How to open your flower shop from scratch and without a franchise. (Book of Yelcheninov A.A.)


12.1 The main expenses for opening a flower salon




I have experience in such a remote flower shop. Then we discovered it far from the city, together with my partner. Only one bus traveled here and it was not often, so it was possible to get there by car. The name of our store is still remembered in my city because we built a different concept for our salon in such a way that people would come to us from all over the city for flowers. Before, I did not understand how important it is to work correctly on the business model of a flower shop, now, of course, I know much more and want to share my knowledge with you. And, of course, the rental of this premises was much lower than in the city center.

When concluding a contract, be sure to carefully read what is written in it. You can talk with the landlord and find out the pros and cons of the location. You can write down your conditions in the contract that you would like the owner to comply with. The main thing is do not run ahead of the engine, do not rush to sign.

First of all, you need to think about your convenience and benefit, do not listen to the landlord if he is in a hurry to conclude an agreement. His task is to rent the premises and he doesn’t care whom, if only faster. What you should pay special attention to:

On the walls and ceiling in the room, if there is mold, then this is an occasion to refuse removal. Remember, mold is very dangerous for human and plant health, it causes cancer cell activity, think about your health and the health of your future employees. Usually mold is found in old houses.

To the sewer. Old houses may have old pipes or frequent problems, so you need to inspect and check the sewers. Bad, rusty pipes - a reason to look for another room.

For lighting, if there are few windows in the room, there is no additional light, the light does not pass through the old windows - then, when removing such a room, it is immediately worth noting that you will have to arrange additional light for plants, especially for those that live in pots.

To find out all the nuances, it is necessary to write down all the questions of interest and when viewing the place ask their lessor. Any questions in this case are important, it’s better to find out all at once than to torture yourself or terminate the contract because of some trifle, but important and necessary. All answers are best written down so as not to forget, if something is not clear - ask again. Having heard such a number of questions, it is possible that the owner of the premises will reduce the price, since he will understand that it does not correspond to all points - it suits you. I advise you to bargain with the landlord, of course, he may not make concessions (and this is not fatal), but he may also yield a little.
