Floral Business Consulting
One-on-one help with the practical side of running your floral business.
Why One-on-One Consulting?
We work on what’s happening in your business right now. One session might be about pricing. The next could be a difficult client, bookkeeping, staffing, or a decision you’ve been putting off. We deal with whatever comes up, when it comes up.
You can ask the questions you actually want answered. That includes the ones you feel like you “should” already know. It’s a private conversation, so there’s no group to keep up with and no reason to skip a question because you’d rather not ask it in front of other people.
We have room to follow a question wherever it goes. After 30 years in the floral business, I have a lot of processes, workarounds, and useful information stored in my brain. A simple question can lead to several related ones, and in a one-on-one session we have time to chase those squirrels.
All sessions are by phone or video, so we can work together wherever you’re located.

-
Tell me what’s going on in your business, what you need help with, and what you’d like to change. We’ll talk it through and see whether working together makes sense.
-
Have a specific question, problem, or decision you want help with? Book a one- or two-hour session and we’ll work through it together.
-
If you want ongoing help, we can set up a recurring time to meet. The hourly rate stays the same, and we can meet weekly, every other week, monthly, or on whatever schedule makes sense for you.
There’s no long-term contract and no large package to buy upfront. You pay for the sessions you schedule.
Ways to Work Together
If you’re not sure which approach makes the most sense for you, we can figure that out together during the intro call.
What can we work on?
Bring me the part of the business that needs attention the most. We can talk through a decision, sort out a problem, or get hands-on and put something in place.
Some of the things we can work on together:
Pricing and quoting
Scheduling and planning for busy seasons
Staffing and employee questions
Difficult client situations
Point of Sale and other business software
Bookkeeping routines and organization
Spreadsheets, databases, and other business systems
Planning through a decision or problem
If it has to do with running your floral business, bring it to me.
-
I charge the same hourly rate for everything we do. If I’m doing work for you outside of our meetings, such as setting up software or building a spreadsheet or database, I’ll give you an estimate before I start.
-
No. You’ll sign an agreement before we begin working together, but you aren’t committing to a long-term package. If you meet with me regularly, we can set up recurring payments and reserve a regular time on the calendar. You can pause or cancel the ongoing arrangement if you need to.
-
You can contact me through the website or by email. I usually respond within one business day.
-
I work with florists at all stages.
-
Yes, I can set things up for you. I charge by the hour for these services.
-
Not for completed sessions. But if you need to cancel upcoming sessions, we’ll stop any auto payments you have set up.
-
Getting started is simple. Reach out through our contact form or schedule an intro call, during which we’ll discuss options and create a plan that’s right for you.
