Many people I talk to want to send flowers, and yet aren't really sure what is appropriate or aren't sure what the person will like, etc. How do you decide what to send?
Most of us give things we would like to receive. Why not think about the person receiving them? Many of us don't really know their exact favorite flower or maybe not even their favorite color, and we might feel stuck in going 'safe' and getting a traditional design from a pick-from-a-number website.
Playing it safe gets you the 'thanks... this is nice...' phone call. Wouldn't you rather hear "Oh... Wow... I'm so excited! Thank you SO much! I can't believe how beautiful the flowers are!"
With just one or more clues from the following questions (or other ideas of what you know about the person), an experienced floral designer can make suggestions or even create a one-of-a-kind arrangement.
When you reflect something about the person in the gift, they feel more special!
They know it was selected just for them, and it goes straight to their heart, which is why you're sending the flowers anyway, right?
See for yourself the difference style makes: Here is Karin showing the same flowers styled three different ways on one of her appearances on Channel 3's Your Life Arizona.
Here are some 4 Tips and 4 Questions to get your started:
When we know the answers to one or more of these questions, we can help direct you to a design with just the right flowers for the person and the season. Many of our clients who know us also let us take it from there and use our creative talents to delight and impress their friends, colleagues and family.
Give this process a try and see if you don't get the response Lynne did when her friend called her moments after receiving the flowers, raving and saying of all the flowers she received on that special day, Lynne's gift was The Best!
