I once had a bride that was so stressed about her wedding. She would call all the time and was stressing about every aspect of the flowers.

I then received a beautiful letter of thanks and appreciation and also got a referral from one of her friends.

Why should a customer hire you over another service provider?

Accepted Answer

I use my creative flare to give you want you want. I also try to give you want you are looking for by detailed consultations and quotes so you know exactly what you are getting.

Question 8

What are the typical things that you need to know before you can provide a quote to a customer?

Accepted Answer

Date, time, venue/locations are the must before we start a quotation. Also having an idea of what you want is important too. However i know lots of people do not know much about flowers therefore i have ample examples available to peruse in order for the perfect look to be achieved.

Question 9

How can a customer save money before you start the work? Please give 3 tips

Accepted Answer

A customer may save money by using their own vases, bowls arrangement vessels etc. They can use flowers that are readily in season and not have to import or get in especially .

Question 10

Are there any special offers you would like to offer to Oneflare customers?

Accepted Answer

If your wedding order comes in over $300.00 i throw in a free bouquet for the reception. The throw aways are a very traditional and fun part of the ceremony:) My pricing is very competitive.

Question 11

What makes your pricing competitive?

Accepted Answer

Again as i have no overheads and work from home around my children, i am extremely competitive. I do not have to pay for shop rent, employees etc. I have a fully equipped garage that i work from that is set up especially for my flowers.

Question 12

How do you normally charge for your service?

Accepted Answer

I charge bouquets anywhere from $80.00 up to $250.00 depending on the flowers used.  I always give the customer an opportunity to come back if another quotation is obtained which is cheaper to enable me to beat this. However you will find that i am very very cheap compared to most florists as i do not have the overheads. I also charge delivery around melbourne which is 0.85c/km round trip as per whereis.com.

I have undertaken training with a qualified florist as well as completing my diploma of floristy in Rippenlea. As i have completed many wedding and events with noting but compliments i feel very comfortable in what i do.
