Problem:
College bookstores, especially independent stores, often have outdated and poorly
maintained Websites. This occurs because the bookstores usually do not have the budget or
manpower to build and maintain these sites. Often, part-time student employees are
building these sites.
At the same time this is occurring, the Colleges that these stores represent have fairly
intricate and modern Websites. This is due to the fact that the College has the budget and
manpower to cover these costs.
The bookstores budgets are usually separate from the Colleges budgets.
Solution:
Centaur Academic Media is willing to build and maintain the Websites for Free and charge a
per-transaction fee for Internet sales.
Centaur can incorporate the following features into any website:
Complete computer store hardware,
software and accessories
--- Including Electronic Software Distribution - ESD
Apparel and gifts
Books
--- Eventual Electronic Book Distribution
Supplies
Direct ties to online registration
programs
The sites are maintained by Centaur Academic Media.
All store buyers still keep current positions. Centaur merely provides more efficient
reporting and ordering capabilities and greater variety in products.
