Unique to Bloomen |
TOP |
If you have ever
visited the web site of a large floral e-retailer, or if you have considered
participating in an Internet offering from a wire service or association,
you will realize that the following features are unique to Bloomen:
-
National Language Support (annual
growth of online floral sales in North America is expected at 19%, while
Western Europe is forecast at 90%). Bloomen will be ready for a global
market by offering support for multiple languages, while correspondence with
you remains in English.
-
Unique buying process to encourage the
open order and reduce the dependency on catalog-style buying.
-
Bloomen encourages online buyers to
call the store during your regular business hours and place orders directly
with you, thus increasing the opportunity to capture high-margin orders
directly.

The Power of Working Together |
TOP |
As you read through the following list
of features, consider the fact that the cost of providing these features is
shared among the Bloomen members and not assumed by a single florist. There
is strength in numbers!
-
For consumers that prefer to place the
order online, either because of language or time zone challenges, Bloomen
provides a complete online purchase process, including currency exchange, so
you deal only in your native currency and your native language.
-
A web portal to attract consumers and
bring them to your site so you can capture high-margin web orders.
Remember, online
orders are sent to you either by e-mail or by fax. This means that if you
don’t have a computer with an Internet connection, you can still enjoy the
benefits of a web site!
