from http://www.meltingflowers.com/blogs/2018/10/06/5-best-banquet-halls-in-bangalore-for-weddings-or-any-events/ The iconic cash register was the dependable POS system of its time when the proverbial ‘ka-ching’ sound was heard every time it mechanically served both retailers and customers alike during its heyday. But just like all the enduring devices we have today such as the television, telephone and computer, it has gone through a major transformation. This rudimentary machine is now old news and replaced by a series of more advanced systems to serve the buying public. The POS system has evolved over the years and with the introduction of credit cards, it now featured a cashless method of payment to make purchases easier for consumers. With technology paving the way for more advanced upgrades, even this is fast becoming outdated and being replaced with the cloud POS system. Among the businesses that have integrated this technology is the floral industry. A florist POS system is a helpful tool in realizing the goals of a flower shop. With e-commerce now disrupting the floral industry, stores need to adapt. A seamlessly integrated POS system can address the changes that come with modernization. With a cloud-based florist POS in place, you can now keep up, boosting both speed and efficiency in running the store through it.
If you are quite uncertain if a florist POS system would improve your business of selling flowers, here are a few things you should know about to help you decide: The more advanced florist POS system has a host of features that leave the old reliable process in the dust. The most significant advantage is its move to mobile, allowing it to run remotely using a cloud service. All data is stored online, making it accessible anytime and anywhere. This has opened multiple doors to make running a flower shop more dynamic and flexible. To let you in on the major advantages of integrating one in your flower business, here are five that may convince you further: 1. Integrated Systems
A florist POS is a well-structured cloud-based system that allows your business to connect to an easy-to-use accounting system, inventory network, and various online suppliers. You have real-time data within a few taps of a button.
2. Data Accessibility
Due to its cloud-based nature, a florist POS system can be accessed using a smart mobile device through the internet. This is useful for immediate access to all the information you need from your customers.
3. Cost-Efficiency
A florist POS software is generally cheaper than the most recent and comprehensive traditional systems. This is essential for small flower shops that need a more extensive solution with low monthly fees.
4. Innovative Hardware
Service providers of floral POS systems are tasked to supply the latest equipment so your business won’t be left behind in using the newest technology. 5. Regular Updates
Cloud-based software is updated frequently and remotely. Digital payments are made more secure while giving customers more options to pay for a more flawless transaction.
ConclusionThe cloud-based POS service has revolutionized the whole customer experience, exposing the traditional POS systems’ lack of features in helping the business grow and expand its customer base faster and more efficiently. The more advanced florist POS system can help flower shops go beyond payment and focus on the more important facet of running a business: boost engagement with their customers. Florists who recognize that customer engagement is a continuous cycle including the steps leading up to and after payment are those who will need a robust florist POS system to establish sales and loyalty. If you are still using even the latest traditional POS system to run your flower shop, wake up and smell the flowers. It’s time you switch things up and reap all the incredible benefits of a cloud-based florist POS system. from https://floranext.com/florist-pos-system-features-every-florist-should-have-infographic/

from http://www.meltingflowers.com/blogs/2018/10/05/tips-for-choosing-best-wedding-hotels-for-your-wedding/ Have you heard of “random acts of kindness,” “what goes around comes around,” and “pay it forward”?These sayings are probably nothing new to you, however involving flowers may be. There has been an evolution of floral professionals paying it forward with random acts of kindness in their communities through the most beautiful thing in the world: flowers. Florists are now using a clever marketing tactic to also benefit their neighbors and other community members. There are so many hows on executing pay it forward with flowers—we list a few in this article and encourage you to pay it forward with flowers. ![]() The Lonely Bouquet | @thelonelybouquet The Lost-and-Found BouquetThis marketing tactic has been blowing up on social media. Not only does it benefit the finder, it also benefits the flower shop participating. Here’s how: make a beautiful bouquet of wrapped flowers, so it’s easy to transport. Make sure your stems are tubed for hydration add a beautiful ribbon. Make a captivating note to place on the outside of the bouquet. Be creative with the verbiage, but below is a template. You can use Facebook, Instagram, or any social media site you like to link back to you.
(Add your shop name, address and phone number below the message.) Pick a busy location in your area—a bus stop bench, on the steps of a library, anywhere you feel will be seen by many walkers by. Sit back and watch, these flower bouquets get snatched up in minutes. They also seriously make the finder’s day, imagine stumbling into something so beautiful made just for you—the possibilities of the pay-it-forward rule are limitless. ![]() Image via Shutterstock Do You Give a Bloom?This one is so enduring just as much. And there are so many ways to do this. Customers can sponsor a flower bouquet to give to someone to make their day. Here’s how: place a visible sign on your flower shop counter, window, and eCommerce website that states again feel free to use your own verbiage and pricing module. Spend $80.00 on a bouquet and we will give flowers to cheer up someone in need on your behalf. The card message could read “I purchased flowers today and wanted to send you some smiles as well—hope this makes your day.” Make sure the card message includes your shop name, address and phone number with the Give a Bloom title. Be sure to create a small note on the person getting the free flowers on the Give a Bloom program and why they are receiving these flowers. Receivers do not have to be in nursery homes or hospitals, they can be anyone you choose that you feel could use some cheering up. ![]() The Lonely Bouquet | @thelonelybouquet Flower Hunt/Lonely BouquetUnlike the lost-and-found bouquet, the flower hunt is a tad different. This time you will leave a flower bouquet in your location, either inside or out, and make it more difficult to find. Posting a Flower Map on your social media so your visitors can find the flower bouquet and report back to your social media page once found. The finder’s reward is keeping the flower bouquet. Clues and maps can be anything along these lines:
Make sure these are unsuspecting places and add a note or tag to read something like:
Where do you place these? Try to hide them somewhat so they aren’t randomly snatched up like:

Chief Plant Expert Ebony Andrews from Flowers Across Melbourne tells us: “Lilies should be avoided for kids bedrooms as they are toxic if ingested. While lilies are extremely fun to watch open up and have beautiful colour, they can be dangerous, especially for babies and young children. You should always design a child’s bedroom to be a soothing place for bedtime and the fragrance of lilies can be extremely stimulating. Lilies are best to be avoided if you want your little darlings to get to sleep quickly and stay asleep! As for plants we recommend, the peace lily is perfect as it’s known for its air purifying qualities. However, peace lilies can be toxic if ingested, so be careful when designing with this plant and use for older children’s rooms only.” Opt for soothing plants and keep any toxic ones secure and out of reach of younger children.

Here’s some quick and easy ways you can welcome the new season into your home! Clean up There’s no better way to begin getting ready for spring than by doing a spring clean, of course! Interior Designer Sophie Kost from My Beautiful Abode tells us the benefits of doing so: “There’s nothing like that feeling of a rejuvenated space, which why through the generations and across cultures, spring cleaning is approached with a fervour akin to spiritual cleansing, as a way to herald in a new season, new beginnings. Our tip to freshen up your space for the warmer months is to declutter and restyle. Decluttering is big business, and whilst we are firm believers in a regular systematic clean out of the stuff that accumulates almost organically, we believe it’s a person’s ‘stuff’ that tells their story, that expresses their personality and makes a house a home.” One thing that makes spring cleaning a whole heap easier is having nifty storage solutions, like trundle beds or shelving units.
