I'm working with some of my colleagues to gather information on how different museums and organizations manage their stores...specifically metrics used, staffing, merchandise, and advertising.  If you are familiar with your organization's onsite store and would like to help, I've set up a short online survey at the link below:

Museum Store Models Survey

I'd appreciate any info you can provide.  Thanks!

We are in the process of setting up a Museum Store and I wondered if you would be willing to share the survey results and/or your findings?  It will help us set up the reporting benchmarks for Management oversight.

Thanks!
