just one or two things..
ReplyDeletethe store is great...very quaint looking!
but the big problem is how your website works...its pains-takingly slow to load up...there is no history of the shop and business...you know, stuff like how the name was chosen, photos and possibly short bio's of the staff running it, etc...things like that keep the customer's interest...otherwise he/she will click out of it in 3 secs flat! other thing is the online store...again, very disappointing...no photos at all hardly of the books you want to sell...very slow to load up, etc etc.
come on guys...this is the 21st century...if you are going to survive, you just have to pull your socks up...otherwise you will go the way 1000s of bookshops worldwide have gone in this techie world of ours...goodness knows, its tough enough to sell real books these days...and there you are turning away customers! no offence...my opinions entirely!
