Not Just a Gift Shop: Activating Your Retail Store

More than just a gift shop, your organization's store can provide visitors, volunteers, staff, and other stakeholders the opportunity to directly support your mission while offering unique, highly-curated, and mission-related items. But where to start?

Using examples from the Maine Maritime Museum store, we'll review existing resources and easy-to-implement ideas to start or improve your organization's retail experience—in person and online. 

About the presenter:
Amanda Pleau is the Marketing & Communications Manager at Maine Maritime Museum. She graduated from University of Southern Maine with a BA in Media & Communications and an MFA in Creative Writing. Amanda is a boomerang—she left Maine after graduate school, and after a number of years in western Massachusetts and Los Angeles, she is happy to have settled in Bath with her partner and their four-legged friends.

Registration for this event closes Friday, August 15.
