About Us​

Everyone likes an underdog story. Show me a person who doesn’t love Cool Runnings and I’ll show you a liar. But while comparisons to Jamaican bobsled teams may be tenuous, damonza.com did start out similarly modest and unassuming. Founded by Damon Freeman in 2012 as nothing more than a side project, Damonza has since grown into a trailblazer in book cover design, formatting and marketing. Having built an incredibly talented and passionate team, Damonza has produced thousands of book covers for a multitude of authors since its foundation, including many New York Times and USA Today bestsellers.

At Damonza cover design is more than just our job; it’s what gets us out of bed in the morning. To us there’s no better feeling than turning an author’s dream into reality. We love what we do, and you’re sure to love it too!

Damon Freeman

FOUNDER AND CEO

After spending 18 years in the design and advertising industries, and having launched several successful businesses during that period, Damon Freeman began to dabble in book cover design part-time in 2011. Damon’s entrance into the industry fortuitously coincided with the explosion of self-publishing, and by 2012 this side project had turned into a thriving business. After initially doing his best to hold down a full time job and simultaneously run Damonza, Damon eventually found out that he disappointingly wasn’t a cyborg that could run 24 hours a day without sleeping, and decided to concentrate on his new venture full time. After finding some amazing designers that had a similarly deep passion for cover design, Damon has since taken on more of a general leadership role in the business, ensuring the firm’s exacting design standards continue to be upheld.

Benjamin Carrancho


Benjamin’s design and marketing career began in 2000, and before joining Damonza he’d been involved in the development of three very successful businesses in the field. Since answering Damon’s call in 2012 Benjamin has become an absolutely invaluable member of the team, and is now responsible for the delivery of everything that happens inside the book. His creative talent combined with his eye for detail ensure that every book that Damonza is involved with has the greatest possible chance of success. Just don’t forget us little people when you make it big.

Thank you for your great work. My print and digital book definitely look professional and the artwork matches the content perfectly. You gave my book a memorable and compelling feeling. I will soon come to you with new projects.

After a ton of research, I chose Damonza to design the cover for my nonfiction book. As well, I hired them to do the interior formatting. First off, and most importantly, they did a killer job on both. Added bonus, they were true to their word, they met or exceeded every deadline they promised, and they responded lightning fast to all questions or concerns I had throughout the process. I highly (HIGHLY!) recommend Damonza to you Indie authors out there. Good people are hard to find. These guys are the good guys!

Pleasing results produced professionally. Damon Freeman’s team created a fantastic cover that captured the spirit of my memoir; designed a beautiful, easy-to-read interior layout; worked wonderfully with some awful photos I really had to have in the book; dealt patiently with a first-time author; and produced results on time as promised with revisions delivered next day. I’ll be working with them again on my next project. Bravo, Damonza.com.

Your attitude towards pleasing the customer is very appreciated. You are upbeat, kind, a very fast worker, and a pleasure to work with. I’m going to be happy to sing your praises to others in my writer’s group. So a big thanks to you.

Thank you so much for all of your hard work. You have made the process of getting my novel ready for publication smooth, simple, exciting and enjoyable. Everything was easy for me, and you both answered my many questions quickly, concisely, and clearly. I am so happy that I discovered Damonza and ended up working with you two. Your work is wonderful, and you are both professional, courteous and helpful. Thank you so much for all of your efforts on my behalf, you made what could have been an intimidating and complicated process into a pleasure.

The Damonza team is BRILLIANT. Naturally their design work is incredible, but above all it’s their excellent communication that makes all the difference. Chrissy was an absolute pleasure to work with. I am absolutely thrilled with their work and cannot recommend them highly enough.
AXEL CRUISEAuthor
I’ve had nine traditionally published book, and I was a bit worried about the indie-publishing process, but Damonza eliminated any concerns I had from day-one. The manuscript formatting was handled with supreme professionalism and patience, and the cover design left me speechless. I’ve never been so delirious about a book cover in my entire career. These folks know how to do their jobs!
ROBIN MAXWELLAuthor
The folks at Damonza are amazing. I am finishing my 2nd book cover and internal formatting with them. They nailed it on the cover each time. For the 2nd book, I have continued to pester them with minor changes and they have been nothing but responsive and kind. I cannot recommend them enough.
Kevin O'ConnorAuthor
I use Damonza for all of my covers and have been thrilled with the results. (And the sales) If you are looking for a professional cover that will attract readers and put you on par with the best covers in the business, look no further.
