What is this?
A festival kit business saves buyers a shopping trip by putting one occasion into one ready-to-open package. Pick one occasion, such as Diwali or a baby shower, and one buyer. Research what people currently assemble themselves, choose only the essential contents, source small quantities, cost each kit fully and open small pre-orders. Selling five celebration kits before the date is your first win.
