The vast majority of florists are small businesses
The florist industry is overwhelmingly comprised of small businesses, with nearly two thirds of florists employing fewer than five people, and a near-total 99.9% employing less than 100 people.1,2 Small teams and tight timelines while flowers are fresh means that every efficiency impacts a florist’s bottom line.
EasyRoutes’ powerful route optimization engine ensures that delivery drivers take the most efficient route possible to complete an on-time flower delivery. Enabling any of EasyRoutes’ additional route planning criteria - such as time spent per stop, or avoiding U-turns and toll roads - helps further boost operational efficiency and fuel savings once blooms are on the move.
EasyRoutes’ Shopify-native interface streamlines staff onboarding, allowing new users to create and deploy optimized delivery routes in just a few clicks, all from the Shopify admin. Customizing the consumer experience is just as simple, with EasyRoutes enabling custom store-branded packing slips, labels, and order tracking pages to ensure a florist’s brand presence pops as much as their peonies.
Using EasyRoutes allowed Bloomen to realize direct cost & time savings of 30-40% in their route planning and local delivery operations: “EasyRoutes has not only been a time-saver, but it's saved us money too. It's one of the most useful apps for my business that I have ever installed.”
Seasonality impacts florists’ sales volumes by up to 20x
Roses for Valentine’s Day, lilies for Easter; mums for fall and poinsettias for Christmas: many seasons & special occasions are traditionally associated with a particular flower, with Valentine’s Day alone accounting for as much as 40% of a florist’s total annual sales.3 Scaling delivery operations to match these occasions can be particularly challenging for florists of all sizes.
EasyRoutes’ flexible driver seat functionality allows florists to activate additional drivers to deliver during peak holiday periods, instantly realizing cost savings during off-peak periods where consumer demand temporarily decreases. When holiday order volumes inevitably become thorny, EasyRoutes’ delivery zones and route balancing features provides florists additional tools to scale and manage their seasonal rush. Preferred time and date windows collected on checkout can easily be incorporated into EasyRoutes optimized routes & ETAs so bouquets arrive exactly when they're expected.
