Marketing in Korean Bookstores: Recovered Editions & Book-funding

Publishing Industry   Marketing in Korean Bookstores:Recovered Editions & Book-funding Faster and unlike anyone else   2023.12.04         “Faster and unlike anyone else” - this is a phrase from a popular Korean song.

Sometimes, I sit in a corner, enter the logistics website, and start my morning work. Spending 3-4 minutes typing in the number of books and the name of the warehouse for the day is the most important task. Then, I put my dog back on the leash again, and head home.This was a dream 10 years back. Back then, the facsimile in one corner of the publishi...
