Join Kosta and his guest: David Uhrik, Owner and Director of Franklin Fixtures, US Pillars and Plenty Downtown Bookshop. In this episode: We'll start with the most topical question first, Plenty Bookshop moved across the street from 48 West Broad Street to 41 West Broad Street on January 1st. This is Plenty's 3rd location, and as an operations expert, I have to ask - what specifically spoke to you about this space?While many of our listeners might know you from Plenty Bookshop, and owning the company that built the You've Got Mail shelving, they might not know how Franklin Fixtures came to be or more importantly how it came to be in Cookeville.

You didn't go out seeking any of this. What's your advice to anyone that knows they're meant for something greater, but has no idea how to make it happen?Find out more about Plenty Downtown Bookshop:https://www.plentybookshop.com/
