Sponsored by Flower Shop Network, Inc. and Baisch & Skinner, SAF 1-Day Profit Blast in Kansas City offers a low registration fee ($139 for SAF members by July 12 and $99 for each additional registrant from the same company), to entice shop owners to bring staff.

The city best known for barbecue, jazz, fountains, the Chiefs and the Royals is the next stop for the Society of American Florists’ 1-Day Profit Blast.

Sponsored by Flower Shop Network Inc. and Baisch & Skinner, SAF’s 1-Day Profit Blast in Kansas City, Missouri, is set for Sunday, July 21. The event features presentations on wedding designs, event pricing, customer service and digital strategies, plus a Supplier Showcase, networking with other florists and vendors, and an optional extra hands-on design workshop. 

“We are so excited that florists will get to experience an action-packed day of educational seminars, hands-on design experience and networking opportunities that they can take back to their shops and implement to be more profitable in our ever-changing industry,” said Cindy Prichard, vice president of sales at Flower Shop Network.

Steve Frye of Baisch & Skinner agrees. “They are sure to leave Profit Blast inspired with a notebook full of ideas to take back to their shops on how to tackle challenges and create opportunities for new business.”

  • Loann Burke, AAF, AIFD, CFD, PFCI, with Furst Florist and Greenhouses will demonstrate “Wedding Designs, Tricks and Tools You’ll Love,” sponsored by Smithers-Oasis
