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)
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. 😂
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.
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!
I admire your restraint, Clio and Carla. If it were me, I'd be hiding in a corner somewhere in the shop, reading a book, while my partner did all the work! I'm guessing there may be time for that once everything is the way you want it and business is BOOMING. Please keep in mind that a small minority of your customers may be afraid of doggies, as I'm in that small minority. Your doggos are just adorable and very well trained (kudos to you), but please be ready to run interference as needed, just in case. I know you're aware of this but I just wanted to put it in writing. Luv you both so much!
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 🤗
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 absolutely loved this video. It was so relaxing and calming, great editing, loved all the camera angles. I especially loved how you opened the video with the dogs waking you up and showing your mornings. It was so cinematic m, I felt like I was watching a movie 😊
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!
Hi 🙂 📚📚📚📚 You have made a wonderful video showing your day. I love the look of your bookshop. Very welcoming. It looks as though you work hard but have fun as well.
Thank you for your input! I was having some major audio issues with this one, sorry about that. Subtitles is a great idea, I’ll see if I can still add them! If not, all future videos will have them for sure!
We were planning on it and we may still but the books are so backordered, we won’t have the books by launch day, so we’re not sure if people would still be interested!
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.
Also a great merch idea!
That's such a fun idea!
I would put the yellow chairs with the blue table and the blue chairs with the yellow table. 🙂

Seasonal scavenger hunts is an AWESOME idea!

Clio, that blue dress is soooo cute! And it looks super pretty on you. Loved seeing this, it makes me want to read ♥

Wow I hadn't realised how much more open the place was. It's so much nicer!
Every time I see a new video on your page I get so excited!!! You have made that place so lovely and you both are just so fun!!

So fun to watch. Thanks for sharing! The bookshop is looking great. Looking forward to BSB after dark! 🥰
The shop is looking so great! I can’t believe this is the same shop I visit every year. Can’t wait to make it back up there and stop by!
Loved this video, the gentle nature of your day. The book shop is looking great!
random recommendations from RUclips can be good who knew?
Enjoy seeing the journey. Thank you.
It's so exciting
So nice to share a day with you!❤ Thank you and all the best❤
I don't know if it's just my computer but I can't hear anything in this video. :( Ads played loud and clear though.
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!
No worries, I can probably watch with head phones and hear it better too. Love your guys' video and work on the store
Thank you for taking us with you! Loving your journey!
If you swithced up the chairs for outside tables, and placed blue ones at the yellow table and vice versa, would be cool) Couldn't help suggesting)
You gals are so cute and did such an amazing job at the bookstore!
Hi 🙂
📚📚📚📚 You have made a wonderful video showing your day. I love the look of your bookshop. Very welcoming. It looks as though you work hard but have fun as well.
Love that sleep-in, red thing used for your curls, can I ask what it is? I've been trying to up my curl game lately.
Thank you, my aunt gifted it to me and I absolutely love it! It’s called a heatless curling headband.
@@bookshopbesties thank you!
Enjoyed!
I would love your videos even more if you were able to: turn on automatic subtitles. And make the sound from the aircondition less. ❤
The generally audio on this one was very low. Had my speaker at max volume to hear. Always appreciate subs too
Thank you for your input! I was having some major audio issues with this one, sorry about that. Subtitles is a great idea, I’ll see if I can still add them! If not, all future videos will have them for sure!
@@bookshopbesties lovely! 💜💜 thank you 😊
OMG are you having a party for the Iron Flame release!!?
We were planning on it and we may still but the books are so backordered, we won’t have the books by launch day, so we’re not sure if people would still be interested!
Love this so much!!!
