History
Publisher Joel Bush founded Leverage Factory in 2005 and launched it in 2006, as a custom project publisher of coffee table-style books for large corporate clients. Soon after completing its first custom projects, the company changed its business model to focus on producing trade books and developing a distribution channel for its supplemental education products.
The company's first two titles, Be a Writer and Be a Better Writer, were written by Steve Peha, president of Teaching That Makes Sense.
