1.0 out of 5 stars
Very disappointing,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Gift Basket Business: How to Make and Sell Gift Baskets (Spiral-bound)
I received this book today. It is not even a 1/4 inch thick, and the only things that are in color are the covers, which look like they were printed off a regular inkjet printer. The inside has references to the 'items highlighted in red', among other things, and the whole thing is done in black ink. The covers AND the insides are blurred in printing, and I was VERY disappointed, mostly since I received a different book yesterday for half the price and ten times the information, and very professional. This author is trying to sell you information on low cost baskets, but not because you find a good deal, but because you should shop at dented can stores and use hairdryers to remove labels. I recommend the book Start Your Own Gift Basket Service, by Jacquelyn Lynn, for ten stars. Lynn also includes websites, which this author does not do.

Not worth the money,
By A Customer
This review is from: Gift Basket Business: How to Make and Sell Gift Baskets (Spiral-bound)
This book is not worth the money. I just started doing research for my business and this book did not offer me one "common sense" thing I didn't already know. She talks more about opening legal clinics than about making gift baskets.The presentation of the book is embarrasing. There are mistakes everywhere including alot of text that was left out. Topics jump around. The pictures of gift baskets that are included are so grainy you cannot possibly learn how to do anything from them. Spend your money on something better!

By Loretta Crain (Duncan, Ok) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Gift Basket Business: How to Make and Sell Gift Baskets (Spiral-bound)
There were lots of ideas and information on where to get started, companies to work with, how to contact. It answered lots of questions that had formulated in my mind. Just a really good book to help you make that extra spending money.
