The Business of Floristry, Resources and Automation
Welcome to The Business of Floristry by Rebecca Hobbs Floral Design.
Whether you're new to the Floristry industry or a seasoned pro, I offer user-friendly downloads and resources, in-person workshops and online coaching to help develop you and your business.
Because I am still very much an active florist, designing and flowering over 50 weddings a year, I understand the challenges you face. Whilst juggling a busy family life, and known as an organisational guru by many of my industry colleagues, I can share strategies that can help you too. I can also help you to automate your business cutting down on your admin time leaving you to do the things you enjoy.
What you'll get from me is practical and honest advice from someone who has been there and knows how hard it can be.
I will never tell you that in 6 months you will have a 5 figure business. that's not my vibe. What I will give you is real honest advice from someone who has been there and knows how hard it is.
