As a bookstore owner you can get paid to read, recommend, buy and sell books. 

"I love selling books. Books change people's lives. Whether new books or old, I couldn't sell anything else." 
     - Gayle Shanks, Co-Owner
       Changing Hands Bookstore
       Tempe, Arizona

As a bookstore owner, you will have the freedom to make your own decisions and express your own creative spirit. You have the luxury of selling the type of books you want to sell. 

You can sell all new books, all used books, a combination of both, or even rare and collectible books. You could have a bookstore that sells a variety of categories of books, or specialize in a niche such as science fiction, Christian, feminist, children's or art books. 

You can also enjoy an excellent reputation as an important part of your local business community. Many booksellers make a significant impact on the city or town where they live. You could open a bookstore that becomes a town institution or a must-see for tourists. 

If being a bookstore owner sounds like the career of your dreams, the FabJob Guide to Become a Bookstore Owner is for you! In this e-book you will discover how you can get started and succeed in the bookstore business.
