Are you interested in a career in the floral industry?
As a young kid, I always dreamed of becoming a florist. My young, entrepreneurial spirit was brought to life at the thought of working with flowers for a living. Three years ago, I took a jump and started what is now known as Fleur. My dream became reality.
As a successful flower shop owner, I understand the challenges that come with starting and growing a business in the floral industry. It felt intimidating, overwhelming, and so far beyond my individual capacity. I created this course to share my knowledge and experience with aspiring entrepreneurs who are passionate about flowers and want to turn their love for floral design into a profitable business. In this course, you will learn everything you need to know in the early stages. From creating a specific business plan and securing funding to sourcing and arranging, marketing, and managing day-to-day operations. I am so beyond excited to share my expertise with you and help you turn your dream of owning a flower shop into a reality. Let's get started!
As a successful flower shop owner, I understand the challenges that come with starting and growing a business in the floral industry. I created this course to share my knowledge and experience with aspiring entrepreneurs who are passionate about flowers and want to turn their love for floral design into a profitable business.
I was 19 years old, and still in college when I started Fleur. I had always been passionate about flowers & had a natural talent for floral design, but I never dreamed of actually taking on a business like this. I started creating floral arrangements for friends and family and one night realized that I could turn my hobby into a profitable business.
My first event was a huge success, and I fulfilled 90 orders in a single day. From that moment on, I started receiving countless requests for weddings, pop-ups, and deliveries.
As Fleur continues to grow, I realized that many people shared my dream of starting a flower business, but just didn't know where to start. I hope this course helps you take hold of all those dreams you have toward being a "Floral Entrepreneur."
