Market Analysis
Over the last two years, books market has experienced a drop in growth. This is due to the
overall poor state of the economybecause of pandamic. Experts in books business believes
that current economic downturn will benefit the secondhand bookstore business. As customers
cut back on purchases, used bookshops will become more appealing to those who still want to
buy books. As a result, now is an excellent time to enter the business and obtain market share.
Used bookshops serve the full purchasing population of their geographical area, but they focus
on customers who want to buy books/music at a discount price and, in the case of books, do not
have a long-term commitment to the product.
Target Market
Casual Shoppers:
These are clients who go to the bookshop with no set idea about what they want to buy. They
intend to spend a significant amount of time perusing the store and are frequently labeled
impulse purchases. They frequently leave the store with minimal items or without purchasing
anything. These customers are drawn to bookstores that provide inexpensive costs and a broad
selection.
