I purchased several other "how to" start a gift-basket business books and this is by far the most comprehensive instruction book. Frazier assumes her readership base is educated and has considered all of the common sense factors regarding the start-up phase of a gift basket business. The appendix lists several valuable sources such as trade shows, magazines, and wholesale product suppliers. I also read Prentice Hall's "Start Your Own Gift Basket Business" . . . this was a complete waste of money. Best bet is Frazier's book along with her "Gift Basket Design Book". -Roxanne Ocampo Was this review helpful to you? ( Report this ) 10 of 10 people found the following review helpful: Good Business Information , April 8, 2004 Reviewer: "private_storm" (Aldie, VA USA) - See all my reviews Anyone will tell you that starting a business is a lot of preparation before getting into the acutal running of the company. This book focuses on that important fact. Any business that deals with a product to a customer should have insurance. Some people may choose this business because they think that it is inexpensive and easy to sell your product, and yes it can be that if you work hard at it but the business information presented in this book is what will help save you from yourself and lack of knowledge about running a business. While it may seem improbable that someone could sue you for food poisoning because a product you sold them made them sick, it becomes very real when you are about to lose your house and all your possessions because you were not insured. Small business insurance is probably the most important thing that someone should have if they are a sole propiertorship. This may not be good news to someone who is looking to start a business on a limited budget but it a necessity. I was impressed with all the business information that was included in this book because a lot of home based business books skip over that section and instead focus on the product. If you have the idea than you already have the product, the rest is implementation. Get this book if you have ideas but not aware of how to run a business. Was this review helpful to you?

It is such an easy read and it really takes you step by step on how to start in this business. I began reading it not to long ago, and I can't wait to start my business.

( Report this ) 5 of 5 people found the following review helpful: Absolutely Fabulous - a MUST HAVE! , February 12, 2004 Reviewer: Sara Wilson (Washington, DC) - See all my reviews This book is by far the best handbook written about running a gift basket business. I've owned a gift basket business for one year and was looking for new marketing ideas, so I purchased several gift basket business books from Amazon. This book stood out from the rest because it includes TONS of marketing ideas and tells you who to contact at various types of businesses/potential markets. I am really impressed! The ideas in this book really work and have encouraged me to get even more organized and focused in my marketing. If you are interested in learning more about my gift basket company, go to www.BasketAct.com. I strongly suggest this book for any and all gift basket makers, whether they've been in the business for years or are just starting out. Was this review helpful to you?

The book gives you ideas and a methodology to follow to start and set up your own gift basket business. This book is great because it details things to check out to protect yourself legally such as health food regulations and permits that you may require. I would have never thought of these things myself since all i focus on is creating my gift baskets Many people are very passionate about the creative side of gift baskets, however it is the business side that gets your great gift baskets to the customers hands and this book tells you how to do it. It does go through the basics of putting together a gift basket with black and white hand drawn pictures. It may be disappointing to people looking how to create unusual gift baskets or ideas for new gift baskets - but as it states on the title "gift basket BUSINESS". Was this review helpful to you? ( Report this ) 4 of 4 people found the following review helpful: I was dissapointed... , January 5, 2004 Reviewer: A reader I was really excited to get this book; but I found that it was really not for beginners. She talks about getting attorneys accountants employees, etc, etc, while skipping the part of how you actually get up to the point where you can actually afford to do that. I found the information very generalized, and somewhat ellusive. I got this book, because I wanted to know how to start a gift-basket business. Yet the information seemed to skirt around the topic rather than addressing it head on. This book seems best suited to someone who has ran a business before, has a degree in business, or has abundant financial resources to tap in on. I was not impressed with it. I wish I had bought a different book on the same topic. Thanks. Was this review helpful to you? ( Report this ) See all 35 customer reviews... Listmania!

Figure A Figure B Figure C Figure D Figure E Figure F Figure G Figure H Figure I Figure J Figure K Figure L Have you ever wanted to make gift-wrap yourself to match the colors and design of the gift you're giving? Debbie Stapley, host of HGTV's Crafts and Company , shows how to make unique, inexpensive wrapping paper. Dyed Tissue Paper Materials: Tissue paper (or paper towels, rice paper) Food coloring Bowls Water Measuring spoons Place 2 tablespoons of water in each of three bowls. Squeeze two generous squirts of a different food coloring into each bowl. Swirl to mix the water and food coloring. Fold a piece of tissue paper in half. Then fold it in half again, creating quarters. Fold the quartered paper diagonally twice ( figure A ). Then fold the center corner at right angles to the rest of the paper ( figure B ). Or fold the paper accordion style ( figure C ). Fold the two smaller ends at right angles to create corners ( figure D ). Dip each of the corners into a different food-color-and-water mixture ( figure E ). Carefully unfold the tissue paper: it's fragile when wet. Hang it up to dry. Wrap a package with the tissue paper. The designs will be brightly colored and random ( figure F ). Tip: Use white tissue paper to get truer colors in the design ( figure G ). Decorated Brown-Paper Bags Materials: Brown-paper grocery bag Paper-backed iron-on adhesive Fabric Pattern from a coloring book or drawn freehand Paper Pencil Scissors Iron Dimensional paint Rickrack, ribbon or raffia Tissue paper Select a pattern from a coloring book, or draw a design freehand. Debbie used a star. Cut out a paper pattern of the desired design. Trace the design onto the paper-backed iron-on adhesive. Cut out the design. Iron the adhesive design onto the back of the fabric. Cut out. Peel the backing away from the adhesive, and iron the fabric design to the front of a paper bag. Outline the design with dimensional paint. Tie rickrack or ribbon around the top of the paper bag to gather. Stuff tissue paper inside the bag ( figure H ). Here are some other looks: Select fabric with a design, cut out one of the motifs, and glue it onto the bag. Tie raffia around the top of the bag. Stuff the inside of the bag with tissue paper and more raffia ( figure I ). Wrap a package with a map. Cut narrow strips from the map paper. Tie grosgrain ribbon around the center of a bunch of the strips, and tie them to the top of the package. Create a curly bow from map strips by pulling the blade of a scissors under each strip. Leave some of the strips straight for variety. Make loops from the ribbon ends, and hot-glue them to the top of the package ( figure J ). Tie nylon tulle around a package instead of ribbon. Wrap a package in colorful comics from the Sunday newspaper. Cut wavy strips from solid-color gift-wrap to tape around the package in place of ribbon ( figure K ). Rubber-stamp plain brown paper, and wrap the package. Tie on a colorful bow ( figure L ). Glue doilies onto solid-color gift-wrapping paper. Tie a colorful scarf around a gift box, and knot the ends together. Punch decorative shapes in a brown-paper bag. Stuff it with colorful tissue paper that can be seen through the punched holes.
