How Much Does a Cover Affect Sales?

According to agent and author Chip MacGregor, the 2nd most important factor in successful book sales is the cover, right after “high-concept book.”

Now the cover of our forthcoming novel, And Then Came Life, is approved and in production. Will it deliver sales? Will it resonate with bookstore browsers? How will this paperback book compete with thousands of other titles in the average brick-and-mortar store?
