Better Shopping for Public Broadcasting  

A Major Online Retailer...just for Public Broadcasters
Public Broadcasting Shops serves public broadcasters and their audiences. Every purchase supports you, the local broadcaster. Commissions are generally double and often triple those paid by Amazon or Barnes & Noble.

We provide public radio and television audience members with simple, safe and convenient shopping for books, CDs and DVDs, offering the same in-print inventory as other major online retailers like Barnes & Noble, Amazon and Borders. In fact, PubShops has the same distributors and fulfillment partners as the others.

Our Store Becomes Your Store
All participating stations have their own branded store. Member stations enjoy an exceptional arts and entertainment service for their audiences, a dependable ongoing revenue source and a partner dedicated to increasing membership and member services.

Your Store, Your Admin
As the owner and manager of your media store, you'll have immediate access to customer purchasing records. This means you can view and download contact information for anyone who makes a purchase there. This could prove valuable for member cultivation purposes. Plus, you'll see which CDs or books or movies your listeners prefer, and you'll have powerful tools to promote those items more prominently in your store, via specific links, and in your e-mailed newsletters.

Pricing Designed to Increase Your Membership
Public Broadcasting Shops gives audience members a complete and comprehensive shopping experience. Customers may order online or by calling the toll free phone number. The PubShops pricing structure (a regular discount price and a lower discount price just for your members) is designed to increase your membership rolls. If a customer is a member of your station, they enjoy the lowest prices on all books, cds and movies.

To become a participating station please call Dave Creagh, Senior Sales Director, by phone at 828.355.9799 or by email at dave@pubshops.org. We look forward to serving you and your audience.
