Literary preference audience targeting

This is a 4 option poll with 50 respondents targeting Gender identity (Female), Literary preference (Non Fiction), and Number of kids (2 Kids, 3+ Kids, 1 Kid). A sample of responses:

• I think the title gives a good description of what the book will be about. I just feel adding diaper blow out is a bit off putting.
• C is short and sweet. The shorter, the better
• I think adding the word diaper makes it seem to wordy and doesn't flow as well.
• I am a sucker for alliteration so Beyond Blowouts is perfect!
• I chose C first because I don't care for the graphic description of blowouts in the others. I chose A second because the title of Beyond Blowouts speaks to the idea of having a life that is more than being a mom. I chose D third because Life After implies this cannot be done until your mom duties are over, and I don't like the word explosive in the title. I chose B last because I don't like Life After or the Maximum/Explosive part (pick one).

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

• 'Inspiring' sounds better than 'Inspirational' and the shorter subtitle makes it sound less preachy
• I think the title in option B is a little plain, so I went with the other one. I think the subheadlines - mentioning bravery, positivity and kindness is helpful.
• I prefer B because it’s less smarmy; no kid is going to want to read A and I as an adult would never buy that expecting them to.
• I like the simplicity of the the title compared to A and I also really like how it builds a boy's confidence by calling them "amazing"
• This one looks more custom made.

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

• The cover showing several friends in a car on their way to adventure better conveys the sense of friendship described in the novel's summary.
• This one is more colorful and has a more intriguing mix of imagery, which makes the book's subject and story more compelling.
• In contrast to B, this picture looks more genuine and put together. Honestly, it looks much better because B looks like the actors were too forced and the background looks out of place.
• Sees more adventerous and more of a tale than a travel book
• Option B shows how there is a real struggle and being able to juggle so many things in life.

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

• "A" is first because of the free download. "B" is last because i don't see the word 'beginners' on the cover. if it's there, the letters are too small.
• option A I would choose it first because it says free audio download on it.
• The wording was the most clear on option c. I didn't like the graphics of b as much
• B was my preference because it also noted there was an audio download which would be attractive if you are learning a new language
• I prefer A; I like that the title is all in one color and is easy to understand. C is next, B is last.

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

• I prefer this cover because it looks kid friendly and fun.
• I would pick option B because there shouldn't be a limit of 101 life skills. I think this book is so important for kids.
• I think if the aim of the book is children the image in choice A does the best job of conveying that with the children on the cover.
• I picked option A because I Like how it shows actual children on the cover.
• This one is more cartoonish and seems more geared toward children and fun so I would chose this one.

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.
• 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.
• I think the first two titles would help inspire the children more
• I like option A. It sounds very inspiring.
• B. It's inspiring & encouraging. D. Let's them know that their mind is powerful. C. Very Motivational. A. Doesn't sound to confident.

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

• 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.
• 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 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.
• 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.

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

• I thought B seemed a little bit more new and different than A
• 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.
• 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.
• A is clearer and has better contrast between the elements, making them stand out better.
• it is more colorful and the picture shows a better happy face.

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

• A has an attractive design and easily gets the attention of a consumer. The cover basically speaks for itself.
• 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.
• I prefer option C. The size of the font made it really easy to read, especially if I'm scanning shelves or online stores.
• 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

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 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.
• 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.
• 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.
• 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.
