Hi Jim, Am the same as you, flowers and gifts. I wouldn't enter as I've only been open 4 mths. Also I live in a funny area where there isn't alot of corporate work to be had. One of the local florists is married to the brother of the owner of two of the three hotels round here. I don't think the offices are willing to spend enough either to make it worth chasing that side. I think essentially I want a successful business that pays the bills with a few treats too! I don't want to be dictated to about what makes me successful, the customer spend tells me that. I'm not sure either if many consumers are even aware of FSOY or how impressed they'd be by it. I wonder if any of that sounds defeatist or lazy but I think as a new business I've got better things to worry about!
