Flowers – permanent satellites of the most significant events of our lives. The birth of a child, a declaration of love, a wedding, graduation, almost one event mentioned above, does without beautiful bouquets. Gathered in wonderful compositions with the skillful hands of the florists, flowers not only delight the imagination, they focus on the feelings of the donor, know the history of relations all around. It is difficult to imagine a more aesthetic thing than a floral business.
In addition, the flower business is not only profitable, but also does not have such pronounced seasonal fluctuations as a tourist business, for example, or rural business. Throughout the year, people make marriages, go to each other for birthdays, meet after prolonged separation. And there are positive seasonal fluctuations – for example, International Women’s Day. March 7 and 8 can be earned on flowers for the whole year in advance!
Wanting to organize your own floral business, first of all it is worth completing the relevant flowering courses and get accreditation as a professional florist. You can be endlessly talented, have a light hand and an exquisite taste, but it is better to reinforce all your advantages with official paper.
It would be nice to make a business plan-to outline the stages of development of your business, determine who can become your potential customers, establish the amount of initial capital. Do not be scared, it is not difficult at all, any business plan viewed presentation will give you the necessary guidelines.
As soon as the necessary papers and skills are obtained, the workshop’s business plan is compiled, your path lies directly on the website of the local administration-there you will find valuable information about which licenses and permits are necessary and where they can be taken.
Along the way, with the design of proper papers, it is worthwhile to take up a suitable place. Most often, traditional flower shops are located in the city center on pedestrian streets with a fairly lively movement. However, if you plan to engage exclusively with the design of bouquets and floral arrangements for all kinds of events and you already have a client base, you can choose a more secluded place. A spacious studio on the outskirts of the city is perfect, in this case, even a business in the garage, an acceptable option. The main thing is that there is a place for the implementation of large -scale projects.
As soon as all these stages have been passed, you can only create, delight yourself, people around you and receive money for it. Well, what’s not a fairy tale?!
