Company Overviews

About Beat The Bookstore

When our first store opened, it created a wild excitement amongst students as they flooded our store. They sold their used books to us and bought new ones and on their way out, they took plenty of our business cards and distributed around the campus.

Professors went ahead to inform students about our cheap book sales, parking shuttle drivers did their bit over the PA system, the campus help desk directed the students to us and passed out our business cards. Even the employees of the campus bookstore came in to buy from us and sell their textbooks as well.

 
Beat the Bookstore Franchise opportunities are now available in 30 states and increasing quickly. Obviously, there can only be one Beat The Bookstore at any college or university. So, if you are interested in liberating the campus near you, then contact us today!
