This book is written for Canadian market on how to start any business.Very few inrmation on gift basket business. The book is very small and it does not address to the the needs of USA market. There is no list of USA or Canadian suppliers. It will need a lot of imprevement in the next edition.

This book is a step by step process that will show you how to run a gift basket business. It gives you tons of addresses for supplies and shows. It talks about running your business in the US and Canada. There's lots of little things that made it worth buying. Things like tying bows, mass production of you product, wholesale... I can't say enuff!

I originally purchased this book to learn how to start a gift basket business. I already had some experience but needed the particulars. I found the particulars but wasn't impressed with the information. I felt that the book is biased toward those who have a fair amount of experience and are ambitious enough to undertake a store front, while home-based businesses are made to seem unprofessional. As a person looking to start a home-based business, I felt somewhat intimidated and insulted by the context in which the information was presented.

I am in the researching stage of my business and thought this book would help me. I was very dissapointed. This book lacks fun and excitement, which is what this business is truely about. Not much of a supplier list, no great marketing ideas, no visuals or basket building tips.

Just not very interesting.
