Aug. 26, 2011 - The Western Edition of the Canadian Florist Business
Forum took place last week in Edmonton on Aug. 17 and attendees walked
away with new ideas and inspiration for their business.
Sponsored by Bernard's Wholesale, Oasis, FTD and Teleflora, the event was well-received by both attendees and exhibitors. Throughout the day, four speakers presented on a variety of topics, which included ways to make more money right now, navigating the world of social media, successful selling strategies and marketing to the customer.
Following the event, several florists took to Twitter to share their feedback:
annepatsflowers: @CanadianFlorist thanks for putting on a great event! Kudos for investing in helping florists succeed! It was a fun and informative time.
Kels84: Passionate about my job again after a great conference! Love it! Thanks@CanadianFlorist
heatherdekok: @CanadianFlorist great day you guys!! Congrats. I got some great tips. Hope to see you again next year! I'll be there!!!
We'll have full coverage of the Edmonton event in the October issue of Canadian Florist magazine. Stay tuned to www.canadianfloristmag.com in the next few weeks because we'll also be posting video of the seminars for those who couldn't make.
Thanks to all of our exhibitors, sponsors, speakers and attendees for making the day a great learning opportunity for everyone involved!
