The Summer Street store launched a website earlier this month, including the click and collect option, where customers can order online then collect in-store at a convenient time.

Co-owner Phillip Schwebel said the site showed which books were in stock, the store could order in out-of-stock items and postage was also an option.

"We just wish to make it easy for our customers to purchase any books they need," he said.

TIME is running out to secure early bird tickets to The Huddle, a weekend on February 8-9 aimed at inspiring women already in business or considering the move.

About 260 of the target 400 tickets have been sold since the event went on sale last week.

Organiser Pip Brett said the event, featuring 12 guest speakers, was not just aimed at retailers or those in creative businesses.

"We have lawyers coming, we have accountants, real estate agents," she said.

Ms Brett anticipated the talks on social media would be particularly valuable.

"It's never too late to start something - people think 'I'm so behind on Instagram, I'll never get the followers', but [Grace Brennan of #buyfromthebush is] up to 200,000 followers," she said.

Sunrise television personality Edwina Bartholomew will host the event.

Early bird prices end on Christmas Day.
