My name is Marty Arrivo, I am the owner of Homewood Florist in Homewood IL. We have been in business for 52 years. I have seen this business change over the past few years (not for the better) and I am interested in hearing what other florist have to say about wire services and the scum bag order gathers that have invaded on industry. I don't think I know of another business that has to deal with internet fake businesses as much as we do! Hell, if you Google my florist you get 4-5 florist pretending to be us. That SUCKS!
 
Hey Marty... Welcome to the FlowerChat community! We're glad you found us.

Lots to digest, and much on what you speak of around here. Look forward to chatting with you.

Enjoy!
 
Hi Marty
You will find lots of discussion here about your concerns. But on the postive note there is a group of florists taking the bull by the horns so to speak and working towards the B&M florists taking back the business for themselves. Florists for change, or FCC, have a look through the posts here, you may find the information very interesting and empowering.
