Welcome to the The Profitable Florist series. You have most likely visited this site because your shop is not performing very well and you are looking for guidence and answers . Are you looking for increased profitability. You need look no further !!
Welcome to the Florist Doctor Consultancy. Firstly let me say that you are most definately not alone. You are in good company of many florists who visit this site. The current economy has affected everyone from the corner shop to the order gatherers, so its highly unlikely that you visited this site by accident.
Are you suffering from lethargy, an unwillingness to want to go to work, strained relationships, increased health issues, even depression. Guess what !! - these are all classic symptoms of running a business that is not going well.
So why is it that Florists are having a real rough ride in todays economy.
Well, firstly lets not kid ourselves into believing that we can weather the storm and things will get better in the next year or two. If we continue to do the business style that we have always done - then guess what, you will get the same results as before.
We have all just completed another mothers day, and whilst we all dreaded the preparation and anxiety over whether it will happen or not - It did happen and it was pretty big as usual. Even brought back the memories of business that we all used to enjoy on a more regular basis.
However, the business has changed and it will never be the same again. Period !! We have entered the feast or famine era. Notably, we are chasing less orders. Notably, florist to florist wire orders are way down. Notably, the dot com $39.95 'all in' orders are way up in volume. Notably, the internet is now a major player.
Do not expect to improve your situation by hoping for the best. Todays business is a smaller pie than it used to be, and this is the new normal. Don't expect it to improve with time. - It will not.
You have to make the changes, if you are going to get a better result
However, it is not all doom and gloom for those who seek help, and are willing to take the bull by the horns and 'be a business' instead of 'just doing the business', as so many florists are inclined to do
.
The retail florist can still be a great business to be in, both profitable and rewarding, but you have got to do it right !!
The Florist Doctor Consultancy has been around for a long time, and his method of' being a business' and not 'just doing the business' has proved many times over that the retail florist can flourish and be successful and profitable, even in todays new 'norm' business levels.
Guess what !! - Be a florist in the right way and you will once again begin to enjoy the business again, without all the anxiety and pressure that takes such a mental toll on our health.
There is a good future ahead for those that get it right - I hope that you will be one of them.
Sooner or later we will come to realise that todays level of business is the new normal, and we need to adapt if we are going to survive and be profitable. - My series is all about doing just that.
There are 6 fundamental areas, that if understood together, will make a very happy florist. You will see these 6 chapters on the left hand side of this web page, in the margin, starting with setting prices.
View each of the six 30 minute videos to see how to do it right !! If you start putting into practise all that you see and hear then you will start to see immediate results, and remember that we are going to be working with the business that you already have or expect to have, and not some pie in the sky wishful thinking business that others tout for. I deal in the real world only !!
The principal of "being a business" and not "just doing business" is a well tried and proven method that I have developed over many years, and it is guaranteed to work for you too.
You will also gain valuable insight into areas that you once took for granted, or at worst never even considered at all. Topics such as price conditioning, telephone sales, and understanding the wire services are discussed in detail.
My success can be your success as well - trust me !
