Print-on-demand is a process for printing books (and other products) with little to no waste or upfront cost. Instead of printing thousands of copies of your book, print-on-demand can produce a single book at a time. Inventory is a thing of the past.
Lulu is one of the best print-on-demand companies. Lulu specializes in print-on-demand books and calendars, making it easy for authors, creators, and businesses to automate printing and shipping while minimizing upfront costs.
Print-on-demand (“POD”) allows creators to avoid large, risky, and costly minimum quantity orders by leveraging digital printing to produce books, textbooks, manuals, yearbooks, magazines, and other printed goods.
Lulu is built on a free-to-use, print-on-demand API, enabling the sale, printing, and fulfillment of books on any platform. We offer free integrations with ecommerce services like Shopify, Wix, and WooCommerce, as well as the option to directly connect to the print API.
You’ll also have the option to sell on Lulu’s Bookstore and use our global distribution service to list your book on retail sites like Amazon.
Lulu's Order Import Tool is a free service found in your Lulu account to place multiple orders at once. Simply upload a CSV with your customer’s shipping and order information and we’ll print and dropship your books to readers globally.
