FROM FLOWERS TO BOUQUETS
"Five years ago, I opened a website for my flower shop "Fiori" and I believe that it has helped me a lot to become the number one flower shop in town for all occasions. We don't lack work, but my ambitions have always been a little bigger," Laura tells us honestly. She wanted her meticulously arranged bouquets to be enjoyed by residents of the whole country. Although her flower shop had very good income, opening new locations and hiring new employees was out of the question. "For me, a successful but sill a small entrepreneur, these were, simply, too high costs." She decided to upgrade her website by adding a web shop through which clients from any part of the country can order their flower bouquets. "Apart from ready-made bouquets, I also wanted to keep the possibility that we offer in the physical branch, which is the creation of bouquets as desired. Customers choose the desired type and quantity of flowers, decorations, and colours of ribbons, while the price of the created bouquet is automatically calculated on the page".
By ordering through the web shop, ready-made bouquets can be delivered to the desired address the next day, and bouquets on request in two days. When choosing a bouquet in the web shop, there is also a form for a personalized message so that clients can write whatever they want to their loved ones. "Personalized messages have always been in great demand, so we definitely wanted to keep that addition in the online version as well." When she saw how business through the web shop flourished, Laura was given room to increase her offer and so now, in addition to classic bouquets, she also offers gift packages for corporations, such as "Packages of flowers, wine and chocolates". "Doing good business, opened the possibility to expand the offer and now we cooperate with many of our companies, especially towards the end of the year when it's time for Christmas gifts that corporations send to their clients," Laura said proudly.
By thinking outside the box and weighing future costs, she managed to become the most famous flower shop in the country from a small entrepreneur.
