ezflowerShop FAQ

• Often wire service members tell me they want to break free of the web sites offered by FTD and Teleflora and are afraid that they cannot afford 'another website'.
  
  Lets use this scenario: You are TF and contract with teleflora for your web site and you generate 100 orders per month. I would be willing to bet the reason you are getting so many orders thru the WS Florist Web Site is this: All of these orders are the result of your efforts, loading pictures - current items for season offered, getting your web site URL listed in all of the free florist directories as well as search engines, and having pertinent information to what you do in your local flower market and not as a result of TF's minimal efforts to help you administer the web site.
  
  Let us do the math. For your TF web site, Monthly You Pay:

  TF monthly website fee: $ 80.00
  TF per-order fee ($3.45ea x 100 orders): $345.00
  -------------------------------------------------
  Total TF fees for 100 orders a month: $425.00
  
  
  Let us do the math. For an ezflowerShop web site, Monthly You Pay:
  ezflowerShop web site monthly hosting fee $79.95
  -no per order or transaction fees
  --------------------------------------------------
  Total ezflowerShop For 100 orders a month: $79.95

  Why pay that much money to TF if you are doing all the work to get the traffic to your site that is producing all of these orders ?
  
  My guess is folks are afraid of change - But change is exactly what is needed.
  
  Lets compare the cost of an ezflowerShop.com florist template, complete, turnkey (turn key)ecommerce flower shop solution, complete with an image library to get you started! ....including startup cost with 2 years of TF web site (assuming 100 orders a month on average)
  
  EZFLOWERSHOP Web Site Pre-Loaded with Teleflora catalog, including images, promotional copy for each item and suggested prices.
  
  Startup 595.00
  Hosting 79.95 per month (x 23 - two years - first month is always free)=1838.85
  Site Acquisition and Development fee 595.00 ---------------------------------------------------
  Total fees for ezflowerShop web site for 2 years = $2433.85
  
  TF web site fees for 24 months on 100 orders per month
  TF monthly website fee: $ 80.00 x 24 months = $1920.00
  TF per-order fee ($3.45ea x 100 orders): $345.00 x 24 months = 4680.00
  ----------------------------------------------------
  Total fees for a web site (not including your monthly membership fees) = $8280.00
