Mother’s Day is quickly approaching on May 14 and it’s not too early to start planning for deliveries. The Society of American Florists has a variety of resources to help you make your deliveries productive and profitable.
The resources on SAF’s Floral Education Hub include:
- March Idea Exchange: Is Third-Party Delivery for You?: SAF’s March Idea Exchange highlighted florists who are turning to third-party delivery services to help with their late orders, high volume, or even to expand their service area. Watch a recording of the event, which is free for SAF members and $9.99 for nonmembers.
- Draw Up Your Contract: In this Floral Management article, Paul Goodman, MBA, PFCI, shares the rules and best practices to follow with contract labor.
- Strategies to Accelerate Deliveries WebBlast: In this webinar, Paul Goodman, MBA, PFCI, will teach you how to set delivery zones and charges, track drivers’ productivity and hire quality drivers. This webinar is free for SAF members, $14.99 for nonmembers.
Utilize these resources to plan ahead for Mother’s Day!
