Investing Book
Publishing investment book.
We wrote this book:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1118008855/ref
Now we are writing another one on dividend stocks. You get to design the cover!
What we want:
Title of book *undecided* so just use "Total Yield" by Mebane Faber
A cover that is:
unique
simple
stands out
conforms to replication on eBook and print book
Idea #1: Be creative and design your own
Ideas #2: The theme is the 5 Blind Men and the Elephant:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blind_…n_elephant
We want a cover with:
-5 men with blindfolds on
-The men wearing suits
-Instead of an elephant, the men touching a US dollar bill, or a dollar sign
- the five "bubbles" (what they think the dollar is) should say: Dividends, Buybacks, Reinvestment, M&A, Debt Paydown
Idea #3: Five streams flowing into a river
Streams may have dollar bills/signs in them, maybe labeled with the 5 titles like above....
All of this has to fit on a book cover, so do your best!
