How to Start a Business With Wood Flowers

Posted by Abby Clare on January 19th, 2020

The way society evolves has the tendency to transform more and more products into reusable ones. The entrepreneurial spirit of every existent business has taken action through the prism of economic thinking and to boost efficiency and the utility of the resources. The products that get to be commercialized are very rarely non-reusable these times and when they aren’t it is because of excessive use or deterioration of external factors. For creative environments choosing an eco-friendly resource is also key, so making products out of sola flowers is a great choice. Being made out of a very malleable wood ensures a big range of products can be made and that the wood flowers will have long-lasting durability.

Obtaining the Resources Needed for Sola Flowers

The impulse behind the need of making creations out of  sola flowers  is given by the environment-friendly characteristic of them. This is also one of the main reasons why they even started existing in the first place. As an entrepreneur, the purpose is to sell your product as well as you can. Highlighting its best features is of utmost importance. For this kind of creations, the case is simple: they last forever and are 100% biodegradable.

As a result of the creative process, from start to finish, it is not harming nature as well. Wood flowers are made out of tapioca or balsa tree bark through hewing. The procedure throughout this industry is very common. Usually, the picking and hewing are done by hand but there are also some places where a part of the work has been automatized. To obtain the final product paint will be added because in their initial state the sola flowers have the color of ivory. That is not to say that the color itself is bad. It might actually be preferred by some people but most clients what different colors.

Last but not least the prime resources need to be sustainable. The trees itself are so but there has to be some agricultural knowledge and advice be taken into consideration. This is because sometimes you may not be able to count only on third party suppliers. As a result, having a field of trees for yourself is a very good idea. This way you will always have an emergency supply.

Boosting the Utility of Wood Flowers

The main thing you should focus on your business is to boost the utility and economic efficiency of the  wood flowers  you create. Doing so means to increase the range of available projects, services, and products for your clients while all being made mostly from the same type of resource. Modification to the ways of production should be avoided unless necessary. Alterations should be made only when upgrades make a very obvious spike in profit. So with the same background process, you have to try and diversify your coverage area.

On the other hand, refusing to make upgrades to your way of creating the goods might be a bad idea in the long term. You have to take into consideration what amount of investing you can afford without damaging the business itself. Keep in mind the there will most probably be salaries to pay as well.

One way of seeing this business is that you are looking to replace real flowers with your creations which come with improvements. Expand territory through areas such as event decorating, pieces of jewelry, accessories, clothing, and others. Fine arts will always be warmly received so you might as well think big.

Improving and Maintaining Relationships with Clients



The requests of the clients will always increase in speed and diversify in range, so at some point, this might seem a bit overwhelming. Especially if the business is just starting, small and hand-made executed. This is why maintaining a close relationship with every client is important. Be attentive to every category of preference. The demand is surely set to go upwards as long as you value the tastes and trends that your buyers will express. This will range from colors and textures to sizes and shapes. Clients should be able to choose their own colors, preferred types, assortments and so on. Maybe even have special requests such as fantasy flowers made for custom orders.

Things that always sit well with clients are free shipping and having a physical place where the wood flowers can be seen and touched. Experts say that interacting with the exposed products almost always ensures a better chance of being bought.
