Welcome to the Future Booksellers Club

So you want to be a bookseller, maybe even own your own bookshop? Join the club! 

​

Since starting Got Books, I've been getting lots of messages from aspiring booksellers. That's how the idea of the Future Booksellers Club came about! The Future Booksellers Club is a space for those eager to one day drop everything (except their books) and become booksellers. Our online meetups cover topics ranging from naming your shop (and the shop's resident cat) to the more practical challenges, such as having a physical bookshop in the internet era. Every once in a while, we invite present-day booksellers to come along, so we can learn what it's really like to manage a bookshop.

My hope is that the Future Booksellers Club helps us keep on dreaming of our own bookshop, until we're ready to open its doors. And who knows, maybe we even find someone crazy enough to become the co-owner to our future bookshop.  After all, every bookshop starts as a dream, every dreamer craves a story, and every story begins with a chapter.

From one future bookseller to another,
