Florist Arranging Flowers

An Exciting Career in Floristry

The Floristry Course covers how to find a position as a florist, how to open your own florist shop, how to buy an established business or start a florist business from home.

With very little outlay you can start up a profitable career in floristry. Profits are higher than in many other businesses. The profit margin on make-up work such as a bowl, basket and funeral tributes is often 200% or more and much higher for bridal designs. Weddings can be very profitable.

As well as creating the floral designs for the bride, bridesmaids, flower girls, corsages and buttonholes, you will often be asked to arrange the flowers for the church and the wedding reception. You can make hundreds of dollars from one wedding alone. The cost of your course fees can be repaid many times over.
