I had a lovely day yesterday at work. Lots of new people had visited our little town to go to the food and drink festival. While in Brightlingsea they checked out our fantastic High Street. I have been thinking a lot recently how to keep my business going as it gets more and more difficult to survive in this convenience , online world. I have always wanted to hang onto being a traditional, local flower shop. Offering a personal service, offering a friendly face, knowing my customers likes and dislikes…… but it is getting so challenging to do this.
After some great feedback from some lovely people yesterday I felt that it is important to try and hang onto that dream - but how?
I am taking a few days away from the shop this week to try to come up with a plan…… I will be open again Thursday at 1pm - 4.30pm, Friday and Saturday as normal. See you soon.
