Master Your Pricing With My Flower Math Course!
Florists can feel confident about the value they provide to their clients (and stop over-filling orders!).
If you've never worked in a flower shop before, or you’re less than 100% confident on your pricing, I’ll show you the way to profitability…Step by step. Flower Math is an unprecedented look at how to maximize your profit margin on weddings, events and every order. I don't tell you what I think you should do; I show you exactly how I do it.
But Don’t Take My Word For It:
"This course is like the missing subject in my initial floristry training course. Where my course skimmed over business details, Alison’s Flower Math bares all to give budding floral designers a completely transparent view of how to make money from their craft. If you haven’t had the chance to learn on the job from a ‘professional’, in a shop, or if you aren’t comfortable reaching out to a peer to ask the deep questions, this course is your answer."
Christie of Floriography
"Through the video Alison was able to convey a camaraderie with her message that made me feel like I was sitting down to coffee with a mentor. For some reason I needed that personal touch more than academic facts to stick with the formula and not “tweak” numbers to make myself more comfortable."
Session One Floralpreneur
"This really has been a game changer for me!! I cannot thank you enough for putting out this course. I CAN make a career out of this (and not only be a hobby florist)."
Susan of Wild Blume
