Case Study: Page 158 Books achieves fivefold revenue growth with Square

How a North Carolina Book Store Scaled Their Revenue Fivefold

Page 158 Books, a North Carolina bookstore in Wake Forest, needed a more intuitive and flexible point-of-sale and inventory system than its clunky, server-based bookstore software. The team wanted a solution that would make checkout easier, simplify inventory management, and support growth beyond the register.

Square helped Page 158 Books with Square for Retail, along with Square POS and Square Register, giving staff easy product lookup, barcode scanning, cloud-based inventory tracking, purchase order management, and the ability to sell in-store, at events, and offline. With Square, Page 158 Books increased sales from $95,000 to $545,000, grew to 13 employees, and saved 8 hours per week managing inventory.
