T's Baskets

So recently ( within the last few years) I have discovered my unique ability to make these awesome customizable gift baskets. I really really love doing it and I am able to show my creativity! Plus its fun!!!

So with the support and encouragement of Rusty I have created : T's Baskets : Unique Hand-Crafted Gift Baskets. :clap::clap:

I am posting on here in hopes to get the word out beyond PA...

So please spread the word and visit my website to see the baskets I have already created. With the fast approaching Christmas holiday I am hoping to get some orders.

www.tgiftbaskets.vpweb.com ( keep in mind this is a new business so the site is still small)

P.S. any tips from those who already own a business are greatly appreciated!!!

:biggrin::biggrin: THANKS!!! :biggrin::biggrin:
 
Best of luck.
I would suggest the following.

See if your local paper will give you a "new business" story.

Limit charitable freebies to silent auctions where your baskets will get prime viewing.

Put flyers out where people spend money on stuff they don't need.
Please don't take offense here as I make my living selling products that people don't "need".

Keep good pics of every basket you do. Down the road these photos may come in handy to show your work to new customers also to remind you of past efforts that worked.
 
No offense taken... Totally agree..its a hard economy right now..People are not spending like they use too.

Nice set up. What are the prices like, in general. And what did you use to create your website.

Vista print for the website. I need to upgrade it but I figured to start off small till I get things going..

Price vary on size and type of basket.

Baskets generally start off at $30
 
Lithium, you might check with Doc if you change the webpage or the host. He has a web hosting business. Prices are very good, comparable to Vista's Standard package. But you design your own web page.
 
Newest Basket- My first request. Goes to its new owner tomorrow. A dog lovers basket.
