  • Summary

  • “We’re not just selling music. We’re selling stories, connection, and discovery.”

    In this episode of For the Love of Vinyl, host Scott Orr sits down with Terry Cole—co-owner of Plaid Room Records in Loveland, OH — for a candid and insightful look at what it takes to run a successful record store in 2025.

    Presented by A to Z Media (http://atozmedia.com)

    From customer buying trends and pricing strategies to the legacy of “dollar bin” records and the reality of managing inventory, Terry shares it all.

    They also dive into the emotional connection people have with their collections, what records fly off the shelves (spoiler: Rumors still rules), and how Plaid Room blends in-store charm with a robust national web store.

    A must-listen for vinyl lovers, record store dreamers, and indie label nerds alike.
