Tracks Independent Bookstore Day, held on the last Saturday of April, is a one-day celebration of indie bookstores, bookselling, and the entire literary ecosystem. At its core are exclusive, just-for-indies books and literary items from major publishers and authors. In 2016, 430 bookstores around the US participated, generating an average sales increase of 200%. Four Midwestern stores, some initially skeptical, talk with the national IBD program director about what works, what doesn’t, and why you should JOIN THE PARTY!

2:45–3:45 pm

Moderator: Kris Kleindienst, Panelists: Samantha Schoech from Independent Bookstore Day, Joanna Parzaknois (The Bookbug), Matt Keliher (Subtext Books), Kris Kleindeist (Left Bank Books), Nina Barrett (Bookends and Beginnings) Marketing Workshop with Beth Golay of Books & Whatnot We all promote and market our bookstores, but do we know what’s working or why it is? Discuss hands-on examples of ways you are already marketing your bookshop with tips and tricks to make life easier. Websites, email marketing, and social media are already parts of our marketing strategy, so come see examples of what works, what we can all do better, and most importantly why these techniques work. Moderator: Larry Law (Anderson’s Bookshop. Panelist: Beth Golay (Books & Whatnot)

Hiawatha 1

Hiawatha 2

Connecting to Your Inner Leadership Self - offered by the Shannon Leadership Institute What is your natural leadership style? What fuels you to do this work? Come to this interactive workshop to explore who you are as a leader, and how to remain an authentic leader both in the workplace and in your personal lives. Owners, managers and staff are welcome to attend. Attendees will walk away with: A deeper understanding of your core values and how they play out in your work; check-points for renewal and a plan of action to avoid burnout; awareness of your personal leadership style and your blind spots; understanding of how to leverage your leadership style to maximize effectiveness and bridge across different leadership styles. Two Hour Sessions 2:45–5:00 pm

Education for Authors: Taking Part in the Indie Renaissance Indie bookstores are the movers and shakers of the bookselling world, helping authors build their careers. How can authors take best advantage of this? In this session, we invite all Heartland authors (that is, traditionally published authors) to learn from education designed precisely for them. We’ll cover social media, how to reach out to indies, preparing for indie events, what a fantastic author event includes (ie, not a lot of reading from your book!) This is a two-hour session, and if not all time is used for education, we encourage authors to mingle and get to know one another.

Hiawatha 3

Rock Island

Panelists: Linda White (BookMania), Pamela Klinger Horn (Excelsior Bay Books), and Wendy Webb, well-loved regional author of books such as The Fate of Mercy Alban.

Come see some hands-on examples of the ways bookstores are using online tools and services to simplify their workdays and increase sales. Specific tools the panel will cover: Sign-up Genius; Groupme; Doodle Poll; Survey Monkey; whenIwork.com; googledocs; brownpapertickets. com; Eventbrite; Constant Contact; Mail Chimp. 4:00-5:00 pm

Hiawatha 1

Moderator: Larry Law (Anderson’s Bookshop) Panelists: John Mesjak (Abraham Associates); Jessica Peterson White (Content) The Changing Landscape of Purchasing Get smart about your buying habits. With various options like publishers, distributors, and individual authors, ordering your inventory can be overwhelming. We will discuss the best practices for frontlist vs. backlist, direct vs. indirect ordering, and take a brief step into the murky waters of co-op credits, returns, and promo codes.
