3.0 out of 5 stars More Business, Less Gift Basket Oriented, January 1, 2006
This review is from: Start and Run a Gift Basket Business (Paperback)
This book does contain some good information about starting your own business as a majority of the information in the book is generalized business information such as business planning, bookkeeping and general marketing. However, I bought this book looking for specific resource information about gift baskets: how to find wholesale suppliers and how to make and package gift baskets. While the author does use some general references about gift baskets, the information is sparse and I was disappointed in the book overall for anyone looking for specific information on gift baskets.
