How to solve the problem of large print runs

BGP works with IngramSpark to print and distribute BGP books in small quantities.

I first met Ingram Spark in May 2019 at the IPED conference. It was a good opportunity to view their stand and products.

I was impressed by the printing and binding. I decided to put them to the test by printing my own three giftbooks with them. I was pretty happy with the results.

The file upload process was straightforward. After an internal quality check, IngramSpark let me know my book was ready to print.

I ordered only the books I needed, paying up front for print and postage. Ingram Spark will print and deliver one book only - or many. This makes it practical and economical to order a small print run..

IngramSpark shares the book’s metadata with all major booksellers. BGP books are featured on booksellers’ catalogues - ready for purchase. This includes both print and digital books, which are made available for sale through 1000s of online retailers.

As BGP books files are ‘housed’ at IngramSpark, we order only the number of books required. IngramSpark prints from their closest print facility, keeping delivery times to a minimum. I have subsequently printed further books with IngramSpark and highly recommend their services.

IngramSpark supports custom publishing. No need to print more books than you really need. No more books kept in costly storage. No more remaindered copies. Which is why I partner with IngramSpark to produce quality publications - and solve the problem of large print runs.
