I will appreciate all feedback as this is a business I am strongly thinking about doing. Thank you
Has anyone ever ran a gift basket business or knows anything about the business?
To be honest i have been doing this type of business myself for a couple of months now but i am still learning, there is always a way to make things better but i have to tell you about a website i have found that explains everything you will ever need to know from buying stock to selling your baskets this is the only site you will need and it is all explained to you in easy to follow instructions.
Just click on the link below.
Reply:I didn't run the business, but I was an employee of a company that recently went down because the market got so slow. It costs a lot of money to keep one of these companies going. You got to but the baskets, ribbons, wrap, and contents all at a cost low enough that when you add in your 30 percent mark-up and your delivery fee and pay any employees that you might have, you still make a profit. But it is a fun and rewarding business. How fun and exciting it is knowing that you are responsible for bringing joy to people on a bad day or a when they're sick or on a wedding or graduation day. Our company also picked up the local car dealerships and made baskets for everyone who bought a car from them. Also, we made baskets for local charities to auction off. There are a LOT of things that a basket company can do to get business, but there just wasn't enough of that going on where I live, so we stopped. The owner is still making them by herself though.
