How The Book Cellar Used Bookstore Thrives with Chad Thompson - Grounded In Maine with Amy Bolduc

Описание: I attended Chad Thompson's talk at the SOVA Rise Entrepreneur Summit last October about business planning, I didn't tell him this, but it wasn't a talk that I thought really pertained to me, since I didn't really have a business to market so to speak; something drew me to it- and I'm so glad I listened to that!

Chad mentioned something about the business plan that I had never heard or even thought about before, and honestly I didn't hear much after that. I've been guilty of thinking the business plan was lame. I felt like he was speaking directly to me; I didn't quite know how I'd pitch him to be my podcast guest, or how the conversation would actually go, but I did, and he said yes. And I'm so very glad it all worked out (I took a couple of weeks to actually email him, and my email ended up in his spam), because this conversation with Chad just felt beautiful.

Chad and his wife own The Book Cellar, a used book store in Abingdon, VA - their mission is to make literacy affordable, and they wanted to do things differently, and it has worked very well! He talks about why the store is so successful, and shares some pretty incredible stories that show how they're making it all work after only 2 1/2 years, and creating a supportive community in the process. Y'all, check out my Instagram or Linkedin Post promoting this, or go watch this on YouTube, because you can see the very small, but most welcoming used bookstore that is The Book Cellar.

Chad is also a YouTube creator, talking about lifestyle learnings, and also journaling. His channel is here:    / @chadeveryday
