Like many college stores, the Thompson Rivers University Bookstore has weathered a lot of industry changes over the last few years. Searching for a way to counteract declining textbook sales and improve student service, Course Materials Purchasing Coordinator Jon Mackintosh signed up for SimpleSource with the hope that he could save time and bring more high-quality used wholesale textbooks into the store.

Campus store professionals are busy. Increasingly asked to do more with fewer resources, stores need tools that will streamline workloads and help keep costs down. When MBS presented SimpleSource to the Skyline College Bookstore, Store Manager Kevin Chak immediately saw the potential it had to save him and the store a lot of time.

The Independent College Bookstore Association Retail Conference is February 14 – 17 in Las Vegas, and MBS is going to be onsite to answer your questions as both a partner and resource.
Your wholesale partnership is one of the most important business relationships your store cultivates, so it's important to review it on occasion and make sure it's not one-sided.
