Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers.

In 2020, I launched Premium Fleurs as a side venture with the aim of generating extra income for my family. With a natural flair for creativity and a growing passion for flowers, I found that my floral creations garnered significant positive feedback. Encouraged by this response, I took a leap of faith and dedicated myself fully to the business. Through unwavering determination and a clear vision, I persevered, despite encountering challenges such as days with zero sales. I remained consistent, producing quality content and building an empire fueled by genuine passion for my craft. My ambitions extend beyond the status quo, and I continue to strive for more, with aspirations to specialize in rose bouquets, flower boxes, and ultimately, to become a master specialist in funerals, weddings, and events. Premium Fleurs represents a new wave in the floral industry, and my work speaks for itself. This is just the beginning of a journey towards greater success for myself and my family. I am also working on my Floral Supply Co. coming soon. Premium Floral Supply Store.

What do you think helped you build your reputation within your market?

I believe that my reputation in the floral industry has been built through my commitment to staying true to my vision and consistently creating authentic content. I have also put a strong emphasis on finding innovative ways to market my business. By being hands-on and personally crafting flower arrangements and bouquets, I have established a strong foundation. As my business has grown, I am grateful to have an exceptional team supporting me, but I continue to remain closely involved, ensuring that every order is completed and delivered with the utmost care and attention. I’m not afraid to get my hands dirty, even if it means personally delivering arrangements to guarantee the highest level of customer service. I believe in the power of prayer and faith, and I am thankful to God for every order I receive. This hands-on approach and unwavering commitment to excellence have been instrumental in shaping the success and reputation of my company.

Any insights you can share with us about how you built up your social media presence?

Social media has played a crucial role in the success of my business. I have found value in engaging with my audience on a daily basis, ensuring consistent and authentic interaction. By regularly showcasing my rose bouquets and other floral creations, I have been able to effectively reach my target audience. Reposting content from satisfied clients who tag me has also significantly contributed to the growth of my business. While understanding social media algorithms can be challenging, I have chosen to focus on creating and sharing high-quality and engaging content consistently rather than getting too caught up in the intricacies of algorithms. My primary goal is to highlight my talent and the exceptional quality and service that my business offers. By staying authentic and dedicated to sharing new and exciting content every day, I have been able to effectively communicate the unique value of my business to the world.
