Martello, a junior at Fordham University, was determined to win the war against the bookstore. He started posting flyers around campus to sell his books. Many people simply tear them down or ignore them. However, Martello, a business major, got an idea. I recognized the need for a place to buy and sell books other than the campus bookstore.
Students can post and search for books on the site.
When they find the books they want, they contact the person directly. The site has received over 2000 hits and has now expanded to four other universities. An alternative to the dreaded campus bookstore is not the only business that most campuses need. Whatever the reason, if there s a great need for it or a good probability that students will use it, that business will most likely be successful. It s safer and more convenient.
