This time of year is really strange for everyone in retail. Valentine’s is just over and Mother’s Day will be with us soon. The people busiest at this time of year are florists and balloon sellers as everyone wants to show their loved ones how much they care. This is quite different to the rest of the retail industry who experience a down turn between Christmas and Easter.
Speaking about florists, one of the great things about the Internet is that nowadays you can sort out a flower delivery to someone you love anywhere in the world. All it takes is grabbing your mouse, finding a flower delivery website and you can have it sorted in a few minutes.
One place to try is ProFlowers who will deliver anywhere in the US for you. They have a great selection of flowers on their website which you can search through by occassion, price and or colour. Check it out!
I just love the web!
You’re right about florists having the extra business that other retailers don’t have between the big holidays – however, these are the only busy times they ever have (other than weddings and funerals, which aren’t exactly seasonal). Luckily the web has opened up these businesses to operate outside if their zip codes should they choose to.
