300 Seconds: Display Freshener
If you have just 300 seconds today to devote to marketing, spend that time freshening a display. I’m not suggesting that you create a new display from scratch, just make a few adjustments to an existing one that might be tired.
Are there empty gaps? Have books lying flat been rotated so one sees white pages instead of colorful spine? Has a customer used the display table for their discard pile? Take this time to freshen it up.
If your table displays already look great, then turn your attention to a single shelf. Spend just 5 minutes making spines even, re-alphabetizing, and creating a face-out or two.
It doesn’t take long for a carefully crafted display to be manhandled into a bit of a mess. When that happens, it’s good. It means customers are picking up and considering books. It doesn’t take long to get those displays back in shape either.
