    You both wear such pretty clothes...maybe you should both wear book store aprons with your logo on them to keep your clothes free from book dust!!

      That's a great idea. Always nice for staff to be easily recognisable to the public.

    You should make some unique and cute signs for each category of books. Laminate them so they don’t tear and such. Would elevate it a bit. Maybe. I love the book store. You’re living my dream to be completely honest. 😂

    Totally random but have you ever considered utilizing your decor and adding a few small elements to create a scavenger hunt throughout the store? Since you've done so much rearranging and hopefully have lots of new customers coming in, it could help people get acquainted with the new layout and just a fun new way for interacting. Prize for completion could be a unique bookmark or sticker! (Just a thought from a person who loves puzzles and wants to add them to every small business lol)

    Are there those little free book libraries people have on their lawns/curbs in your town? We have a number of those where I live and people love them, especially the ones on in-town bike trails. You could use those to drop off some of the rejects to see if other people want them, so they don't get thrown away. You never know whose trash is another's treasure.

    • @bookshopbesties
      @bookshopbesties  8 месяцев назад

      Yes, we do have those around here! But we don’t throw away our books unless they’re falling apart or moldy. Any rejects get donated to local charities, but going around to little free book libraries is also a great idea!

    Fun idea: What if you offered "Loot boxes". Essentially, you could wrap a couple of sets of books in Kraft paper, label them for a specific price, and people could buy them without knowing what's inside. Say, $5 for 5 mystery books, or $10 for 10 chapter books. Then, have a wild card. Randomly selected books of different generes all in one package.

    I've been checking almost every day for the past weeks, if you uploaded a new video and then you uploaded one on my birthday!! Such a nice surprise 🥰 The video turned out really well and the bookshop has come such a long way already! Can't wait to see more of your journey, especially before and after comparisons and long montages of you organizing the books are so nice and satisfying to watch 🤗

      Darn it! My editing app kept glitching throughout so I think it messed up the audio and made everything really quiet :( I’m sorry! Luckily there’s not a ton of talking in the video but next time I’ll be sure to add subtitles, just in case!
