So apparently some people still DO NOT UNDERSTAND!!! Let me explain WHEN YOU, FAMILY, FRIENDS, COWORKERS even PEOPLE YOU DON'T LIKE WHEN YOU ORDER ONLINE IT'S NOT A GUARANTEE YOU, YOUR FAMILY, FRIENDS, COWORKERS WILL GET WHAT THEY SAW ONLINE!!!
CALL A BRICK & MORTAR...THAT MEANS OPEN THE PHONE IN YOUR HAND AND LOOK UP THE AREA YOU WANT TO SEND FLOWERS TO AND PLACE A ORDER WITH A LOCAL BUSINESS!!
š FUN FACT FRIDAY š¤Æ
Here is your friendly PSA! We preach this ALL. THE. TIME.
Do NOT place orders with any of these services. Hereās what happens if you do.
1. You pay any one of these horrible companies (there are more than whatās shown) your hard earned money. This gives them total control over what to do with your dollars for your order.
2. They donāt make ANY flowers. You read that right. They are not florists at all. They call themselves a ānetworkā of florists. This is very deceptive. You can identify them on google as they have āsponsoredā beside their listing. Number 1 comes into play next.
3. The real truth? They are call centers who steal orders from actual florists and route the order back to them at a heavily reduced price. Sometimes up to 50%!What does this mean for you? It means you simply overpaid for an arrangement because they kept up to half of your money for rerouting the order.
4. Number 3 isnāt even the worst part. Because these āorder gatherersā are highly disliked in our industry, many florists donāt accept ANY orders from them. That means the order that you just placed isnāt getting delivered and you donāt find out about it until after itās too late.
5. You have been burned and learned your lesson. Or maybe you havenāt made this mistake yet. Either way, call a REAL local florist with a physical address in the town you are calling before giving any of your money.
Support local businesses, save the headache and call a real florist.
