Workshops will cover a broad range of subjects including understanding the financial dynamics of bookstore operations, the basics of store design, buying strategies and inventory management, the creation and execution of marketing plans, making the right technology decisions, and much more.
Registration for the workshop, which is held in conjunction with the American Booksellers Association, is limited to 20 stores. The workshop agenda, a list of trainers, and a registration form are available on the New Store page at www.pazbookbiz.com or for more information call (800) 260-8605.
A second full-week workshop will be held in Michigan in late September, prior to the Great Lakes Booksellers Association trade show, and a four-day program for prospective booksellers will take place from Tuesday, May 16, to Friday, May 19, at this year's BookExpo America in Washington, D.C.
