Deep dives
The Viability of a Christmas Tree Concierge Business
A Christmas tree concierge business concept is proposed, which involves purchasing permits to cut down trees and delivering them to customers. While it could serve as a cheaper alternative to buying pre-cut trees from large retailers, there are doubts about the idea's market potential. The experience of traveling to cut down a tree is a significant part of the holiday tradition for many families, which might lessen the appeal of a delivery service. Nevertheless, with effective execution and a strategic approach to marketing, this concept could tap into a niche market looking for convenience.
