Why INGRAMSPARK book printers?


IngramSpark® is an award-winning independent publishing platform, offering indie authors and publishers the ability to create, manage, and globally distribute print and ebooks.


With the rise of e-readers, ebook retailers, and changing shopping patterns, it’s never been a more advantageous time to share your story in the digital marketplace! There are several self-publishing companies you can choose from when deciding to publish an ebook. While famous names like Kindle Direct Publishing, BookBaby, and Issuu might sound like the way to go, IngramSpark has so much more to offer authors. This includes the convenience of having your print and ebook in one platform, a user-friendly book-building tool, a wide distribution network and easy conversion of print book files to ebook.


Convenience
What if you have multiple ebooks you want to publish? What if you want your print books published as well? IngramSpark is the one-stop shop where you can manage multiple titles in ebook, print, or both all from one place. You don’t have to worry about creating multiple contracts with separate distributors.


Distribution
IngramSpark works with other companies to distribute your ebook worldwide. Think of IngramSpark not as a competitor with Amazon, Apple, and other retailers but as working in conjunction with them, even if they offer their own self-publishing platform. With the majority of self-publishing companies, once you publish through them, your readership is limited to that single retailer. For example, if you publish through KDP, Kindle Direct Publishing, your ebook will be available only through Amazon/Kindle. But if you publish through IngramSpark, your ebook will be available through Amazon, Barnes & Noble Nook, Apple, Kobo Plus, OverDrive, and many more US and global retailers. By choosing IngramSpark, your ebook can be available to readers on all kinds of devices in countries around the world!


Easy Conversion
For those that have already published a print book, you are not left out of ebook advantages. IngramSpark can easily convert your print book into an ebook. You can do it yourself and there are other conversion service options available, but IngramSpark can convert your book for only .60¢ per page. There’s no reason to limit your readership to only a print book. Converting your print book into an ebook opens up a whole new market and sales potential!

Print on demand (POD) publishing revolutionizes authorship by:
• Eliminating upfront inventory cost.

• Reducing financial risk, and allowing for rapid, eco-friendly distribution.
• Authors maintain full creative control, with the ability to update files instantly and sell globally without  

  managing storage or shipping.


Key benefits of POD include:
Books are only printed when an order is placed, eliminating the need for bulk printing and warehousing.
•  Authors can update content or correct errors in the digital file, ensuring future copies are current,       

   unlike traditional print runs.
Digital files can be uploaded and available for purchase within days, rather than months.
Reduces environmental waste by eliminating unsold inventory.
Books never go "out of print," allowing niche or backlist titles to remain available indefinitely.
