[01]The point

I am a customer. The floor is strong. Inventory is real. The gap is not product — it is revenue you never get to ring up: people who never find you, pull customers who drift, and sales that stop when the lights go off.

This page is a revenue sketch. Modular. Optional. Built so you can see how a modern site, CRM, and optional online store turn what you already run into more money — not a redesign for its own sake.

[02]Money left on the table today

MOBILE = LOST VISITS

Site is fixed 800px desktop. Most people search on phones. They bounce before they ever see the store.

$0 AFTER HOURS

No cart after 5pm or Sundays. Impulse buys go to whoever is online — while your stock sits on the shelf.

WEAK DISCOVERY

@tazcomics: 337 followers, 31 posts. Vancouver’s largest comic shop with almost no digital reach.

Read You already pay rent, staff, and inventory for ~5,000 sq ft. Digital is the cheapest way to sell more of what is already on the shelves — and keep pull customers coming back every Wednesday.

[03]How each module makes money

AWebsite rebuild Mobile + SEO + events + pull form + correct hours // more foot traffic from Google · fewer dead visits · clear path to subscribe and visit

BCRM + digital pull list Holds, alerts, staff Wednesday view // higher repeat rate · fewer missed pulls · customers buy what you already ordered for them

COnline sales + smart inventory Controlled SKUs first (merch / GNs / preorders) // revenue after hours · preorders locked in · less dead stock via low-stock signals

DInstagram operating layer Drops, FNM, staff picks, 30-day plan // free demand engine for Wednesday new comics and events that fill the floor

[04]Illustrative revenue math

Not a guarantee. Directional only — so the shop can see the shape of the upside. Real numbers come from your weekly sales and pull count.

Lever	Simple model	Monthly upside
Mobile site + SEO	+10–20 new visits/week that convert at store avg ticket	$400–$1,200
Pull list CRM	Keep 15–30 more pulls active; fewer no-shows	$600–$2,000
Online / after-hours	Modest merch+GN cart: ~$50–$150/day avg	$1,000–$3,500
IG content system	Events + drops that fill FNM / FCBD	$200–$800

Payback frame Module A alone is $4,800. If digital drives ~$800–$1,500 extra per month in traffic + pulls, payback is roughly 3–6 months. Full stack compounds: site finds them → CRM keeps them → store sells when closed.
