A cover that sells at thumbnail size
Readers meet your book as a two-centimetre image in a list of forty. Genre signalling has to be instant, the title legible at that size, and the spine width calculated from your actual page count and paper stock or the print file will be rejected.

Yes. Readers browse by genre cues, and a cover that ignores them reads as unprofessional regardless of how good the design is on its own.
Yes, with a shared template so the books read as a set on a shelf while remaining individually distinguishable.
Often bought alongside this
Buying two or three together is cheaper than ordering them separately, and the work stays consistent because it never leaves the same team.
