Here’s just one of their many five-star reviews:
“I stopped by the shop and was pleasantly addressed by a gentleman who I believe to be [a] designer. Sending something different to my mother that included hydrangea. He evidently heard me because the arrangement is better than I described and she loves it.” -Candace M.
It is because of enthusiastic reviews like this that FLOWERWORKS is now able to call themselves a Top Rated Local award winner!
Not Your Average Florist
We were excited to learn all about how FLOWERWORKS has been able to build such an exemplary reputation, so we sat down with the co-owner, Jerry Girdner.
The first thing we wanted to know was what it is that makes FLOWERWORKS stand apart from their competitors. In Jerry’s words, “We’re competitive price wise, but we’re professional. We’re not a supermarket. This is what we do. This is our specialty. We’re designers.”
When asked about the FLOWERWORKS mission, Jerry said, “I think we just want people to feel like they win. We want to be able to do as much as we can do within someone’s budget. We want them to walk away feeling that was money well spent.”
Building Success Through Fairness
Of course, we couldn’t let Jerry go without finding out what he believes to be the FLOWERWORKS secret to success. “It’s because I’m just fair. It’s pretty obvious to them that I’m passionate about what I do. My philosophy about the whole thing is that we’re trying to give them everything they want within their budget. But I think if you treat people right, like a young couple getting married, they’ll be customers of yours for life. Whenever they think about flowers they’re going to call. They’re going to have babies, they’re going to have anniversaries, they’re going to have funerals, unfortunately. If you do a fantastic job from the get-go, they’re always going to call you,” he told us.
As for marketing, the FLOWERWORKS team focuses on word of mouth.
There are many businesses out there that are looking to build as terrific reputation as FLOWERWORKS has managed to. We asked if Jerry could share any expert advice with these companies. Here’s what he had to say:
“Be fair. Be friendly. , Make that person number one. I honestly do that to every single person. When I’m working on their stuff, they’re number one to me.”
Congratulations to FLOWERWORKS for being a 2019 Top Rated Local award winner, and special thanks to Jerry for taking the time to speak with us! Check out their website here!
