Best Money Making Ideas

Office Bouquets

Aren’t you more impressed when you walk into an office or business when there are a bouquet of fresh flowers there? I am. It just makes the room feel more professional and inviting to me. Maybe because they took the time and spent the money to make sure there are always fresh flowers in the room. It says that the establishment wants a good image.

You could offer to furnish businesses with fresh flowers on a regular basis. This would ensure that your customers have a fresh bouquet all the time. Buy the flowers in bulk and deliver them either in person or by mail. As long as you live in a well-populated area, you have potential customers. All types of business offices and even the residential areas would benefit from your service. But even if you live a little more of the beaten path, that doesn’t have to stop you. If you have close access to fresh flowers in your area, you could offer a fresh bouquet by mail to offices that would like them.

Only buy the flowers that your customers want. Remember to find out if they have certain preferences or dislikes when they sign up as new customers. You want them to be happy with your choices for them. Always encourage communication with them too, to find out if they are happy with your services. Sometimes you will have to be careful of certain flowers that can cause allergic reactions in people. You will know this buy their customized subscription!

You can charge an average of $20 per bouquet. That will go especially for customers who just want to try out your service before committing to a subscription. Make sure that you will be able to provide a modest and attractive bouquet for this amount and still make a small profit. Don’t forget to figure in your delivery cost in the overall cost.

These will make great gifts, too! Usually subscription services are on a monthly basis, but with flowers and their short life span once picked, you will offer a weekly subscription base most of the time. For those customers that would like to send flowers to someone regularly as a gift, monthly might be just right for him or her.

If you love working with flowers this could be a fun and enjoyable business idea for you!
