Did you miss the "Intrigue Across America" Tour? Do you want to learn all of these business changing techniques that I taught this year on this EPIC national tour without having to travel?  In January I am teaching this class LIVE and On-Line. No need to travel or even change out of your yoga pants. The best way to start off the year is to get your business focused and what better way to do this than through a full day of business focused education.

This is the SAME class I have been teaching this year on the tour with RAVE REVIEWS!

VIRTUAL CLASS DETAILS:

This workshop is in response to those of you looking for business education that focuses specifically on our unique wedding floral industry.  We are creatives, however, what we experience in the course of running our businesses is much different than the average creative.  We work with a perishable product in a fast paced environment that requires organization, patience and a lot more than just luck. If you are looking to start your floral business or feel that you started without a firm structure this event is for you.  This is a floral workshop, but, we will not be touching flowers.  This is all about business with focus on processes and procedures to help maximize profitability and ease the stress through organization. We are in this business because we love it and in order to stay in business we need to generate income that excites us.

 A comfortable income and emotional state is not only attainable, but, expected in this line of work. This industry is far too difficult to settle for anything less. I also know that if you are like I was when I started, funding is tight in the beginning and although you want to dream big it is hard to come up with big dollars to invest in education.  So, I have trimmed out all the fluff and created an event that truly is business focused with the intent of propelling your business to the next financial level.  In doing so I have condensed out 2 day class to maximize our time together.

When developing this class I thought of the struggles that plagued my early years as a Wedding Florist. I thought of the money I wasted advertising in the wrong places. I thought of the challenge that came with pricing and the painful memories of all those weddings that I under-priced and lost money on. I thought of the overwhelming anxiety that overtook me every week as I struggled to find staff for my weddings. I remembered the loneliness I felt not knowing who to turn to for support and having to figure out my business strategy all alone.  There was no one around me that was open to helping. I was on my own and it was hard. I want to help with these struggles and relieve the stress that running your floral business has created. I want you and your business to be running so smoothly you can spend your time doing what you LOVE! Doing what you want to be doing creating beautiful floral designs. I want to alleviate your struggle with running a financially and emotionally successful business.  You are not ALONE!
