We have all finally made it. One of my favorite times of year. Not because it’s a time to give and get presents, but it’s a time that really brings people together, both physically and personally.
As a new business owner, especially in the retail market, one of the things I’ve always dreamed of was to be open and available during the holiday shopping season. This gives me such a chance to see people as they come into the shop. The conversations, the questions, all of it adds to the holiday magic that is this time of year.
Here at Seymour’s Little Shop, we want you all to know that this space is here for all of your holiday needs. This is beyond only the shopping part of it. We are an open space for browsing and chatting as much as we are for shopping. Come in and tell us about your new favorite read. See if we’ve read anything by your new favorite author, or ask about the new event plans we have.
Want to tell us how bad the weather is outside? Come on in! We are here 70 hours a week, so honestly, it could be 80 degrees outside, and I’d probably not even know. 😀
Here at Seymour’s Little Shop, we want you to think about this place as a nice space to be as much as we want to be your favorite place to buy a book and other related items. When the little bell above the door rings, know that we are here to greet you with a smile and hope that if there is anything you need, we are here to help.
But, there are also those who really need to get some shopping done and we are here for that too. In person we offer many new books to include all the new ones we bring in every single week. Custom orders are a great way for you to get something that we don’t have on the shelf and as a thank you we offer the 10% discount on all items ordered.
Now on the website, we can say that our link is up and running for our shop on bookshop.org. This is for those who find online shopping is the best way to help with the incoming holiday season.
Have a cousin in New Jersey?
You can order online and ship it directly to them.
Aunt in Vegas?
Off goes the new mystery novel they’ve been waiting for. Two great things about bookshop.org is that almost 100% of their stock is discounted in some way. You’ll almost never pay full price for a book through bookshop.org, but know that each purchase helps Seymour’s Little Shop.
Just like we do audiobooks through Libro.fm, bookshop.org is a terrific way to help everyone here in the community shop for their favorite reading related items while giving the freedom of online shopping and still helping us grow within the community with proceeds from each purchase.
Similar to ordering online directly from us, the online ordering page linked above will give you a button to our shop on bookshop.org. Everyone loves a new book for the holiday season, and if online is the best for you, I hope you’ll consider shopping through our online storefront there as we continue to grow here in our new home.
Also, I’ve attached a link below incase my rambling here has given you the itch to go buy a book. 😀
