoritative, and disruptive

Feels like an exposé

Professional and clean (not cartoonish or cluttered)

Should inspire trust but also provoke curiosity

Required Elements:

Prominent placement of the title: The Fee Killer (big, bold, commanding)

Subtitle beneath the title: How Wall Street Gets Rich Off Your Retirement — and How to Stop It

Author’s name at the bottom: By Daniel Rosenberg

Must look polished and professional

Visual Ideas (choose one or explore variations):

Broken Piggy Bank Concept: A shattered golden piggy bank spilling dollar bills and coins on a dark background, symbolizing fees draining retirement savings.

Predator Wall Street Concept: Ominous skyscrapers looming in the background, stylized as devouring jaws or shadows consuming money.

Cutting Chains Concept: Scissors cutting through a heavy chain made of dollar bills, symbolizing breaking free from Wall Street’s grip.

Color Preferences:

Dark, strong backgrounds (black, navy, charcoal) for authority

Bold accent colors like red, silver, or gold to make the title and imagery pop

High contrast for readability at small sizes

Typography Preferences:

Title in bold, modern sans serif (embossed or metallic effect optional)

Subtitle in clean, easy-to-read sans serif (white or light color against dark background)

Author name smaller, in white or silver, placed at the bottom

Deliverables:

Front cover design (6x9 trim size, high resolution for print and ebook)

Spine and back cover optional (if included, leave placeholder text for back blurb and barcode)

Files: Print-ready PDF, high-res JPEG/PNG, and layered source files (PSD, AI, or InDesign)" (client-provided description)
