Start and Run a Gift Basket Business |

This was quite helpful, had other ideas,tips and advise that my other 2 books did not have. |

More Business, Less Gift Basket Oriented |
|
This book does contain some good information about starting your own business as a majority of the information in the book is generalized business information such as business planning, bookkeeping and general marketing. However, I bought this book looking for specific resource information about gift baskets: how to find wholesale suppliers and how to make and package gift baskets. While the author does use some general references about gift baskets, the information is sparse and I was disappointed in the book overall for anyone looking for specific information on gift baskets. |

A great foundation for your Gift Basket Business |
This book has been most helpful to me since I am gathering information to join a self employment program (in the gift basket industry).
The information given in the book it is very clear and easily understood, with many examples, ideas and lots of helpful and important information.
I definitely recommend this book to individuals that are considering having their own gift basket business |
