Take & Makes
Prairie Friends and Flowers owner Lisa Fudge talked about her fun idea, Takes & Makes! Working with their wholesale vendor, they offer flower bundles for customers to purchase in their shop. Once purchased, customers get access to a how-to video that shows them how to create a beautiful bouquet from the bundle of flowers! It's a great way to work with your suppliers more closely and give your customers something fun to do with their friends or family in the comfort of their homes.

Social Media is your friend!Another florist favorite is utilizing social media! Many florists told us they are trying to post more on Facebook and Instagram, and a few even said they are trying new social media options, like TikTok and Instagram Reels. Social media is a free and amazing resource for all businesses, but florists have the upper hand in having a beautiful product! Use this time and try some new things, like doing a reel or a TikTok! You could even try doing a giveaway. It’s a great way to get more exposure for your business and potentially boost your following. Reel: TheFlowerCompanyabqDiscountsEveryone loves a good deal! Try offering a weekly special or discount on a specific product. It's a great way to generate urgency for people to shop with you right then. Plus, it helps you move flowers or stock that you might have too much of at that moment. It can also go a long way in creating goodwill between your business and customers, allowing them to remember you when they have floral needs in the future. |
