Project Spotlight: The Wealthy Intentional Entrepreneur

The Wealthy Intentional Entrepreneur: How to Build Financial Wealth One Step at a Time

This month we wrapped up an exciting book project for Natalya Itu, an expert CPA practicing in Colorado.

We are very excited that Natalya decided to share her wealth of knowledge. As an entrepreneur and business owner herself, she provides valuable insight and inspirational tips for new and established business owners. If you live in the state of Colorado and need a fantastic CPA, contact Natalya at www.coloradobusinesscpa.com.

Our role in the development of this book included interior design, cover design, and e-book conversion. The main goal in the design was to communicate the in-depth information in a way that was easy to understand, inspiring, and not overwhelming. The book contains pull-out quotes and plenty of white space to give the readers space to breathe and time to assimilate the detailed, valuable knowledge.

Design Evolution

As usual, the cover for this book went through many rounds of revisions until we found that one that clicked.

Our team provided these as the initial concepts:

(Side note: If you’re wondering about watermarks in stock images, that’s because we purchase images after our design concepts are finalized. That way, we can explore many design concepts without wasting the author’s or publisher’s stock image budget. After the cover concept is set, we finalize all image purchases for correct licensing.)

The third design was the favorite, but both our team and the author felt that it needed more energy. Taking the tree element and playing with the energy of arrows and exponential growth (to echo wealth-building), we came up with a few variations of a new design.
