Nowadays, it is not uncommon to hear about bookstores closing down in Hong Kong. From big brands such as Swindon and Popular to independent stores such as Bleak House Books, it is becoming more and more difficult for bookstores to survive when going digital is the new norm. Nonetheless, given the unique texture and smell of books, there is still a market of book lovers with a preference for real books over eBooks. After closing down our physical store, in order to continue our small family-owned bookstore business online, we took this course and learnt about managing placement of advertisement on Internet. We chose popular book review blogs for ad placement and monitored the performance daily. Since implementation, our book sales have doubled and our clientele now includes both locals and overseas customers. When closing our store felt like a defeat, it has now become an opportunity for us to expand our business online!
