The Art of Presentation in a Bookstore


A bookstore can be one of the most profitable ventures for a business owner. Customer choices vary widely when it comes to books and when book selection is guided by careful organization of genres in a bookstore, customers return back for that different experience. In other words, it becomes all the more convenient for avid readers, who are likely to come back time and again to the bookstore they feel most comfortable with.

India’s largest book stores, Sapna Book House owe their success among customers primarily due to their unmatched styles in displaying books according to genre, and classifying them as fiction and non-fiction in easy to find sections. Moreover, each of the classical bookstores found today have their own unique styles to display new arrivals.

Most customers expect the basic layout and design features common to all bookstores, including shelves that are devoid of clutter, and are stable. In addition, book lovers prefer to go by a floor plan and sufficient signs to lead them to the right section they might be interested in. This eliminates confusion and chaos. Further, a good bookstore features a cozy corner for reading and has a special area assigned for best sellers that customers like to frequent.

Arranging books in a bookstore is more of an art, extending far beyond mere organization skills, and bookstores often present books in the form of a book tower. In this case, books are stacked in a column with different three dimensional shapes and mimicking various forms of sculpture to attract the attention of eager customers.

Successful bookstores employ a creative team, to get their ideas flowing consistently while organizing the bookstore. This takes away the boredom and enlivens a book store, while also preserving genre based organization cautiously. A well thought out bookstore, generally features the best combination of organization skills and art of presentation of books.
