3. Keep researching your type business and the creative products
4. Don’t copy others designs, think outside the box and design your own.

7. Access your business from time to time and make adjustments and incorporate updates
8. Don’t be afraid to talk with other gift basket owners, I’ve received much help, tips and advice from other gift baskets owners
9. Lastly…. Market, Market, Market… Advertise, Advertise, Advertise
10. Look for cheap ways to market and advertise… (Small businesses don’t have
the funds to waste, so look for less expensive ways to let the public know “Am In Business”
