The title font is rather boring, but it gets the job done. The scenery, however, pays homage to America’s past with the steam engine. Railways, after all, helped build this country and make the transportation of goods a reality.
Overall, though, the cover doesn’t ask me to read the book. It doesn’t speak to me about the Uber founder or big companies such as Wal-Mart and Amazon. I would be drawn to familiar company logos and maybe a more descriptive title. “Launchpad Republic” holds no clue for me regarding the subject matter.

If I was looking at the cover without the title, I don't think I'd have guessed correctly what the book is about.

I kinda feel the same way. Business evolution and a green field just don't click for me. Or maybe the authors have other reasonsShirley Ann Riddern Labzentis wrote: ↑01 Apr 2024, 19:26 Even though the book is about businesses, I found the cover to be very boring. I think that they could have added more color to make it pop and given it a different scenario. Even if they had used office buildings or factories with some color, it would have been more pleasing to the eye.

Wow! I didn't think this way. Makes senseCristina-Ioana Toader wrote: ↑02 Apr 2024, 01:34 The cover features a classic and serene landscape painting, invoking the idyllic American countryside. The imagery of rolling hills, agriculture, and the presence of a train chugging along in the distance alludes to progress and the traversing of new frontiers. This could symbolize the journey of entrepreneurship in America—rooted in tradition but constantly moving towards innovation and the future.

They could have added something to attract a first time reader. Like an office setting or a. Though your point is still relevantSbitan Mohammad wrote: ↑02 Apr 2024, 05:29 I think the cover suits what is being discussed. As much as the book is about business, the cover represents a serene field with lush green vegetation depicting financial growth and all.
