How to Stay Positive While Starting a Gift Basket Business

From The Gift Basket Design Book, by Shirley George Frazier Launching a gift basket business is not for anyone who’s timid.

You’re both excited and nervous, asking yourself all types of questions:

How do I know this will work?

Who will be my first customer?

What will happen if I don’t succeed?

Why not create affirmative statements from these same questions?

I know this will work because I’ve done the research and know how to proceed, even if I make a few missteps along the way.

My first customer is closer than I think, and the sooner I begin telling everyone about my business, the faster she will come.

I am guaranteed success because I am fulfilling my dream of owning a business doing what I love every day of my life.

Designers who launched their businesses before you were also anxious and apprehensive, and today many of them earn six-figure incomes. That future is yours, too, if you focus on the good that can and will happen.

There’s no doubt that problems are part of your future. However, all of the trials that you mastered with designing and administrative work, along with in-person and/or online mentorship, are part of your success package.

Think positively, and you’ll reap the rewards that were waiting patiently for you to take this monumental step.
