A Letter from the Director

Thursday, December 14, 2023

2023 was another fantastic year for IngramSpark authors. I am so proud to see what our teams have achieved in 2023, including a successful 10-year anniversary, no setup fees, and shareable links. I don’t know about you, but I’m ready to launch wholeheartedly into the new year!  

We’ve been working hard on many different improvements to the platform and are excited to continue rolling out new opportunities built with you in mind in early 2024. 

Special Thanks

Our Publishers

Above all, we want to thank you, our authors and publishers. The IngramSpark community, ever-expanding, astounds us and we give heartfelt thanks to the brave and talented indie authors and publishers. Entrusting us with your stories is an honor. Equally, I take immense pride in the IngramSpark team—a diverse, creative, and dedicated group. They tirelessly strive to enhance the experience for indie authors and publishers, making every publishing journey a success. 

IngramSpark Support

Our support team is dedicated to supporting indie authors and publishers in their self-publishing journey. Thank you to our support team and all of their efforts.  

IngramSpark Sales

Our sales team attended many writing and publishing conferences, domestic and abroad, this year. Our team had the immense privilege of meeting thousands of you in our travels to Guadalajara, London, Germany, and Las Vegas—to name a few. Our team appeared as experts on self-publishing panels at major writing conferences worldwide, engaging with indie authors, booksellers, librarians, and anyone interested in learning more about IngramSpark and how to share their story with the world. 

IngramSpark Marketing

Our marketing team is keen on expanding our engagement with you, which includes free set-up fees, free publisher education and more! These tools can help you successfully navigate your journey in self-publishing.  With the launch of our Tik Tok account, our curated IngramSpark lists, Tea with Leigh, launch of IngramID, free downloadable guide, shareable links, no setup fees, and the celebration of our 10-year anniversary, we expanded our marketing opportunities for our indie community this year.  

IngramSpark IT and Operations

You may have seen a few changes to the website this year, including the sales report that makes it easier to access your sales and returns. We want to thank our technical gurus who keep the site on the up and up 

2024 is right around the corner, and it is looking to be an amazing New Year. I look forward to seeing you again in 2024! 

 

With gratitude,
