There is a kind of satisfaction in picking up a good book that isn’t just staring at a tablet or computer. I love a good book and I think it’s important for people to continue to read real books not just digitized content.
Not to mention that you actually own the physical book, unlike with Kindle where the books still belong to Amazon
I think it works because they’ve done a nice job at mixing it as a library, bookstore, and coffee shop. There’s a certain atmosphere that helps people enjoy their time there. And customizing product to your populace is amazing. Those in the middle of New York will want different books than those around Atlanta or Boise.
I can explain the success in one short sentence: He understands the business! He also understands don't worry about the money, be the best around and the money will come.
So many business failures in recent years can be traced to the concept if the "interchangeable executive," the one with the MBA who's got a head full of business theory but doesn't understand the business he's in charge of. That and looking for short-term profit instead of long-term growth.
Well done Mr. Daunt!
This man is literally an answer to prayers I had prayed for Barnes and Noble’s survival and thrive!!!!!❤❤❤❤11
Free market economic Laissez-faire books not gov books every store the same old boring self gov propaganda books off the front in every store
That’s how he saved it
I don’t care what kind of pagan hedonistic book Opera’s publisher is reading and pushing out
@@1MicrosoftCPU It may be true the garbage is what the masses are buying up that he puts in the front of the store. Assuming it is what's selling, the point is this garbage is keeping the store open. You and I then should be grateful to those poor saps who suck this garbage up because at least we can still sail serenely past these and find the treasures we know are still hidden within on those back shelves, right? So I still say, God bless Mr. Daunt!
I go to visit B&N at least once a week, I'm now a premium member, and my bookcases are overflowing. I prefer print books because I don't want anyone to "update" the copies of my books. The digital copies won't last as paper books will, either. I love turning the pages of a book and relishing every luscious word of the books I love. I'm sad so many people don't read - they don't know the adventures they're missing!
Make Americans Read Again
No. I love the masculine, hard working American manly men who know how to build and fix things and treat women with respect. We still have those men in the south anyway.
@stefanjager4131 wiener schnitzel
@@Dee-743you can both read and build and fix things, while respecting women.
Nothing beats the smelling of the book and the turning of real pages.. I have never went to the digital book reading - always kept "the real deal"
I love Barnes & Noble. It is a destination. I love taking the grandkids there and letting them pick out a book and a snack. 😁 They are also in the birthday club and get a free cupcake every year.
I stopped bringing my grand child, each kid's book she picked up had a starting costs ranging from 30 - 40 dollars.
I miss real stores. Bookstores are so relaxing to look through. Sitting down to read a book is such a lovely experience.
I tried Amazon Kindle once, but when I found out that you have to pay a monthly fee for having access to their 'digital library', I cancelled it right away, and haven't looked back since.
The benefits of purchasing a physical book is that you pay for it once and thats it, you own it. Take good care of it, store it in good place and it will last for decades. You don't have rely on batteries or internet access. And most importantly, it can't be hacked or manipulated by so-called 'sensitivity readers'.
So physical books are here to stay.
I only wish Borders could have pulled this off. There used to be a small chain in CA called The Upstart Crow coffee and books. Cool, casual but of course in California was doomed to not last.
@tracktrocq- Strange but true that one state has many communities that allow people to come in to their businesses and scoop up $949 of merchandise and walk out without paying or repercussion. Just may have some connection with CA business failures? 🤷🏻♂️ That and real estate prices, cost of labor and taxes.
ikr
I think it’s because they lay low with politics and just sell books. Ta-dah!
finally a CEO i like!
I love Barnes & Noble. Get a good book and some coffee, very relaxing for me. And I’ll always buy actual books rather than digital.
@3LJ3F3 I’m happy the starbucks in the Peoria, Illinois B &N is still here.
@3LJ3F3 That’s sad, wish you guys still had one in your b&n there. I was at mine here the other day, great quick and easy food as well. B&n grilled cheese is pretty awesome.
I absolutely love this store but their prices are just ridiculous. But, their verity is like non other.
Awesome woke corporation who works with Starbucks!
@stefanjager4131look at your lonely not see self 😂
The problem is that homeless people & junkies keep taking over businesses like Barnes & Noble...I wish they would enforce a rule where if you're stinking up the store, you have to leave...
Sorry, I try to be respectful towards homeless people, but many people have had enough...
I’m 100% with you. I never came back to one store where a homeless guy was sitting in the cafe and his odor so overpowering! All I could think about was how I never wanted to come back and end up touching chairs and tables or mags or books he might have touched. Gross! Agreed business owners should be able to have anyone removed for their bad odor by police. I think they don’t just ask otherwise for fear of the person’s potentially violent response. Hence, call the cops.😢
I have a problem being "respectful" towards homeless people. I had to chase one out of our condo complex last week because he kept circling his bike near an Amazon truck delivering packages to my neighbors. I have caught them being utterly disgusting behind our storage building and they leave trash everywhere they go. I also saw a homeless guy being escorted out of our local B&N store because he kept yelling and throwing the books off the shelves. Letting these people run wild will not solve anything.
No fear of a flash mob hitting Barnes & Noble makes it a safe shopping destination and experience
I love this video clip! ❤ Book stores are so amazing. Book stores are an adventure for the mind.
Congrats, I missed this bookstore and hope to see one open up again. A real reading space.
I'm glad Barnes & Nobel is still doing good. It's one of my favorite stores. Even though I have an Amazon Kindle, I still enjoy turning physical pages and reading a good story.
Yeah, I can see how this policy would work perfectly BUT ONLY IF the local store manager cared to make sure they truly catered to their local customer’s desires. My local B&N had to close but every time I went in there they were carrying all these books that only leftist single women would like. Manager has to swallow their pride about what they want and truly ask what their local customers want.❤
Well, if a certain store isn't performing like the others, then they can now identify who is the problem.
I agree, a lot of liberal material, which they cater to.
Bring Borders Books back
A good book is a good silent companion😊
The digital books definitely won't work for us! Babies & children need to hold the books & turn the page. Tactile learners need the motion to go with the story plus the interaction with the caregivers(parents, grandparents, sitters, etc). We won't forget how books increase the joy of reading!
I love having a physical book weather i'm reading from my fravoriate Author or an Instructional manual. Having the book in hand is a great feeling.
Whether, not weather. Favorite, not fravoriate.
I buy used books from smaller bookshops. They should also consider selling and trading used books which might make it a more sustainable business.
I can bring GRAND DAUGHTER to goodwill and get 4 books for a dollar. AND NOT NEED TO SPEND 30-40 PER BOOK.
The stores kinda sucks. I’ve noticed it’s a huge selection overpriced liberal books and pompous dumpy people slopping around.
It all needs to go on line! Are people going to start getting out again?
I love that for B&N. They’ve certainly always had my business and will continue to. Yes I can get cheaper books online but that feeling of being in the bookstore is the best
Going to keep it simple- the new layout/design sucks. It went from warm and inviting to a cold airport bookstore. Stop it.
Barnes & Nobles is my favorite store, period. I’m literally waiting in my car for mine to open. 😂
I also see people are finally realizing that digital purchases can be taken away and be lost forever! But a physical copy will always stay with you! This is the same for videogames
I miss Barnes & Noble ~ perusing great books ~ perhaps a purchase & sit in an attached Starbucks & dive in & READ ~ Ours in Old Town Pasadena California has been closed maybe 5 years ~ Does GenZ even touch books ??? ~ but the tactilebexpreience of touching a glossy print page ~ even if a drift of the scent of ink still wafts is rich ~ a lingering tie to something so cherished ~ to hold ~ to carry ~ to put in a special place when we arrive at home ~ if electricity fails we can read by candlelight 🕯️ A Book & Home 🤗📗📗🔖
Beautifully put. I always say “it’s not the same hugging and kissing my iPad or phone when I complete an ebook or audiobook.” A good book has just left you feeling so good and fulfilled you wanna love it back, ya know? I often do hug and kiss my books!!! (Non French kissing obviously😂)
I used to buy a lot of books at Barnes and Noble. They were real bookstores. You could check a stack of books and decide which ones you wanted to buy that day and which ones you want to get later. Over time, the Barnes and Noble bookstores began to disappear and were becoming Barnes and Noble variety stores, and then it was all gone.
About a month ago, I went by were one of the old stores was and thought I would see if it was still open. The old store was empty, but I looked across the shopping center as we were leaving and saw a new Barns and Noble sign. It was a real brand new store. Huge with lots of new good books and a coffee shop. A compleat change.There were a lot of people buying books. They do need more chairs spread out among the books. It's more comfortable to select books when you can sit down. And much better buying a book you can see in person. We left with an arm load of books and are planning to go back next week. It is a longer drive now but worth it from time to time.
My books are for me, my children and their children. Permanent paper books, history, how to live, and how to provide for yourself and your family. Things that almost nobody knows or realy cares about anymore.
A lot of the old books are not available in the store's. Need chairs for sitting, especially for the elderly. Need bathrooms.
Always have to love a good book ^.^
ikr
Books are the driving force in education, technology and most everything else. I can’t see electronics, internet or whatever replacing books. I could pick up a thirty year old book, in my collection, to reference something that I am not sure of or had forgotten. Through books you could learn something, in an hour, that someone spent a lifetime researching.
Books a million, a second and Charles have tried. Nothing beats Barnes and noble. Borders when it used to exist…
Barnes and noble is doing amazing I love it
I would be shocked if Barnes & Noble will open 30 new stores and if they are even profitable. Amazon destroyed this company back 2010. In fact Amazon is so efficient selling books that they actual print each rare book before they ship it eliminating any possible inventory or storage.
Ah independence! Funny how that works.
Exactly!!!!
NOT banning books might help book sales?
Which were banned?
@@dcpack874 so far.
@@jacktadashlist a few.

No, I am all for making trans queer smut and critical race theory books only available online. Some of that is just garbage and filth and smut kids shouldn’t see in their local bookstores.
Once upon a time about 29 years ago, a website started up selling books and nothing else.
That website bookseller was the first real competition to B&N. The rest is history.
Back at it again with another one.

Turned to digital in 2007 and never looked back: Because the material becomes totally free with a reader or even just the app. Approaching. 7,000 Amazon and my 1st source is public libraries.
Maybe the arrival of BookTok has something to do with it.
As long as I keep seeing inappropriate childrens books in these chains, I am not shopping there. Fox somehow forgot that they probably reported on this once or twice.
Loved B&N until it went woke. Plus I dislike the newly restructured rewards program.
This is encouraging, good for you!🎉
Going to find The Giver today!
They got rich from Obama's fake book money laundering model 😂
lol
I stopped bringing my grand child to the bookstore, each kid's book she picked up had a starting price ranging from 30 - 40 dollars. normal people cant afford spending that much for a single child's book. All this guy is doing raising the prices on everything. nothing new to corporate america.
besides, I can bring her to goodwill and get 4 books for a dollar.
There's always going to be SOME interest in physical book stores. B&N has to be the only one still standing- everyone else has shuttered, so they're vacuuming up all the remaining business.
I love barns and nobles because of manga
I love Barnes and Noble. I will always rather read a printed book than a computer screen.
The last time I was in B&N it seemed like they were adapting by turning themselves into a toy store / indoor playground.
Too bad Barnes and Noble is so expensive for some of the books
Their books are already priced. Just look at the back cover.
@@sbyrstall there are a few books that are cheaper than the price at a few other stores near me, that's what I was getting at plus since the nearest store to me is nearly 50 miles away it doesn't help
Just wish they had (more ) (cleaned )stuff chairs.
In Gulfport ms
I’d pay to donate new stuffed chairs to my local Barnes and Noble at that point. Write off, too.
a lot of books 📚 😮😮
Read read read I. Lve to read

So, worker control works
- The highest salary for a Barnes & Noble employee, not a manager, is $12/hour.
Yeah I worked there and trust me we didn’t care. All just love living their whole day around books! Those who don’t, don’t apply or leave fast. Their are two kinds of compensation you get from a job, one is financial and the other is psychological. For us booksellers, the psychological pay means everything and pays us richly. Most people sacrifice the psychological compensation for more financial and live hating their jobs.
@@ASMRPlaylistQueen tsk, tsk - There, not "their".
@@janetkriegl6720 Yeah, that's what happens when you're texting. But even then, editors miss this stuff, and I have hired and paid enough to know that. I'd wager you wouldn't like to give me the chance to comb through all your comments because the first thing I would point out here would be: tsk, tsk - ." not ". See?
However, you're typical and unoriginal response of pointing out the inconsequential to try and assert some perceived superiority rather than address the substance of the remark with anything insightful or meaningful of your own surprises not at all. Karens are memes. Why they feel the need to try and make themselves feel better by attempting to tear down others is a mystery.
Be a meme, then, if you struggle with that same need. I must assume the substance of my comment struck a little too close to home for you. But thanks for your "contribution," I know you tried your best.
I don’t know where the oz4dq came from.
You tube won’t let me edit or delete this. I have always been
nice
If only Borders had this model. They would still be around today.
Pay cash for a REAL book and the MAN don’t have a clue! 😁
No, you don’t get it, obviously. What you prioritize, you are willing to pay the price asked for. Period. There is probably something else in your life you pay what others would consider dumb prices for because it is your true priority. Maybe drugs, wine, tattoos, a Tesla, etc. For true book lovers, we want the books more than anything and we are happy to pay.
@@ASMRPlaylistQueen drugs, wine, or tattoos? Wow. You must be a white liberal.

Barnes and noble went woke I won’t shop there. Only thing I read is truth social.
Repent Repent the day of the Lord is at hand! If you have not received salvation from Jesus Christ you will spend all eternity (trillions and trillions) of years in hell. There will be everlasting torment for you and everyone you know who doesn’t know the Lord. Repent today cry out for mercy! A man must be born again to enter the Kingdom of Heaven.
In the bible Jesus said a man must be born again to go to Heaven. A lot of people think this means they should merely believe in him. We see so often in our world today and abrupt end to people's lives. And it becomes increasingly clear that when we die nothing else matters aside from our relationship with Jesus Christ. That is the reality of God's creation whether we like it or not. He is the creator and we are merely his creation. Here to live on his terms and happily at that. John 3:16 Says for God so loved the world that he gave his only son that whoever would believe on him would not perish but have everlasting life. But John 2: 23 says Now when he was in Jerusalem at the passover, in the feast day, many believed in his name, when they saw the miracles which he did. 24But Jesus did not commit himself unto them, because he knew all men, 25And needed not that any should testify of man: for he knew what was in man. One must square how one verse says to believe and be saved. And one verse says he did not commit himself to everyone who believes. It's crucial to think of these things because they are Heaven and hell issues. He said if you’re not willing to come after me you’re not worthy of me. And if you don’t take up your cross to follow me you’re not worthy of me. Whoever tries to keep his life will lose it but whoever will lose his life for my sake will find it. 2 Timothy 2:25 Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart. 23But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes. 24And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient, 25In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; 26And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.
Too bad they don't encourage indie writers and don't host book signing events.
I am an indie author and I can assure you that we can still sell at B&N but most indie authors are clueless or too lazy/overwhelmed to educate themselves to learn how. Secondly, they do hold book signings but again see my answer above cuz the issue is the same.
Who cares about Barnes & Noble? Most Fox viewers can barely read anyways
Johnny .
You are a snob. An illiterate snob at that.
Bthrt
Pathetic. Get a life.
And in their comments, the spelling and grammar is usually atrocious!
Well they did not force us to watch or read all about being a trans and they did not do a push for kids to educated them on how to be a pervert.
I wish more black people knew the joys of reading.
