Customer Reviews

Good Start

I am very interested in starting my own business as an independent bookstore owner. This book was a great start for me and has a lot of information that is very useful.

Great book!!!

If you are looking for a comprehensive guide to assist you with opening up your own bookstore, then this is the book for you! Being a first time business owner, I had no idea of where to begin. I struggle for over two months just trying to do the research to get started. Then I came upon this book and within hours of reading it, I had a clear road map to start my own business. Now I'm not saying it made things easier. There is still a lot of hard work that goes into opening your own business. But it does make the initial starting point clearer.

Worth every penny!

It has been my dream to open up a bookstore for years. So, I decided to research it. I purchased this book and my copy is marked up completely. It contains my notes, sticky papers and more. It gave me valuable research that I feel would have taken me at least a year to obtain on my own. In addition, alot of her research is research you cannot get on-line. The reason is because it includes interviews she conducted with bookstore owners asking about their experiences of being a store owner, resources, ideas and more. It is crystal clear to me that a great deal of time and research went into putting this book together. As an author myself, I personally know how time consuming research can be in writing a book. So, Trust me, this book will be worth every penny!

Excellent Resource

I have been thinking about opening a bookstore for years and I really enjoyed this book. The information was very important to me in my process of getting started. The book covers not only the basics (which I definitely needed) but gave me a lot of industry information that I was having trouble finding. I liked the quotes from booksellers. It looks like the author really did a lot of research to put this together. I would recommend this book to anyone who is thinking about opening a bookstore!

Great resource.

The author has done a wonderful job writing the FabJob Guide to Become a Bookstore Owner! The book is full of usefull tips and in-depth information. It is so straightforward and helpful, it is easy to read, and it provides such fantastic information. Also the forms that were included on the CD-ROM were immensely practical and usefull and those alone are worth the cost of this book.
