This month I notice that wholesalers are offering lots of special pricing on new and familiar gift basket products.

How many of these specials have you ordered, or are you not aware of what’s available?

Set aside a few minutes of time this week to visit your favorite online wholesale Web sites. You’ll find a tab, usually in the left column, that leads you to a clearance or specials category labeled with those or similar words.

Everything won’t be of interest, but there are lots of opportunities to save money now so that your profits are higher this year.

From there, follow my advice on this 15-minute talk about selling to the corporate market, which you can access by pressing the play button below.

If you can take advantage of sale prices now, you’ll reap big rewards this holiday season.

A winning plan to increase your gift baskets sales won’t fall from the sky. You must be committed to follow a solid, well-organized action plan that you either write yourself or get help to write from outside sources.

Joining a local gift basket group can be helpful, a topic that’s raised in this article about creating a mastermind group.

But what if you’re not a mastermind member or have a gift basket group near you? If that’s the case, here’s three ways to get your plan crafted for action.

1. Write down the results you want first, then work backwards to set the objectives.

2. Broaden your pool of potential clients. If one real estate firm is your customer, contact other industry participants.

3. Check your budget, making sure that you have enough money to start and follow up on every aspect of your plan.

Putting your plan on paper and creating action steps will increase your corporate gift basket sales quicker than simply wishing and hoping that your business turns around.
