Start Your Own Gift Basket Business (Start Your Own Business)
Amazon: “This book discussed the specific business of gift baskets very infrequently and was extremely outdated. There was no mention of the internet whatsoever and the use of a computer was virtually non-existent as well. It would have been nice to know how to set up inventory and manage bookkeeping through Excel, for example. I agree with the first review also–there was no information on exactly what labor and products are needed to put together a gift basket (other than the obvious gifts and basket). The title of this book should be “Start Your Own Fill-in-the-Blank”.”

I agree with Erna, a gift basket site is crucial to the gift basket industry. Check out your local trade shows once you have registered with your city for a business license. Be sure to get a tax id number from your state and then you can start buying wholesale. Wholesale companies are really easy to find at the trade shows and if you like a specific companies products you can contact them and tell them you want to buy their products wholesale. Seriously I don’t believe a book can tell you any info that you cannot find for free on the internet.
