Improving Your Bookstore

 

Improving Your Bookstore—Idea #1

Design gift certificates that can be used for purchases in your bookstore. You can even do up ones that look "Christmassy" for the holidays and let your people know they are available and make great gifts!

 

Improving Your bookstore—Idea #2

Do Sunday series around best-selling books—and be sure your bookstore people know what book you’re using so they can have plenty of them on hand. (Another reason to put your lessons together several months in advance).

 

Improving Your Bookstore—Idea #3

Quote from books in your Sunday talk. Read from the book rather than just putting the quote in your notes. Be sure your bookstore people know ahead of time and have the book in stock. It can increase sales significantly. (Again, another reason to write your talks in advance).

 

Improving Your Bookstore—Idea #4

Have a section in your bookstore—perhaps a point of purchase--where books you’ve quoted or have built your series around are prominently displayed.
