  Booksellers Association and the Society of Authors advise indie
  authors on how to get into bookstores

http://www.thenewpublishingstandard.com/booksellers-association-and-the-society-of-authors-advise-indie-authors-on-how-to-get-into-bookstores/

While the advice is aimed at British and Irish authors looking to get 
into bricks & store, most of what is said here will apply to the US and 
other markets too.
