How to Send Flowers Online

Beth Inman
Can you order flowers online? Can they deliver them anywhere? Do they have places all over the United States? The answers are Yes, Yes, and Yes! In the age of technologies, we have so many options now that give us the opportunity to send flowers to anyone, anywhere. All of these options also make void, any excuse you may come up with for NOT sending flowers! Technological advancement does not come without a cost to someone! Some of the online companies such as 1-800-FLORALS offer an online reminder program that will help keep you out of trouble.

Flowers are not cheap, and when we send flowers we want to know they get delivered on time, that they are what we ordered, and look nice when they are delivered. Ordering from a company that offers hand delivery is a must, as this will assure that someone sees the flowers when they are delivered and can assure they are in nice shape, with no damage. When ordering flowers online, you should stick with established companies, with a good reputation for customer service. I would also stick with the companies that offer live customer service. This will allow you to get answers for any questions you may have regarding services or floral and gift options. There are many companies that offer online service. Most local florist such as Cottage Rose Floral and Gifts

also take worldwide delivery orders. They offer this service through companies such as FTD and 1800FLOWERS, so their product delivery is backed up by the same company guarantee. There are many companies online that offer this service.

1-800-FLOWERS

I think everyone has heard of 1-800-Flowers. This company is a major, well known, source for ordering flowers online. They can provide delivery all over the United States and internationally as well. They have been in business since 1976, and make customer satisfaction their number one source of business growth. They have people available twenty four hours a day, seven days a week. You can speak directly to a service representative and express exactly what you are looking for. They assure satisfactory service, and will hand deliver your flowers the same day. They offer many services, and have a very good reputation of delivering exactly what you asked for.

FTD

is other floral delivery service that has been around a long time, with a good customer service record. They claim to be the oldest online floral delivery service and also have a real person, customer service department. They guarantee that the flowers they deliver will last at least 7 days. There is not much that disappoints more, than having the roses you paid over $50 for die in two or three days. They are also able to speak with you personally and take your order exactly as you would like it.

PHILLIP'S 1-800-FLORALS

is not the same company as 1-800-FLOWERS, however, they appear to offer the same services, with the same guarantees. I have not personally used this company, but they have been in business since 1923. For a company to be in business for 80+ years is a good indication that they have built that history on customer satisfaction.
