My flowering business relationships
Selling to Bloom and Bar CO
Knowing people is important: i’m sorry but you can’t do it alone, talking to people at farmer’s markets, through social media, or finding local shops is imperative to building a relationship where money can be exchanged
Keeping the flowers healthy: From the moment the flowers are cut they are cleaned and stored in a bucket container filled with water, as well as transported into a climate controlled area (refrigerator, room with good A/C climate control). This is important because when selling to a business appearance is everything, you can see how the listings on Bloom & Bar appear on their website. The flowers need to look amazing.
Growing what is needed: Flowering as a business can be difficult if you don’t know what sells and why. For example say a shop want ranunculus but you grew tulips, well this is likely explainable by the timing, prom season will sell different types of flowers for corsages than bulb season. This is simply supply and demand.
Word of mouth
Sometimes you need to just do it. I was so scared before providing flowers for my first wedding, which I did free of charge since I was so nervous. However, if I would’ve never taken the step I wouldn’t have found customers through word of mouth advertisement…
For private events and making my own bouquets and such. The success I have is much more on myself and my flowers. This is much different than selling to a flower shop, it’s all in my hands… literally. Sink or swim!
It’s easy when you like your customers
Most of the people I’ve provided flowers for are family friends or their children. This is perfect because it allows better communication and a great opportunity to catch with the clients. I also don’t take on clients I don’t like, as my business is so small, I don’t have time for rude clients
Social Media Boosts
Starting with a small base of people allows you to have a dedicated amount of fans who will follow your work. This is perfect for getting started. Hopefully I will get customers from social media (this blog, instagram, and my website) in the future!
