IngramSpark Discounts Bulk Orders
We always recommend authors use IngramSpark and KDP to print and distribute their books. Using IngramSpark for expanded distribution and KDP for Amazon distribution, when set up properly, allows authors to have the widest reach at the lowest cost.
IngramSpark isn't just great for expanded distribution, however. They also regularly offer great deals on printing of author copies.
And now?
IngramSpark has flat-out slashed their rates for bulk orders!
You can now cut short-run printing costs by up to 57.5%. These discounts aren't just a limited-time offer—they’re here to stay.

Tips to Know Before Placing a Bulk Order
You should always ensure the files you upload are correct and final to help prevent delays. Your interior and cover files should be created according to printer requirements to ensure the most seamless print-on-demand experience possible.
To avoid upload issues, we strongly recommend hiring experts to help create professional, print-ready files.
Before placing a bulk order, make sure you have ordered and reviewed a printed proof.
Mistakes that were easily overlooked during proofreading often stand out like a sore thumb in the printed book copy, and you don't want to find them after placing a bulk order.
