When I started this blog, I said that periodically I would be featuring other businesses whose owners are Creative Entrepreneurs. The first in this series is Creative Idea Shop, located in Southern California, and its owner Susan Placek.
Susan, a master pastry chef and artist, retired from cakes and pastries after 20 years in the business and started her own business. Combining her artistic talents with a love of vintage things, she has created a series of products that can be used for personal celebrations and for marketing your business.
Beginning with a series of custom covers for packages of miscrowave popcorn covers (she now has over 200 designs to choose from and can create your own custom design) in 2006, she has added mouse pads, calendars, and a series that she calls “small treasures”. Her newest addition “goody purses” are truly unique and different and makes a marketing tool or addition to your gift basket that will be “oooed and ahhhed” over. If you do regional gift baskets or want something really different to market your local area, her state/regional themed vintage postcard popcorn covers are perfect.
Visit her website at http://www.popcorngreetings.com and check out all she has to offer. The pricing shown on the website is retail. If you are a business (and most of my readers are) wholesale pricing is available.
Susan Placek is another “Creative Gift Entrepreneur”!
