Disscusion Forums

Discussions abounded on the forum this past week. A response was posted to a member's request for recommendations and personal experiences regarding offering simple floral classes in her shop. The post suggested checking with the insurance company to see if rates would increase by holding the classes. The other important recommendation involved making sure "you have the right person to teach" the floral classes. Want to share your experience with in-shop floral classes?

There's a new request up on the boards wanting to know if members have seen an improvement in revenue due to their Web sites. The curious poster also wants some information on how those sites that do successfully bring in business accomplish such a feat. She posted a couple specific questions regarding Web site setup. Click here to see if you can help her with the answers.

Or start your own discussion.
