IngramSpark Reduces Author Royalties - Disappointing Update Mandi Lynn - Stone Ridge Books 2023-09-03 | IngramSpark Reduces Author Royalties - Disappointing Update // This past week IngramSpark made the announcement that they are forcing authors to have a wholesale discount of 40% when it was previously 30%. For self-published authors who use IngramSpark to distribute their books, this could mean a huge reduction in royalty rates, and force authors to increase the price of their books if they want to maintain their current royalty rates. I wanted to use this video to point out just how much money authors could lose, and why I'm so disappointed in IngramSpark's response to the wholesale discount issue.Links mentioned in this video:My nightmare experience, why I removed my books from IngramSpark: youtu.be/RDRryxTX30MIngramSparks playlist: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZpcZ9u8pb_rPwJrHVc3yMiusRwwCZmZHWatch Emily Instagram reel and her take: instagram.com/p/CwnWhcCr4pO→Book Cover Design Course Waitlist: bit.ly/3EqXygh→Book Formatting Course (print & ebook formatting): bit.ly/formattingcourse→Shop my store, Stone Right Stickers: stoneridgestickers.com→Newsletter: http://bit.ly/2ozIoRx→Hiking YouTube Channel: bit.ly/3gX1PvNMY SERVICES - - - - - - - - - - →Cover Design & Book Formatting: http://bit.ly/2I3tCvAPLANNERS - - - - - - - - - - →My Writing Planner: amzn.to/3EIi0tS→My Novel Outline Planner: amzn.to/3DQMtVJ→My Book Launch Planner: amzn.to/3HMrbujNON-FICTION BOOKS - - - - - - - - - - →How Your Book Sells Itself: amzn.to/2NRwufz→Grow Your Author Platform: amzn.to/38vELxB→Book Sales That Multiply: amzn.to/2sNdqb1→Secrets to Selling Books on Social Media: amzn.to/38GMYBs→Plan a Profitable Book Launch: amzn.to/3jFaHYOFICTION BOOKS - - - - - - - - - - →Meet Me at the Summit: amzn.to/3zJfdLJ→Let the Rubble Fall: amzn.to/3UgMxDx→Essence: amzn.to/2Rmv6CS→I am Mercy: amzn.to/36bg73J→She's Not Here: amzn.to/30RDy0W→Mr. Moon's Big Move: amzn.to/3n8JZtEFIND ME ONLINE- - - - - - - - - - Social Media: @mandilynnwrites→Stone Ridge Stickers: instagram.com/stoneridgestickers→The Book Launch Planner: instagram.com/thebooklaunchplannerMY FAVORITE TOOLS- - - - - - - - - - →Find KDP keywords and categories, PublisherRocket: mandilynnwrites--rocket.thrivecart.com/publisher-rocket→eBook Formatting, Kotobee Author: https://www.kotobee.com?aff=ae92e→Social media graphics, Canva: http://partner.canva.com/XxNvK5→Music in videos, Epidemic Sound: epidemicsound.com/referral/fpblic→Email software, ConvertKit: https://convertkit.com?lmref=UwP7aQMandi Lynn published her first novel when she was seventeen.
