To Share Our Passion and Commitment for the Education and Designing of Fresh Flowers.
 Techniques4Flowers is releasing Phase I as a promotion for the complete book. I have been working on the Techniques4Flowers concept since 2013. I am creating a membership for individuals interested in fresh flowers and their designs. This membership will present to the consumer the different market segments I have created of fresh flowers. The concept is to educate and present professional floral designs to the consumer. It is a program that will allow individual designers and professional florists to showcase their designs and products to the consumer. The market segments I am presenting are Florists, Flowers Available, Internet, Non-perishable Suppliers, and Perishable Suppliers. I will present four phases – DIYs, Floral Designers, Shop Owners, and Suppliers. As a promotion, I am releasing PHASE I to introduce the membership. PHASE I is focused on DIY. Membership is $4.99 a month. Because we will be introducing new materials to the membership, we are offering a payment of $4.99 for 6 months access to the program. Along with the blog, we will create a website. This will allow us to present more information. More PHASES are being produced and will be presented soon. Members belonging to Tecniques4Flowers will have first access to all future releases.

 A preview of the Table of Contents for Techniques4Flowers Phase I I want to present a new way of looking at fresh flowers. I was advised to begin blogging. I began blogging in 2017. This digital book is created from posts 2017-2022. I have previewed the book and it is being formatted for release! I begin by presenting the methods by which I became involved with fresh flowers. Then, I looked at the methods used to operate a small florist before the internet. One section is devoted to educating on the methods for selection, processing , care and conditioning of fresh cut flowers. This looks at choosing and handling of the freshest blooms to make them last the longest amount of time. I also look at popular flowers. The next section shares the tools I use for arranging fresh flowers. It shares knowledge and procedures for each tool. It also discusses containers, wire, floral foam. flower preservatives, floral tapes, and ribbon. Collections are presented for ideas of flower arrangements for all occasions. This includes rose arrangements, budvases, baskets, and corsages. I show off flowers for the hair. I also suggest flower ideas for Mother’s Day. Holiday flower ideas are presented for holidays beginning with Halloween. I have been working on the Techniques4Flowers concept since 2013.

 A dozen roses is a traditional Valentine’s Day gift! Valentine’s Day is a time to “impress” your love. Many looks for an extraordinary way, such as having a dozen roses delivered to a workplace. A person may look online for a florist to complete this desire. What are the options available online? I entered “Florists in Mobile,AL” in my search engine. I found an “Yelp” article “The Best 10 Florists near me in Mobile, AL”. Ten florists were listed. In the listing-one was in Mississippi, two are no longer in business, and seven are florists in Mobile. That means 30% in that sample were misleading. Does that mean they were not florists, and you would not get your order? Not necessarily. That could happen, but it probably is a wire service. The wire service may be keeping the post online because it is an older member listed that has closed the business. A wire service is an industry that was formed in the early 1900’s to give access to florists in other cities to deliver flowers. This is the way it works. The wire service enrolls florists in different cities to join their membership. When the florists join this service, their shops are listed in the cities they deliver to. When a customer wants to send to someone not in their city, the customer could call their local florist. The florist would take their order, and look in the membership listings of the wire service. The local florist would call the florist in the city of the delivery and give them the order. The delivering florist would prepare the order given by the sending florist. This is the way it was done before the internet. After the internet became so popular, many wire services offered to take the orders, online, and send it to their members. Wire services will fill an order, but they take a percentage of the price for their services. In my opinion, this is one reason why florist prices are so high online. There are a lot of hands in the orders online. In the above sample, the florist in Mississippi will call a florist in their wire service in Mobile. The delivery will come from a Mobile florist. In the Yelp Listings, there were 7 shops that are excellent florists. How do you know which one to use? Take the time to call the florists. Your order is important enough to research! It took me a few minutes to find the phone number for the shop I was reviewing. You may already know the florists listed. It will save you time, money, and reassurance for placing your order over the phone to your selected florist. Holidays are busy times for all vendors. Delivered flowers make a great impression! Make sure your delivery is to your expectations!
