Literary preference audience targeting

This is a 4 option poll with 50 respondents targeting Literary preference (Non Fiction). A sample of responses:

• All of them are a bit long and none are catchy. Especially for the demographic. That said, C was the worst. Too long and cluttered. I don't know that they need subtitles either, and from that I ranked them based on the main titles.
• I think the first two titles would help inspire the children more
• B. It's inspiring & encouraging. D. Let's them know that their mind is powerful. C. Very Motivational. A. Doesn't sound to confident.
• I like option A. It sounds very inspiring.
• All of these are fine. I like B the best as I feel that the language is the most appropriate and the most descriptive. C is also good. A nd D are OK. But all would be fine and are interesting.

This is a 4 option poll with 50 respondents targeting Literary preference (Non Fiction). A sample of responses:

• After carefully studying and comparing all four images of book covers for a Korean Short Stories for Beginners Book, I selected Option B as my first preference and the one that I would definitely click on to purchase for myself. I felt that that this image just jumped right out at me as having the most eye catching appeal based on the attractive design and bright colors. Option D was my second choice followed by Option C and finally Option A with all four rankings based on my own personal opinion of the relative attractiveness of each book cover image.
• I love this style of cover. I like the white with the blue and red in different objects as it reminds me of the color of the Korean flag.
• I think C is the most visually interesting, while A and D appear somewhat plain by comparison. B looks like it might be a bit too focused on classics and thus be boring.
• A. Bright and easy to read. C. Text stands out well over background. D. Text too cluttered. B. Looks too boring.
• I prefer the overall design of A which is attractive and easy to read and understand. Next preference was B with the stylized lion and bird design.

This is a 2 option poll with 50 respondents targeting Literary preference (Non Fiction). A sample of responses:

• A is clearer and has better contrast between the elements, making them stand out better.
• Reach for the stars sounds cuter for a small child because it makes me imagine a young child jumping and trying to reach the sky. Also I don’t like the photo in option B because the boy looks crazy.
• it is more colorful and the picture shows a better happy face.
• I thought B seemed a little bit more new and different than A
• less text on the cover, gets the point across pretty well of what's in the book, not that people tend to read that kinda stuff but hey.

This is a 3 option poll with 50 respondents targeting Literary preference (Non Fiction). A sample of responses:

• I prefer option C. The size of the font made it really easy to read, especially if I'm scanning shelves or online stores.
• A has an attractive design and easily gets the attention of a consumer. The cover basically speaks for itself.
• C is the only one that looks like it would actually be a quality book. B and A don't have that same look to their covers, I feel like I can trust C.
• It’s bold, easy to read and straightforward
• I chose option A as my first choice since the word “complete” and the words “fluent French” were larger and it caught my attention right away. The graphic in the corners also was attractive.

This is a 1 option poll with 15 respondents targeting Favorite book genres (Science Fiction), Gender identity (Male), Age range (45 54), and Literary preference (Fiction). A sample of responses:

• I think that I would try this book if it was available to me and I saw it on, say, a library shelf.I would warn that the, "This book is like X" recommendations are all over the place. I doubt that it actually is similar to Hitchhikers Guide AND The Martian. Those are two very different genres.
• Blanchland Blues sounds interesting and unique; I am a fan of sci-fi stories with a unique twist or setting. The plot sounds nuanced enough that it should keep me interested throughout the whole reading process.
• While the topic of this story has been done before and is not unique, it's still a good trope. And when done well can be an exciting yet relaxing read.
• Seems like a original story made up of relatable tropes with an interesting twist. I think the dynamic of the main characters and their setup is good. I would definitely give it a shot.
• I like the 4th descriptor. For me it sounds the most adventurous and the most fun to want to read and learn more about the story and what happens.

This is a 4 option poll with 50 respondents targeting Recently purchased categories (Books), Literary preference (Non Fiction), and Reading frequency (4+ Books/Month, 1 3 Books/Month). A sample of responses:

• D is the most straightforward title here, and the one least likely to have been written by ChatGPT. C is fairly inoffensive, though 'mastering' and 'expert' are a bit optimistic given the current state of the art. I never like the word 'guru' in a title - it' s overused and tired, and 'whisperer' just makes me turn away.
• I like D; it is to the point describing what the book is about. The other titles are ok except A.
• B's title is the one that resonates the most with me. As a retired programmer, the term "guru" has been part of my vocabulary for many decades, as it relates to UNIX/Linux gurus. If I were interested in learning about ChatGPT, B's title would definitely grab me. I've ranked the others based on how much their titles speak to me, in descending order.
• I like the sound of option B. It is nice and simple.
• D. clear and succinct. B. Descriptive. A. Don't care for it. Sounds like jive double talk to me. C. Is the worst of all.

This is a 4 option poll with 30 respondents targeting Age range (25 34, 18 24), Literary preference (Non Fiction), Amazon Prime member (Yes), and Reading frequency (1 3 Books/Month). A sample of responses:

• I like the color combinations and simplicity of option D. The black background and gold text is very alluring to me.
• I like the piggy and the green cover; other than that I rated based on how attractive the colors were
• I like how it almost looks like it could be a thriller or horror or something, jumped right out at me as not a self help book and I got curious
• I chose option B first because it jumped out at me those most, seems the most professionally designed, and seems the most authentic. I ranked option A second because it is an attractive enough, simple and cute design. Options C and D didn't appeal to me at all, and seem almost a little scammy looking, so I ranked them last.
• I think the black and gold color scheme hits harder for the older crowd when it comes to financial books. A lot of these people in the target market are trying to get through school or get ahead in life so the piggy with the cap might resonate with some viewers while climbing the money stairs may hit for some too. I just think they're more likely to be in school so (A) is the winner. Now they're still young so there's a good chance Ben Frank with those glasses on might still catch them and attract them as well because it was initially the first cover that drew me in. I know it from older memes. (D) is generic so the target market would have to already either be interested in the topic or the book itself.

This is a 2 option poll with 50 respondents targeting Literary preference (Fiction). A sample of responses:

• When I read option A, I grimaced and sneered up my lip and thought that I would never waste my time on this trash. Option B makes it look a little bit more interesting and I don't know all of the story in the description. It started with a review and I liked it.
• I like Option B the most because I think it describing more about the book and what to expect. It makes me want to read it more than Option A does.
• Option B gets right to the point of what the story is all about. It leaves you wanting to hear more.
• I prefer A because it focuses initially on the book being promoted. I don't want to be distracted by anonymous Amazon reviews or outdated media gossip, I want to know what this book is about!
• I liked this description first because I thought it did a better job of starting with the story before talking about the celebrity comparison.

This is a 2 option poll with 50 respondents targeting Literary preference (Non Fiction). A sample of responses:

• The descriptions are very similar, but option B has a slight edge for me.
• Both of these are really good this one seems to convey more of a sense of urgency and I think I just generally like it better it's a little more enthralling read
• I like a. A little better flow on the wording but still leaves much out to make you want to know more
• The wording is more concise and succinct in this outline. The word he is used too often though and could be replaced.
• It seems to summarize things very well and get to the point to understand the book basis.

This is a 2 option poll with 15 respondents targeting Age range (65+, 55 64, 35 44, 45 54), Literary preference (Fiction), and Favorite book genres (Thriller And Suspense). A sample of responses:

• Option A. The synopsis of option A flows smoother and reads easier than the other option. The premise is intriguing and makes you want to buy the book to see how the story ends up,
• Option A reads more smoothly to me. Without the quotes it just sounds better and is more interesting
• Choice B starts out with a more exciting beginning. Also uses for exciting words throughout using more emphasized words.
• I preferred Option B because it starts with a bang right off the start. I like that type of opening. Then it slowly unravels the rest of the story with much description and feeling. I can see the story unfold in my mind's eye. Option A is ok - it doesn't come across as riveting as Option B.
• I like both stories, both synopsis for the books, but A is more realistic and would be an easier read for the general public to handle.
