A person who comes to the door to receive your carefully-made gift basket never pouts. You’ll always see a smile on her face, even if the occasion is not joyous.

It proves, without a doubt, that gift baskets and emotion are permanently connected, and this angle is critically important when planning your themes and marketing.

If you’re planning on an avalanche of sales in 2009, finish the following tasks before the New Year’s ball drops in New York’s Times Square.

1. List the phrases you remember hearing from customers or recipients when they see the gift basket for the first time or express satisfaction by phone when re-ordering.

These phrases provide clues on how to position your marketing messages.

2. Decide which customer sentences about your wonderful presentation, service, or delivery will be added to each page of your Web site. Then add it as quickly as possible.

Comments and feedback turn fence sitters into buyers.

3. Plan a series of literature, sent by Email and traditional mail, that keeps your name and product visible every month.

When customers frequently see your name, they finally get the connection and order from you every time an occasion calls for gifts and baskets.
