Give Your Bookstore a Jumpstart

Have you ever discovered something helpful and thought, "I wish I'd known about that earlier"? Welcome to Jumpstart -- a four-week program packed with the kind of resources and information new bookstore owners will find useful as they work on establishing their business. SIBA created the Jumpstart program to help members, particularly new and prospective store owners, get oriented to SIBA and its member benefits, connect with sales reps and industry resources, get started with basic financial concepts, and have an outlet for questions.

Some of the things covered:

• Where to find scholarships for education and development
• Sales rep information for major suppliers
• Formulas for tracking cash flow and profitability
• An overview of important book industry platforms and how they can help your bookstore

Jumpstart runs every Wednesday from September 9 - September 30, at 1:00 p.m. Eastern, on Zoom. You can register for any or all sessions.
