Know exactly what AI can do for your flower shop — and what it can't. You don't need to understand AI beyond that — just the five places it saves you real time between arrangements, and then ignore the rest.
Here's what actually pays off:
- Retail order replies — two different rhythms. A routine "just because" or birthday order moves at a normal pace. A sympathy or same-day order needs a fast, warm reply, because grieving families and last-minute senders are comparing whoever answers first. AI can help you draft both faster, but it doesn't determine who books.
- Wedding and event inquiry intake. A detailed proposal-request reply — asking for date, venue, guest count, color palette, and budget range — takes real time to draft well. AI can structure that intake message so nothing important gets missed.
- Itemized quotes and design confirmations. A clear message confirming what's included — arrangement types, stem counts, delivery/setup — replaces a vague verbal understanding with something both sides can reference. The dollar figures are always yours; more on that in Lesson 1.2.
- The event-day setup schedule. Sequencing deliveries and installations across a wedding or event day, factoring in venue access windows and drive time, can take real planning time. AI may reduce the time once your inputs are established — but every number in the schedule comes from you.
