For those of you who may be considering Flowers for Kids, but are on the fence about it, here is an article that our local newspaper printed a couple of weeks ago http://www.kdhnews.com/news/story.aspx?s=40290 Flowers for Kids is something that just about every florist in a small to medium market could really take advantage of. The cost is very minimal and the community visability is phenominal. I get product donated from my local Greenleaf wholesale for each of these classes I present and it costs about $1.00 per child for the supplies. Each child that attends can very easily spread the word about your shop to 3 or 4 more others.
Also, the children are the future flower buyers.

I have given this class to over 1500 children and will continue to do so as long as the support from my wholesaler is there. Please check out the photo of the young gal touching the liatris, PRICELESS
 
Phil, thanks so much for sharing the article. I took my class with Ramiro almost three years ago and have yet to do a class, never seem to have the time........when I see something like this wonderful good-will FREE advertising, it makes me hang my head in shame!

Phil, what a great article. Congratulations.

Linda, I thought the same thing, I just don't have the time to do this. You just have to set your mind at doing it and just do it. I schedule classes once a week but skip the weeks I know will be too busy, like around holidays. Everyone at the shop knows that most Tuesdays are Flowers for Kids days. It is extremely rewarding, both for your business and for yourself personally.

Again, congrats Phil, keep up the good work.
