Go through the themes and think about which template option would fit your content and branding best. Step 3: Personalize your template with your brand elements and text This is the fun part. You add in your text and brand elements. You repeat the theme all throughout the template and you do a happy dance for pulling off an awesome and aesthetically-pleasing ebook idea so effortlessly. Additional tips:
- Make sure the text is legible on your cover and other pages.You can achieve this by adding a transparent shape or layer over your text or by softening the image. You can also use contrast (dark on light, light on dark) to make the words pop more.
- Give them their next action step.What is the most important page other than your cover page? The call-to-action page. Remember to include one call to action on the last (or second last) page. Think about what you want your reader to do next.
