For Booksellers
MI Book Hop is a fun bookish event kicking off on Independent Bookstore Day that encourages people to visit independent bookstores across Michigan over a month-long period to fill out a Bingo Card for a chance to win gift cards and earn a commemorative pin. Participating stores report new customers and increased traffic and sales, and hoppers report how much fun it is!
Now heading into its third year, MI Book Hop has grown exponentially! Tote bags listing
all stores were available for order and we created a Bonfire store to make tees and sweatshirts available.
MI Book Hop is run by a committee of your fellow independent bookstore owners and booksellers.
It’s easy to participate!
