Your landlord can be one of the most important influencers on the success of your business, but this critical relationship is often only considered when the rent is due or when it’s time to sign the lease. Bookstore owners who have experienced the positive results of cultivating the landlord relationship will share their experiences and explore effective strategies for landlord relations. Panelists will discuss:
- Best practices for improving landlord relationships
- Tips for turning your landlord into an advocate for your business as well as indie businesses in your community
- Tips for lease negotiations
