-
Which book cover is more appealing?
This is a 2 option poll with 100 respondents targeting Gender identity (Female) and Literary preference (Fiction). A sample of responses:
- I think B looks more enticing. A looks a little odd with the woman partially in the picture. I think for the audience that would read this book, only the guy on the cover would be best.
- I like that this one shows both the "he" and the "she" that is mentioned
- I was going to say B but then I saw the tagline in relation to the photo, so A works really well.
- Option A has more details about the book then B. The girl in the picture is a good touch.
- the woman in his shirt holding a gun is very intriguing
-
Which of these book descriptions makes you want to buy the book?
This is a 2 option poll with 50 respondents targeting Literary preference (Fiction). A sample of responses:
- I think option A got straight to the point and hooked me in as a I read the introduction as well. Option B seemed a bit too long for me and as a result I thought option A was the better option.
- I definitely prefer the version written from the characters perspective. It shows their personality and gives it a personal feel which makes you feel more connected to the story more quickly.
- I chose option A because the characters are more defined to help get a better sense of who they are. I feel this option was also easier to read and flowed really well.
- Option B seems more complete. I like the extended breakdown of the synopsis. I would be more interested in reading a book based off this one then option a
- I think B has too many details and is somewhat repetitive.
-
Which of these book descriptions makes you want to buy the book?
This is a 2 option poll with 50 respondents targeting Literary preference (Fiction). A sample of responses:
- Love the teaser just enough to get me hooked
- I prefer option B. I think it is more descriptive and it gives you the general storyline without giving away too much. I'm not a huge fan of option A as I think it's repetitive.
- Option B is a better synopsis. It’s more complete it’s more interesting. The only criticism I have is in the very first paragraph when it says Mike is a nice guy but he’s having anything but nice thoughts my first thought that this was like a crime fiction novel you might want to think about changing that line
- Option A makes me not want to read it at all just by the way it is written. Mel sounds like she doesn’t care about mikes feelings at all and it just rubs me the wrong way. Option B I would be most likely to read because it sounds more like your BFF romance type where they realize they’re meant to be after all.
- Option B gives the suspense at the end making it want to know more of what happened to Melanie and Mike.
-
Which book would you buy?
This is a 2 option poll with 50 respondents targeting Literary preference (Non Fiction). A sample of responses:
- I prefer Option B - it's more concise and it still conveys the same meaning (the idea of being successful).
- I chose Option A. The title "Epic" is already really bold and aggressive, promising a lot with its very name. I prefer to keep the subtitle at least something realistic, like focusing on planning and achieving goals, which is a realistic project for readers, and something that sounds somewhat concrete and attainable. Talking about becoming unstoppable, like in B, is just over the top and does not sound viable or realistic at all, which makes the book title sound like it's overpromising, especially with the name "Epic" already in the title.
- Option A explains what's in the book basically in my opinion, the plan, achieving the plan and enjoy the journey. I would not have to open the book or read a more in-depth description as its all there in the title. Option B says how to become unstoppable I would actually have to open the book and look at it first or read a more in-depth description.
- After carefully studying the titles and descriptions for both books referenced above I selected Option A over Option B as my preference and the one that would make me want to purchase this book. The description in Option A clearly outlines what the book is about and it makes me curious about what I can learn from it.
- The second one is much too vague
-
Which book would you buy? Why do you prefer that book?
This is a 2 option poll with 50 respondents targeting Age range (55 64, 45 54, 35 44), Amazon Prime membership (Yes), and Literary preference (Non Fiction). A sample of responses:
- I like option A because the blue print background is not only more visually pleasing, but it also conveys a bit about the book in that it will help you to build out your idea for your messaging.
- Thought Leader Launch just doesn't roll of your tongue. YOUR MILLION DOLLAR MESSAGE really captures my attention.
- I much preferred Option A as it drove home the main outcome of the book itself. I also like that it gave a blueprint and made me feel a path to achieving success was in those pages. I actually found Option A to be a bit confusing and not very catchy.
- Thisnone just sounds more attention grabbing. Also the color scheme sticks out more on a shelf
- I prefer this option because of the color scheme of the book; I like the blue. I also like the name more because it seems more focused on business, while the alternative seems a bit disjointed to me.
-
Which book title would you rather read and why?
This is a 2 option poll with 50 respondents targeting Age range (55 64, 45 54, 35 44) and Literary preference (Non Fiction). A sample of responses:
- I actually like the other title better but people nowdays are so superficial they woudn't take the time to understand what that title really means
- A million dollars generally triggers people to look at this first
- I do not care for the one that talks about a million dollars - that's just too presumptuous - I do like the one that mentions turning words into wealth - that sounds more sophisticated.
- I like that is says it is a million dollar investment
- I think B is more inspiring and will help more people if that title is used
-
Which book title would you rather read and why?
This is a 2 option poll with 50 respondents targeting Literary preference (Non Fiction). A sample of responses:
- Marketing Fastrack has a catchier ring to it than the other one. It just sounds better. WAY better. It's no contest between the two.
- This description is more understandable and relatable to me. The language clearly says what it's about without having to guess based on unclear statements.
- Chose A because it tells me more about the book
- I like the shorter, more concise title. It is short and to the point and would make me curious. I would be more likely to grab this book to learn more.
- I prefer this one as it is short, to the point and makes you wonder about the book.
-
Based on the book description, which would more likely lead you to "Look Inside" or buy?
This is a 2 option poll with 50 respondents targeting Literary preference (Non Fiction). A sample of responses:
- I like how this text is straight to the point. It tells you what the book is about and doesn't start with a question, which seems a bit unprofessional to me.
- I like this short condesnse version. I know what the book is about with this descrption
- the first sentence does it for me
- It appears to be more succinct.
- This description appeals to me more. It seems to be broken down and explained in a more concise way.
-
Which book cover would you choose and why?
This is a 4 option poll with 100 respondents targeting Amazon Prime membership (Yes), Reading frequency (1 3), and Literary preference (Fiction). A sample of responses:
- I prefer C because of the man standing with a crowbar. It's a really good picture and grabs my interest. I didn't like the other choices because they look tacky and I have seen them before on a lot of other ebooks. It doesn't stand out at all.
- D looks the most intriguing then A then B then C
- easier to read the font and text
- Red is my favorite color so A is the best to me. B is second because the blue also works well. C looks like a movie poster.
- I love the background design and the blue color so this one seems to go the best with the title.
-
Based solely on the title, which of these books would be most likely to capture your curiosity?
This is a 2 option poll with 50 respondents targeting Literary preference (Fiction). A sample of responses:
- I like the title better, due to its shorter, catchier nature.
- I would love to see an America with no white people.
- I would be drawn in and want to know what it's about and how it turns out
- Gives you a better idea of what the premise of the book is.
- More sensational so probably more interesting, even though it's clearly the same topic.
