Professional Gift Wrapping Service - Thoughts?

[MamaOfWobbles]

I'm thinking of starting a little business to earn a little money whilst my little one is young and I'd really appreciate your thoughts/ comments.

I'm thinking about starting a local gift wrapping business and the questions I have at the moment are listed below.

Do you feel you would use this service?

If yes, would you prefer to pay by number/ size of presents or by the hour?

Would you prefer to provide your own wrapping paper, have a choice/ styles to choose from/ or a mixture of both?

Would you want to travel to my home/ have me come to yours/ drop and either collect or have them delivered back to you/ or have me collect and deliver back?

Would you be interested in different levels of wrapping service styles - ie. bronze, silver, gold

Labels - would you want to provide/ write your own, have professional ones provide but you write, provided and written on/ or given the option? How much extra would you pay for labels?

What sort of turnaround time would you expect/ would you pay extra for priority wrapping?

Should I consider offering themed wrapping - ie. nature/ Christmas/ Easter?

Anything else I should think about/ comments?

I honestly don't mind good or bad! Thank you

I love that fabric wrapping idea but it would only work for rectangles? I'm going to look into it a bit more because I love the idea of reusing the wrapping.

Wrapping paper is on the way out. Maybe we could come up with something else for you to do? The labels idea might be a runner, personalised labels? I'd buy them.

Sorry, I also wouldn’t use it for most of the reasons above.

Could you sew reusable cloth present bags instead? Maybe if they were embroidered or somehow customised (fabric etc) you might be able to take advantage of the eco consumer demographic.
