The New Store Workbook is a complete, hands-on guide for museum professionals covering all planning stages of opening a new museum store.
The New Store Workbook gets down to the nitty gritty of planning to open a new museum store, from calculating the sales dollars needed per square foot, to estimating dollars spent by visitors, all the way to moving the whole operation onto the right e-commerce platform. The thirteen chapters that make up this journey are peppered with charts, tables, and real-world examples, including inventory projections, purchase orders, job announcements, and press releases. The new edition expands the discussion on social media, mobile shopping and new platforms for e-commerce and includes a complete chapter dedicated to the ins and outs of the Unrelated Business Income Tax. It’s your personal assistant, helping you embark on a successful adventure straight through opening day.
