How to open your flower shop from scratch and without a franchise. (Book of Yelcheninov A.A.)
11. The economic component of the flower business.
Flower math.
In this section, I would like to touch upon an important component of the flower business, or rather, I want to discuss the economic components of this business. I will not give specific figures. All that is needed in the future, you can calculate yourself.
To open your flower salon, you must have an initial capital. Without investments, a business cannot be opened!
Important! Before you start your own business you need to make accurate calculations. I will not give you such calculations, because in each case, everything needs to be considered in a new way. The same calculations will not fit any business.
It is best at the initial stage of starting a business to have some, even minimal, amount of money. It is convenient when you do not have to borrow and you can count on your own strength.
Math in flower business - the thing is important and necessary. Therefore, if you were taught to add, subtract and divide at school, then you already know how.
I know some florists whose creative process is excellent, but how it comes to calculations, they have constant problems. After the shift, a mess is going on in the store with the cashier - either there is not enough money, then extra money from somewhere. To avoid this, you need to understand and be able to count money!
The organization of business is a complex process, so I propose to start counting from today. You can start a notebook and record all your expenses, starting with a trip on the subway, as well as spent gas to tax.
The amount required to open your own store depends on several factors:
1. The location of the flower salon;
2. Capital regulation;
3. Experience in sales;
4. Experience as a florist;
I would like to analyze each item in more detail, so that you understand how and what to do correctly. In this book I will dwell on each question more than once, because I hope that you have a true understanding of building a business.
