There are plenty of ideas and situations that enter your mind as possibilities to launch or grow your gift basket business.
Lots of those thoughts receive a “no” response right away, but which ones get an immediate “yes?”
I find my mind telling me not to move forward on an endeavor or project for very strange reasons, strange because the reason simply isn’t true.
You’ll fail.
It won’t work.
You’ll waste time.
If your mind tells you the same, why not silence those thoughts and try the idea on a small scale which can create a huge, positive impact on your business? For example, when these non truths come to mind, I tell myself:
This is a great idea.
You’ll learn what you didn’t know.
Your money will be spent wisely.
Had I not taken action to connect with local media, my photograph would not have been featured on the front page of a newspaper, which you see in the above picture.
Some designers I mentor in the Golden Basket Club are experiencing growing pains, and they’re taking positive steps that are increasing profits each month.
What projects have you stopped before starting just because you refuse to take a chance? Starting your business was a big chance, and you succeeded. Take another step. Quiet the voices, take action, and next month you’ll reap big rewards.

There’s no way you can possibly meet every individual or corporate executive with the strongest potential for gift basket buying. The world doesn’t work that way.
