- Florists come in after those big decisions, so networking with planners, venues, and photographers is key.
- Being the florist that industry professionals recommend is how you fill your funnel with ideal clients.
2. Build Strong Vendor Relationships
- Connect with wedding planners, venues, and photographers—they’re the ones referring clients before they reach you.
- Stay top of mind by consistently engaging with vendors, attending networking events, and offering referrals.
- If you send business to a planner, they’re more likely to return the favor!
3. Filling Funnels for Different Floral Niches
- Weddings: Network with planners, venues, and photographers to become their go-to florist.
- Everyday Deliveries: Focus on SEO and website optimization to rank higher in searches.
- Corporate Events: Connect with hotels, event planners, and corporate venues for repeat business.
4. Your Personal Network is a Goldmine
- Does everyone you know, know what you do? If not, you’re missing opportunities!
- Regularly post on your personal social media (Facebook & Instagram) about your floral business.
- Example posts:
- “Here are my Valentine’s Day specials!”
- “Loved creating this stunning bouquet for a wedding last weekend!”
- “Excited to be featured in [XYZ Bridal Magazine]!”
- People want to support you, but they need reminders that you’re in business!
5. The Power of Value-Driven Marketing
- Always ask: “Is this content helping fill my funnel?”
- Provide value—educate, inspire, and showcase your expertise in floral design.
- When people trust your knowledge and skill, they’ll choose you over the competition.
6. Consistency is the Secret to Success
- Marketing and networking should be consistent, not seasonal.
- Regularly post, engage, attend events, and build relationships to stay relevant.
- If you’re not showing up, someone else will take your spot!
