Which is the correct expression?

I want to open an online bookshop, so I have a slogan for that. I want to say the bookshop is more like a mentor than a bookshop. But I am confused about the sentence. Could you pick the correct one? Adding your own sentence is also highly appreciated.

More mentor, less bookshop.

More of a mentor than a bookshop.
