Finally! Gift Basket Classes

The Gourmet Gift Boutique is now offering gift basket workshops. Our workshops are an opportunity for you to tap into your own creativity while learning your craft from the most talented gift basket professionals in the industry.

The classes are structured to accommodate most schedules and budgets. Choose from group or private classes at your location or ours. We've designed each hands-on workshop to have a limited number of students so that our instructors can provide you with the one-on-one guidance you desire.

You can expect to learn new designs, refine your talent, and boost your confidence enough to become experimental, challenge, strengthen, and evolve your creativity. Call or email us to enroll. $100 reserves your space.

The Business Name

Choosing a business name is an exciting and important step. Before deciding on a name, determine your niche market, as well as, any other direction you may consider taking the company in the future. In other words, are you starting in your home with hopes of moving into a retail space?

In the gift basket industry, corporations remain the largest buyers of gift baskets. Consider a name that conveys credibility and strength of a company that can handle anything and will be around for years to come.

Paying Sales and Use Tax

After firing my CPA, I needed my monthly sales and use taxes prepared. I contacted another industry professional for a referral. During our conversation, she stated hers are filed and paid every quarter.

The process of paying taxes need to be addressed after you have registered with your city or state to sell gift baskets. Electing to pay taxes monthly or quarterly are options offered by local government agencies.

Consult a competent CPA or visit your State Department of Revenue's website for instructions on Sales and Use Tax preparation. Filing and paying taxes on time will prevent unwanted penalties later.
