The difference is in the distribution
The Get It Factory content is distributed by Ingram Publisher Services.
TGIF has set ourselves apart from many other hybrid publishes with our relationship with Ingram Publisher Services. Ingram offers a built-in pathway to sales which offers visibility and credibility. Books published by The Get It Factory will appear in Ingram’s Advance catalogs, one of the primary tools used for booksellers when they choose books for their stores.
Our marketing team works tirelessly to bring awareness to our titles and authors and to sell books, not just to big names like Amazon and Barnes & Noble, but also to independent bookstores, libraries, and other specialty retailers who might be a fit for a certain title.

Formats
eBooks
Ingram distributes eBooks to over 125 partners. If there’s a place that sells eBooks, yours will be there. The Get It Factory handles the formatting and .epub files and transfers them to Ingram for distributions.
Paperback
Depending on the genre and style of your book, many paperback layouts are available. Paperback books have high royalties and low author copy costs. The Get It Factory will carry mostly paperback copies for fulfillment. We offer a number of paperback format options that work with Ingram’s distribution chains.
Hard Cover
While they don’t offer the highest royalty percentage, especially when sold to retailers, sometimes hard cover versions of books are great to offer potential customers. Much like paperbacks, Ingram offers a few different formatting options.
