  We got to chat about being a florist with integrity and getting to know what it entails to be a florist that offers more than middle of the road service. I really think this is a good episode, for sure if you're maybe newer to the floral industry. There is standard pricing and no, it's not a myth or just order whatever...it's part of running a business and keeping in business. We may not have the glam life, but we have something special, and we work damn hard for it. I throughly enjoyed this chat with Alison. I hope you will too. Alison has numerous ways to help you out:Email templates, workflows, proposal writing, pricing, contract help, A full flower math course and a business course called The Art of Good Business!!!and she has free content you can try on for size too:Try A Free Course:Flower Boss. A Free Training To Move Your Business Forward. Free!In this free course florists get insights into how I set a minimum on weddings, how to book more weddings more quickly, how to get paid, how to handle customer complaints, how to answer the question “Are these flowers expensive?”, the importance of valuing your work as well as the worst business advice I ever took! Get it here.Pricing Mistakes Florists Make.
