Who Created the Logo that Represents Your Gift Basket Business?

by Shirley George Frazier on May 22, 2012

A great-looking logo superbly represents your gift baskets whether you make them part time or full time.

The image tells a story that either gets people excited about buying from you, or it shows that your gift baskets are just okay and not anything special.

I made my first logo using the Paint accessory that’s available in every Windows-based computer. It was okay but not a spectacular moniker for my business. After a year I was tired of the amateurish representation and contracted a professional to create my logo which now sits atop the GiftBasketBusiness.com website and on my business cards.

Getting a professional to handle the job is one of the best investments I’ve made to enhance my reputation, and that’s why I encourage you, in Chapter three of the gift basket book, to also consider having a logo made that represents your business.

Within the chapter, titled Projecting Your Best Professional Image, you’ll find a list of online companies where the pros will bid on your logo project and create something very special just for you.

There may also be a graphic designer in your family who is willing to take on the project.

When do you plan to take your business up a notch through the creation of a professionally-styled logo?

What Makes Your Gift Baskets Stand Out?

March 27, 2012

Maybe it’s the way you make the bow, or perhaps it’s the tissue paper lined so perfectly around the inner basket. There’s something about the way you make gift baskets that acts as your trademark so every time a person sees your design, they say, “(Your name) made that!” People love giving and receiving gift [...]
