A rare treat for retail - bringing a subscription service to life with Rare Birds Books

Independent Thinking - Exploring a new era for retail and the high street

08-11-2021 • 49 mins

This week, we are speaking to Rare Birds Books founder, Rachel. Rare Birds Book Club started life as a subscription service, created by Rachel to fill a gap in the market - offering a hand-picked selection of women’s literature to shake up your regular reading habits and broaden your horizons. In the past 4 years the business has gone from strength to strength - and this year has fulfilled Rachel’s dream of opening an HQ, by making a move to the local high street and into bricks and mortar retail, setting up shop in August this year, in Edinburgh’s Stockbridge.

We talk to Rachel about growing a business and community from the ground up whilst working full time, being receptive to opportunity and making the move into retail.

If you’ve ever wondered about starting a business, to follow your passion or turn an interest into an income perhaps  - you’re going to find the next 50 mins very inspiring...
