Ideas That Work
Do you have
something that you’ve learned or that your shop
has recently started doing to increase business
or better service your customers? Sharing
business tips through NFA can help all of us be
more successful. Send your ideas our way and we
can share them with our membership.
For example, SAF offers these tips for educating
your staff on the subject of color:
- Use red or
pink tones to communicate passion;
- Design a
blue or violet arrangement to make the
recipient feel at ease;
- Recommend a
yellow and orange arrangement to give someone
a smile.
