Follow those tips and you will be ready to offer a special little something extra for your customers! And get creative — handmade wrapping paper, crocheted ribbon, and sewn fabric bags are all great handmade alternatives to store-bought wrapping paper.
This is the last real week to make it work! These tips should help with those last minute holiday sales. Next week we'll wrap up with some exercises to help analyze our progress and get us in gear for 2011. And as always, let me know if you need help in this week's boot camp forum thread.
