The Best Book for the Gift Basket Business

Two years ago, I was curious about making my hobby of designing gift baskets into a home-based business. I had the creativity but the business aspect was eluding me. After reading this book--I now understand how to set prices, hire good employees, promote and run my business smoothly. After two years, I am a success in my small town and I'm ready to expand my business on to the Internet. Thankfully, this book has a section on Internet marketing. It is an easy-to-read book, with helpful examples and up-to-date information. I recommend it to anybody considering the gift basket business.

Excellent Guide for Beginning Gift Basket Companies.

This book has everything you need and more from how to start your inventory and select your standard baskets to even the recommendations on pricing and wholesale supplies. I could not have chosen a better selection. I was so impressed I have also checked out some of the books in their other series.

In a word, INCREDIBLE!

This book is a step by step process that will show you how to run a gift basket business. It gives you tons of addresses for supplies and shows. It talks about running your business in the US and Canada. There's lots of little things that made it worth buying. Things like tying bows, mass production of you product, wholesale... I can't say enuff!
