Althea Wiles, florist educator for J Althea Creative Consulting and designer and owner of Rose of Sharon Floral Design Studio, is launching the Pretty & Profitable Workshop. The Pretty & Profitable Workshop is led by public speaker, Althea Wiles, and available for appearance bookings hosted at wholesale floral houses, independent florist studios and shops, florist conventions or anywhere florists gather.  You can learn more about Wiles’ almost 30-year career as a florist business owner and florist education consultant with a wide range of virtual and in-person opportunities in her press kit here: https://tinyurl.com/5n6ems6h


Florists will have the chance to learn from a veteran florist who has been there and done that.  Wiles' wide range of topics include systems and operations, pricing for profitability, quarterly planning, lists of resources and a host of tips and tricks in the flower business. The basic workshops are the perfect place for florists’ new employees who they may not have time to train.  More in-depth workshops will cover topics that even the most seasoned florists can learn from.  


“Various workshops will be held based on seasonality, as well.  From Valentine’s Day to Mother’s Day systems prep to holiday quarterly planning, I want to help florists where they are at that moment in time. Major holidays need thought and attention before the holidays. It’s good to start thinking about your plans before the rush,” says Althea Wiles. 


Interested parties including wholesale floral houses, independent florist studios and shops, florist conventions and private training programs can contact J Althea Creative for bookings.  Wiles wants to instill confidence in florists whether they are dealing with a profitability issue, a difficult customer, a wedding or event or any myriad of issues professional florists deal with on a daily basis.  


It’s super easy to get started:

  • Contact J Althea Creative
  • Pick a workshop date
  • Complete our questionnaire to help us understand your needs
  • Gather your team or network


“I want students to walk away from our Pretty & Profitable Workshop with new sets of skills that they can take back to their businesses and start using that day,” says Althea Wiles.
