As soon as I know it, the grand opening date! Once I open, I will send a weekly email with new releases to look forward to, and any new events we have coming up!
Risks
Opening any new business comes with risks. As an indie bookstore, the biggest risk is going to be online retailers and big box bookstores and their ability to sell books at a negative profit rate. As an indie bookstore that supports mostly indie authors, that is not feasible for me. My goal is to build a community that provides an inviting and comfortable experience that readers will be proud to support.
The timeline of opening a storefront is also uncertain. With crowd and private funding, we will be able to speed up the process.
