I think teleflora Miss the boat in Canada

[Luc]

THis mother's day holiday with the MOney and the teapot. They were both nice but too expensie for the consumer. I think teleflora woll have to re-evalute a little bit their stategy for canadian members. I also will do the same when I am going to buy. If the products are goingt o be expensive you will sell lots less here. Sure we are small apples compare to what the USA shops buy but We are all part of teleflora and we should be thought about it,

I hope next year teacup and teapots are NOT PART of Mothers day. I am getting tired of them...

How about a musical jewlery box that has a liner for fresh flowers.
How about a nice piece of jewlery or pendant arangement.
What would you ladies like for mother's Day? DO you still want teapot, teacup, vases or something different.
Let's come up with something NEW for them to use.
Multiple choices offered.

Funny, here I was thinking we missed the boat because we didn't order the teapot & cup. There was large demand for these items, and continues to be ... same with the ornament & bowl at Christmas.

Do I love them? Yes, because they sell.
Am I tired of them? Yes, but the customers aren't ... and they rule.
Do I want something new? Always

Musical? Hell no ...
Jewelry? See above

The art-glass vases have sold quite well, and are a nice alternative for those who want something less traditional. I only with we could get away from having carns and/or mums in almost every design.

Teleflora post cards

We mailed out some of their post cards showing the Monet garden Bouquet and most people wanted the generic tf52-1 Pink Tulips,
or tf51-1 Spirited Spring shown on the reverse side. Go figure.

For larger markets, sure, for most of North America - ick, ew. We carried them, they were slow movers. How many teacups and teapots can Grannie/Mom possibly have room for? We've only offered them how often in the last five years?

Don't love them, am tired of them, can't con the consumers into buying them anymore and yes, I think we all need something new.

Musical? Hell no ...

Bigtime.

Make that a big "oh hell no" here.

I'm all for art-glass, my request is ... can we get off the insipid pastel pink and mauve kick that teleflora seems stuck in. Pink and mauve arrangement in cobalt and lime green vase.... uke:
