Business Planning Jumpstart

Many of the florists I’ve talked with recently say it’s been a busy year, which is awesome news as someone who keeps a beat on what’s happening in the floral industry!….but if you want to plan for a busy next season….and the season after that, you’re invited to join me LIVE Monday, Oct. 22-26 for a business planning boost before the end of the year!
This is a bonus planning session for paid members of The Art of Good Business. You have lifetime access to this course, including any bonuses and updates I add, plus you can ask me questions any time in our private Facebook group for members only.

Next-level planning starts now for your business!

Here’s what’s covered in the 5-day bonus planning session starting Monday:
  • Day 1: Planning ahead: You future-thinking business goals
  • Day 2: SWOTs (Note: I want you to identify 1 opportunity that you can act on!)
  • Day 3: Improving Sales Copy With “Benefits & Results”
  • Day 4: Bare Bones Business Plan (you’ll have a current and future plan for your biz this week!)
  • Day 5: Updating and Implementing (because action is essential!)
THIS IS IMPORTANT WORK TO DO BEFORE THE END OF THE YEAR.
Your business can’t wait until January to plan for a successful 2019.
And you can’t just “hope business increases” without a plan to make meaningful moves that create changes in your biz.

So if you’re looking for better clients or struggling with your sales copy or you’re not sure how to improve your brand without investing $20,000+ in a marketing expert, this course is made for you!

You don’t have to be a marketing expert to have a good brand.
(But you do have to do some hard work to get to the heart of your brand’s message and values!)


Here’s what you’ll learn in The Art of Good Business:

  • Gain valuable strategies around how to prequalify customers so that you’re not wasting time with clients who aren’t a good fit;
  • Uncover a deeper understanding of who your ideal customers are so that you can speak directly to them;
  • Learn how to improve your website to create a first point of contact that attracts ideal clients;
  • Choreograph outstanding client management that feels like personalized customer service for your ideal clients;
  • ​​​​Hone the unique blend of talents that make up your one-of-a-kind brand so that you can eliminate the competition by highlighting your own personal branding strengths.

To get the maximum benefits from this course you’ll need:

  • a computer to log in & download pdfs,
  • an open mind & willingness to expand your thinking,
  • a pen & notebook,
  • and a commitment to start what you finish!

And if you need some encouragement, I’ll be live once a month in our private Facebook group to help get you over the finish line & answer your questions!

(Yes, I’ll talk to you on a Sunday!)

If you know a florist who would enjoy my Real Flower Business “stuff”, please pass it on.
​​​​​​​Keep doing beautiful work!
With love from me to you,
Alison
