3. Novelty Items
Kids will frequent your school store even more if you keep your store stocked with lots of novelty items like face paint, sunglasses, wallets, key chains, and wristbands. Not sure what items they’ll like best? Ask your school store manager to do a little market research and get kids to vote on the items they like before you buy them.
Be sure to use your school storefront to show case your items. If you don’t have a storefront or if your store isn’t located near high-traffic areas considering using our Paw Store. It’s a quick and easy way to create a school store display and order supplies. Each display comes stocked with paw school spirit supplies and includes a cardboard stand for easy portability and display so you can set them up during special events and in popular areas to increase sales.
