About this listen
What if you could run a bookstore without actually owning a storefront?
In this episode, we chat with Alicia Boemi, the founder of Lakeside Books in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin. It’s a charming indie bookstore that lives inside another store and rolls around town in a tricked-out trailer. Yep, she’s running two bookstores in one… without the overhead of a full brick-and-mortar.
We talk about:
- How Alicia landed a “shop within a shop” and why she doesn’t even have to staff it
- Why she launched her business with a bookmobile first and how it totally paid off
- The reality of inventory headaches, damaged books, and sticker bestsellers
- What it’s like hauling a mobile bookstore around town with your husband and a Jeep
- Her tips for book-loving entrepreneurs who want to test the waters without diving all the way in
This episode will leave you inspired and maybe even Googling “cute trailers for sale.” 😆
