Why Fainting was My First Reaction

by Shirley George Frazier on July 13, 2009

there is a lot of work with a gift basket businessTo prepare to write a gift basket article, I asked a new designer why she decided to start a gift basket business. Her response was:

“Because I think working for myself will be easier.”

Is this what you believed before starting your business? My desire was to control my time, my freedom, and my life, but I had no mentor that gave me an in-depth look at what I was about to enter.

When I realized how many products I’d have to buy and how much storage room was needed to stock all of the baskets and supplies required for this labor-rich business, I nearly fainted.

You practically need a warehouse the size of a football field to organize everything if you truly want to be successful, but there are ways to streamline your buying to make sure you also create a rewarding lifestyle.

What was your first reaction when realizing the deph of this business?
