Quality

A local florist works with only select flower farms and vendors to bring you the best flowers, plants, and gifts. This can differentiate them from the online companies that often freeze their flowers before sending them to you in a box.zoom_AnniversaryBouquetLarge12111221929

Who wants to receive flowers that are often dead or wilted when you can enjoy hand arranged, hand delivered fresh flowers that last much longer?! Often, these discounters are not even in your state let alone your local town.

Personal Service

While an online company may seem convenient, you use any experience from shopping with them. There is no recognition of who you are if you come back a second time or personal touch in terms of recommendations, name acknowledgement, or personal “thank you’s” for shopping with them.holidayV4

A local florist knows you and recognizes you each and every time you come in to their shop or even if you call or use their online store. They remember special dates and occasions as well as preferences. A local florist may even call you to tell you about something new that has arrived that you may like.

Unique and Varied Product Offering

Another differentiating factor is a diverse product offering as well as a unique collection of floral designs. That is because a local florist typically has an in-house professional floral design team that can create signature designs, custom designs, and more.

A local florist also offers other products like plants, garden baskets, balloons, greeting cards, gift baskets, collectibles and more, making it a one-stop shop for all your special occasions.

They even offer event and wedding services if and when you require those types of services.thanksgivingv5

These are all differentiating factors compared to an online discount florist who does not have the expertise or depth of floral knowledge to offer such a diverse product and service offering.

When you look at all these factors, it really makes sense to partner with a local florist who offers quality, personal service, and unique products and services. That truly defines great value and ensures that you will be able to always create joy for your recipients and yourself as you shop with your local florist. For those of you in the Denver area, Veldkamps can be that for you!
