GIFT BASKET
CASE
STUDY:
Most
Odd Custom
Gift Requests
We love
filling
every gift-giving whim!
Nevertheless, sometimes the word 'custom' needs to be
reinterpreted...
Here are our
most peculiar gift requests (in no particular
order):
Horses
Marine Life
Cars
(try to make a basket around
that!)
Include a big ham
(for sanitary reasons, we may have
to pass!)
Two bottles of wine and some gourmet
food; budget $25
(we might need to increase that budget a
bit)
Pink Fluffy
Slippers
(these were for the
male stars of the film Shall We Dance,
after those long rehearsal days!)
Being a gift maker extraordinaire is
tough work!
That being said, no request is too
odd...if we can't make it work exactly as asked, we'll come up
with something even better!
(Fuchsia French cotton slippers, Richard
Gere?)
We always
have
the perfect gift
solution!

PLEASE MEET
OUR FABULOUS
CALGARY FRANCHISEE... |
 |
This woman has it
all...beautiful son, adorable husband (who baked that cake
from scratch!) and a fabulous career!
Yes, Heather Broad was
another fabulous 'find' for 2B&B. With an infectious
laugh, a quick wit, and a drive to succeed, she is
unforgettable (as are her gifts)!
Whether driving
around in her limited edition glow-in-the-dark VW Bug (we kid
you not) - complete with 2B&B car decals no less
- this is a gift gal to be reckoned with!
Here
are her thoughts on joining the 2B&B
family...
What was your
career and education prior to
2B&B?
"Advanced B.A.
in Psychology and an Event Management Certificate,
but for some reason ended up working as a legal
assistant for 12 years! Proud to say
I did work for a top-tier international law firm!"
Can you tell us about your
family?
"Been married
to my wonderful husband (who I met on a blind date set up by
one of my best friends) for 9 years. Have
a gorgeous and very charismatic little boy who will
be 2 in February. Born and raised in
Regina."
What appealed
to you about joining 2B&B?
"Having my own business that was creative and
fun. The flexibility and work/life balance
2B&B offered...thus still being out in the workforce
but also being able to stay at home and watch my son grow
up. A win-win all
around!"
What is your goal with 2B&B in your
community?
"To grow my business and become THE gift and
gift basket provider in Calgary. With all our
stylish & chic gift options, how can I not
be?"
What are your favorite 2B&B
products?
"I seriously cannot narrow it down to one
item. They are all so awesome!!!
As a self-proclaimed chocoholic, I love the
eclectic dragee mix from The Cocoa Room. I actually
don't care for sunflower seeds on their own, but absolutely
love them chocolate candy covered! I could eat
buckets full!
Favorite bath & body product has to be
the Nutmeg & Ginger body care line. I love rich
and warm spicy smells and this fits the bill - it's such
a gorgeous scent. I can't help but sneak
sniffs of it. In fact, I am taking a big whiff right
now! Ahhhhh, bliss."
THANK YOU
HEATHER!!!!
(We want to see a photo of that car next time...does it
really glow in the dark?!)

The only animals injured in making this
basket were our taste testers, fighting over every last
delicious morsel.
But seriously,
if this basket looks familiar
to you, it's because, yes, we featured it at Christmas
under the alias
'Chestnut'
But look how beautiful it is!
How could we possibly discard it and move
on?!
No ladies and gents, it is here
to stay under
the guise of
'Gwyneth'
