Spring, first of all, we associate not only with the awakening of nature, but also with International Women's Day - March 8. If you remember the history, then this day has become a symbol of the independence and freedom of women. And where, if not in business, can a woman become independent and free? the site offers to get acquainted with interesting business ideas for real and free women!

Our opinion is that a woman in business achieves great success, regardless of occupation and field of activity. This is facilitated, in the good sense of these words, by female stubbornness and perseverance. Women always achieve their goals! And they reach much faster if they are not interfered with. Yes, even if it interferes, it turns out a little slower, but much brighter, to spite Julia from the next entrance. I would like, frankly, to look at this "dared man" who dared to stand between a woman and her goal.

A woman shows her best qualities - purposefulness, leadership, patience, prudence - not only in business, but also in everyday life. Think for yourself, for example, who would agree to endure a rather long and painful hair removal procedure? And, most importantly, for what?

But women can. They can do everything! Including starting a successful business. They would be interesting. And if they don’t have it, then they will definitely find it, for example, with us!

1.

The beauty industry has become golden and very profitable - thanks to the female desire to look better. Perhaps one of the most popular ideas for women's business - hair extension.

A procedure that can be learned in a few days and does not require serious equipment. And the demand generated in this niche is stable and capacious. There are enough clients for everyone - both salons and private masters.

2.

This idea of ​​women's business is not one hundred years old. And we are confident in its future - the demand will be constant. This means that the offers of depilation services will find their customers.

One of the most popular hair removal methods is shugaring. Hair removal with sugar paste. In this business area, you can make money on depilation by shugaring, as well as on the production of this paste. No equipment required, ingredients are available. A few hours of free time - and you are in a successful business.

3.

Manicure is another pillar of female beauty. Shapes, colors and types of manicure are at the forefront of fashion trends and seasons. There are a lot of means and methods for restoring the beauty of female nails. There are also many masters in this women's business. However, the demand is not decreasing.

Manicure is an “endless” type of income for women, if you approach with a rolling pin. Excuse me - approach with ingenuity! Everything should be beautiful. Entry into this business is also minimal in cost, like the previous ideas. Every fashionista who takes care of herself visits a manicurist once every 2-3 weeks. That is, high-quality services quickly acquire regular customers. This is the main secret of this ingenuous business.

4.

Russia is one of the world's consumers of fresh cut flowers. Annual consumption is estimated at 1.77 billion pieces. And this is only for large suppliers, excluding small ones. In fact, this market is even more capacious - flower business experts estimate.

It is in Russia that women are given a huge number of bouquets. Unfortunately, these statistics do not reflect the uniform coverage of all women, and annoying excesses happen - for some, all the flowers, and for some, one ice cream ...

In any case, on the main women's holiday, few women will escape a wonderful fate. In just one day - March 8 - flower shops are able to make revenue comparable to seasonal earnings. Flower business is very profitable.

5.

One of the most popular areas of business is the marriage business. Many single women dream of arranging their own destiny. Disillusioned with their compatriots, they turn their attention to foreign suitors.

And then there is a huge field for earning, for example, you can help them look for foreign men and correspond with them. That is, to act as an intermediary-translator. Or organize your own marriage agency specializing in foreign acquaintances. Without any sedition, of course.

Why is this a women's business? Think for yourself - would a woman entrust her heart secret to a man?

The miracle of nature is the birth of a new life. And women rightfully possess this miracle. Before the birth of a child, many women think about what to do on maternity leave? Earn to with minimal effort and little earnings.

We suggest that you familiarize yourself with this type of women's business. And you can open a store for pregnant women - also a stable business.

Every year, on March 8, we celebrate International Women's Day. This age-old holiday is marked by the achievements of women in the political, economic and social fields. But today this holiday does not carry political convictions, but correlates with the Day of Spring, Women's Beauty, Love and Attention. Traditionally, on March 8, it is customary for women to give flowers. After all, flowers are a symbol of love and respect. Most often, women are given tulips on this day. It is tulips that are considered a kind of symbols of the coming spring.

But not only the beautiful half of humanity is waiting for this holiday, experienced entrepreneurs are also eagerly preparing for the spring holiday. After all, on this day you can make good money selling flowers.

On the eve of the holiday on March 8 Reconomica tells you all the secrets of selling tulips. We interviewed Oksana Frolova, who not only accepts congratulations on this day, but also helps others to please their loved ones. A woman is selling tulips. From her story, you will not only learn a lot of useful information about tulips, but you will also be able to organize your own small business and earn a good amount in just 3 days.

Businessmen look forward to March 8 holiday

There is very little time left before this wonderful holiday.

On the eve of March 8, millions of men rush in search of flowers for their lovely ladies. Moreover, not only men buy flowers on March 8, women also buy them willingly: as a gift for mom, grandmother, girlfriend or employee. Experienced entrepreneurs are looking forward to this holiday all year long.

There is a saying - one day feeds the year. It is appropriate here, especially for flower sellers.

If you have never worked with flowers, your main profession is a plumber or a nurse, nothing prevents you from taking a day off from work for 3 days and earning some extra money. You can earn extra money here in different ways.

Earnings can be from 1500 rubles. up to 100,000 rubles (more is possible, but there are already big risks and investments), and this is all in three days. Even a student can earn here, I think a student will need 3,000-5,000 rubles.

Flower sellers and suppliers are preparing for cooperation

Florists are preparing for this holiday in advance, renting additional warehouses, because they have to buy dozens of times more flowers than on ordinary days. We closely monitor wholesale prices for flowers, greenery and packaging from suppliers. There are many wholesale flower suppliers now, the prices are different for everyone. You should not buy flowers in bulk from the first supplier you come across, you need to ask the price.

Tulips in stock

Wholesale suppliers are also waiting for this holiday all year round, the price of flowers is raised, sometimes two or three times more expensive than usual. Therefore, florists buy large batches of flowers in advance, the most greedy and enterprising ones take flowers a month in advance. They keep them in their warehouses until the holiday. The quality and freshness of such flowers leave much to be desired, but the buyer is satisfied with the price, such flowers are usually cheaper.

When to buy and how to store flowers

It is more rational to buy a batch of flowers two weeks before the holiday. This is the golden mean. The price has not yet had time to take off much, but already a little more expensive than usual. Flowers can be safely stored in a warehouse for two weeks, the warehouse must be cold.

The most optimal temperature in the warehouse is + 5 ºС, 10 ºС of heat is the maximum temperature. If the temperature is higher, the flowers will lose their quality and freshness.

There is another secret. Flowers should be stored all this time without water. Yes, without water! All flowers are individually wrapped.

Roses are packed in cardboard packaging, chrysanthemums are packed in cellophane packaging. The packaging must not be removed!

You just need to carefully fold, not to put, but to fold the packages with flowers, if the storage space allows, then it is better not to stack the packages with flowers on top of each other. Store in a dark cool place. Three days before the holiday, the flowers must be put in water. The most important thing here is to cut the legs of the flowers! If you don't, your flowers won't last even two hours! The leg of any flower is clogged from the air, if you do not cut it and simply put it in water, the flower will not be able to drink water and will die. There is a secret here too!

Legs must be trimmed properly.

In roses, the legs are cut with a knife or secateurs at an angle of 45 degrees. In chrysanthemums, it is better to break the leg, rather than cut it. So the chrysanthemum drinks water better, retains its freshness and beauty longer.

Well, now about the most important thing.

Do I need an IP to sell tulips by March 8

Here you can do without registration IP. It is not necessary to register an IP for three days. There are two options for selling tulips on March 8: legal and not quite legal. Let's consider everything in order.

Illegal sales method

To do this, you need to buy a batch of tulips in bulk. And just sell them. You can sell anywhere. You can stand near any shopping center or in any other passable place. But here you may have problems with the law, any police officer can ask you for documents for trading, but you do not have them.

There will be an administrative penalty, a fine

As a rule, a warning is issued for the first time, and a fine can range from 500 rubles to 2,500 rubles. Some people are happy with it, some not so much.

You can also collect an order for tulips in advance, this can be done through your employees, friends and acquaintances. You can order a certain number of flowers. You will count everything, but when you take orders, it is better to take an advance payment so that the customer does not refuse the order, and you do not lose money.

So, the order is ready. You just have to buy tulips in bulk, collect and breed orders. Tulips are packed by 20 pieces in a pack. Based on the order you have collected, buy as many packs.

If you need 100 tulips, buy 5 packs. Color can be different, can be all the same. Here I will make a reservation, 100 pcs. tulips for the wholesale base - this is not wholesale, the price may be slightly overpriced.

Some bases sell wholesale tulips, wholesale starts from 500-1000 pieces. Find out everything in advance and discuss with the supplier.

Legal way to make money

You need to take a trade permit from the administration, on such holidays a trade permit (for three days) is given free of charge. As a rule, by March 8, the administration has already scheduled such sales points for flowers in advance. You need to choose the best, passable place. But this must be done in a month, or even two, otherwise all the best places will be sorted out.

There is another secret. How to quickly and 100% get permission to trade from the administration. You can also conclude a short-term lease agreement with any shopping center or store, they conclude such agreements, provide a platform for trading, but this is not free.

You can rent a retail outlet in a large store.

The cost of such a lease is different everywhere, somewhere around 1000 rubles / day, somewhere around 3000 rubles / day.

As I said, everything needs to be discussed in advance and look for the best option for yourself. So, having decided on the place of trade, found a flower supplier, what to do next? And then - earn!

How to choose good tulips, how to store until the holiday

Tulips in a cold room without water can lie for two to three weeks. Storage temperature +4, but not higher than 7ºС. When choosing tulips, you need to listen to them. Yes, just listen.

Good, fresh tulips crunch, when you press a little on a pack of tulips, a crunch is immediately heard. If there is no crunch, the flowers are not fresh, they cannot be stored for a long time.

Tulips are also stored without water, before selling, you need to trim the legs, put on the water. Tulip drinks quickly, two hours is enough, he will drink enough water and will look great, as if he had just been cut.

The main thing is that before putting tulips into the water, you can not remove the packaging, it can be removed when the tulip is completely drunk, it becomes strong and hard.

Tulips are very sensitive to light and become soft when stored. If you do not follow all the rules, the tulip will be uneven, it will take the shape of the letter “C”. And no one will buy crooked and bent tulips from you.

The most popular varieties of tulips

The variety of tulips also plays an important role. There are many sorts.

My favorite varieties are: Strong Gold (yellow), Lalibella (orange), Kung Fu (pink), Barcelona (lilac).

These are proven, reliable varieties.

You can choose any other variety, but in advance, learn more about tulip varieties from knowledgeable people, read on the Internet or elsewhere.

What else do you need to make money on Women's Day

You have chosen a place for sale, bought flowers. What else is needed? Need packaging. The packaging isn't cheap. You don't need to buy a lot of packages.

• Enough to buy a few rolls " micas” is a transparent package. It costs approximately 150-250 rubles. per roll. Approximately 1000 tulips need 2-3 rolls.
• Need ribbon Also, don't buy too much. Enough 2-3 rolls of different colors. The cost of the tape is 35-50 rubles. per roll. One roll of tape is enough for 1000 tulips.
• Also for sale ready-made packaging for tulips, these are bags in the form of little bags. They are sold in packs, 100 pieces in a pack. The cost of one bag is 3.5 rubles to 7 rubles.
• Will need more scissors, stapler, vases(you can use small buckets where you will put tulips).

We make an "aquarium" for flowers

If you will be selling tulips on the street, you may need a crate (among "florists" is called "aquarium" for flowers). This is a kind of showcase. It will not be possible to do without it if there is negative weather on March 8.

This is a small structure, it can be made of plywood or cardboard, three sides of which are completely closed, and one side is glass (so that people can see your flowers). There must be doors so that you can get flowers. If it is very cold, this showcase can be heated with ordinary candles, 3-4 pieces will be enough. You will need a thermometer to monitor the temperature. Tulips can not be heated if the temperature is at least 0ºС, if it is lower, the flowers will freeze.

You can also sell tulips from a car, they will be warm and comfortable there, but for this you will need a bright sign so that people can see you and understand that you are selling tulips.

How much can you earn selling tulips on March 8

I will give some calculations, examples.

The wholesale price for tulips is different: from 25 rubles. up to 45 rubles Retail price for tulips from 60 rubles. up to 100 rubles As always, we take the golden mean.

We take 100 tulips × 35 rubles. = 3500 rubles. + packaging 200 rubles. + ribbon 50 rubles. = 3750 rubles. (this is an investment)

We sell 100 tulips for 70 rubles, we get - 7000 rubles.

Net profit - 3250 rubles.

Not bad, for example, for a student, 100 tulips can be sold in one hour.

We take 500 tulips × 35 rubles. = 17500 rubles. + packing (2 rolls) 400 rub. + ribbon 100 rubles. = 18,000 rubles. (attachments).

We sell tulips for 70 rubles, we get - 35,000 rubles.

Profit 35,000 - 18,000 \u003d 17,000 rubles.

Fine. We earned the average salary of a nurse in 3 days.

We take 2000 tulips × 35 rubles. = 70,000 rubles. + packaging 800 rubles. + ribbon 200 rubles. = 71,000 rubles.

We sell: 2000 × 70 = 140,000 rubles.

Profit: 140,000 - 71,000 \u003d 69,000 rubles.

Great. Earn 69,000 rubles in 3 days. is a good income.

How much you can earn is up to you. How many tulips you want to buy in bulk is your desire. You can really make money.

Finally, I can give you one more piece of advice. There are a lot of people who want to earn extra money by March 8 on flowers. Sell ​​your flowers no cheaper and no more expensive than your competitors.

All these days, keep the price, do not lower it. To earn as much as possible and sell all the flowers without a trace, you need to keep the price until March 8, before lunch. After 14:00, the price must be reduced until the sale is complete.

The idea involves starting the main work in the fall, but allowing you to see the fruits in the spring, or rather on the holiday of March 8. When many women are given flowers in pots or baskets. Not room ones, but the so-called "forcing", as always made in Holland.

But let's go in order.

A few years ago, after selling autumn bulbs in the store, I had about thirty hyacinth bulbs left. Snow had already fallen on the street, and there was no hope that the remains would be sold even at a reduced price.

I knew in theory that hyacinths can be planted in pots and heat treated to make them bloom at home. This process is called "forcing".

Knowing the theory, I took up practice, fortunately, at this time there is little work in the store.

I took plastic pots of different diameters, filled them with moist earth and planted hyacinths - somewhere in one, somewhere in three. I deepened the bulbs along the “shoulders”, like home bulbs (hypeastrum, clivia, etc.), and not like in the open ground “to the third depth of the bulb”. It turned out 18 pots.

Now it was necessary to provide the plantings with a distillation temperature of no higher than 5 degrees for at least two months. The right temperature is in our refrigerators (not freezers). That's just 18 pots, even small ones, in the refrigerator would be very stressful for my family. In our five-story brick building, we owned a closet in the basement, in which we stored potatoes in the winter. True, it was not stored there very well, it sprouted already in February. That's where I decided to arrange a refrigerator.

I put the pots in a cardboard box, dragged them into the basement. And ... safely forgot.

I already remembered February 18 - I remembered this date well, because later it became the starting point. She got alarmed and ran dragged the box from the basement. I opened the box - 5-7 cm tufts of pale green leaves stuck out of all the bulbs.

Three windows of my apartment faced north, one faced south. Since I did not yet know how the hyacinths would react to the light, at first I put the pots on the windowsills of the northern windows, later (after 3 days) I moved several pots to the southern one.

On the northern windows, the arrows of the peduncles leaned towards the light, so in order to align them, it was necessary to turn the pots from time to time. But the inflorescences turned out to be fluffy, compact. On the southern window, hyacinths bloomed earlier, the arrows did not bend, but the peduncles themselves began to quickly stretch, the distances between individual flowers increased, which violated the compactness of the inflorescence and did not look very beautiful. I quickly moved them to the north.

Later, I learned to regulate the onset of flowering by changing the temperature (I opened or closed the window). But the date, February 18, turned out to be optimal for the timing of exposing flowers to heat (15-18 degrees) to light (shadow side) so that they bloom by March 8.

I brought flowers to the store on March 6th. Enough for 15 minutes of trading, although I put a markup of 400% of the purchase price of the bulb.

The following year, I took up forcing deliberately. Stocked up with 300 bulbs of hyacinths, daffodils and muscariae (mouse hyacinths). I used plastic glasses for beer as pots, in which I pierced the bottoms. Muscaria (mouse hyacinths) need a temperature of forcing on the windowsill lower by 2-3 degrees, and they are driven out faster for several days. Daffodils are driven out longer than hyacinths and are more favorable to the sun.

The landing took me about 3 days. Again she stuffed the containers with bulbs into cardboard boxes and “forgotten” for the whole winter. Of course, on February 20, the flowers occupied all the horizontal planes on the furniture in my apartment, but in the end this inconvenience lasts only two weeks.

A markup of 400% was fine with me, but still the price of my "forcing" was 1.5 times lower than the Dutch one and excluded travel expenses. Flowers for March 8 are sold in full, without a trace. So you can imagine the benefits.

About prices. I take bulbs from wholesalers.

To date: bulbs of ordinary varieties of crocuses - 1.3-1.8 rubles. per piece You will need 5 pcs. on a pot (3-5 rubles). Sale 80-100 rubles.
Muscaria - 4-6 rubles. per piece On a pot 3-5 pieces. Accordingly, the sale is 80-100 rubles.
Daffodils - 8-15 per piece. Per pot 1-3-5 pcs. 80-150-200 rub.
Hyacinths - 20-35 per piece. Per pot 1-3-5 pcs. 100-200-300 rub.

I try not to get involved with tulips - in order to get a high-quality distillation, they need temperature changes, and this is troublesome. I only do it when necessary.

If it is not possible to purchase bulbs from wholesalers, then now there are sales in many stores, where prices are about the same as I indicated. True, wholesalers also begin seasonal discounts up to 40%.

By the way, special elite bulbs for forcing will appear on sale, their flowering is luxurious, but the price matches. I advise you to get by with simple varieties, in winter they look luxurious.

Even if you do not have your own store and have no desire to engage in trade, even if only two days before March 8, you can still agree with any flower shop on the implementation - they are unlikely to refuse, because there are no problems and no costs. Only in this case you will have to give up the price, but you will still win, especially if you distribute the flowers in small batches to different stores. Just make sure that the flowers upon delivery are still in the budding stage and they are given a place in the store cool enough from 5 to 15 degrees for a longer preservation of the presentation.

If there is no basement or cellar, but you want to try, then there is another way of heat treatment.

In the garden or in the summer cottage, dig holes in the fall for the boxes to be installed with a margin of 15-20 cm. Separately store dry earth for filling the holes. At the end of November, carry out planting work in containers, place them in boxes, which, in turn, should be placed in dug holes and covered with prepared soil, perhaps after covering the boxes with some kind of canvas to make it easier to get in February.

That's basically the whole idea, not very burdensome, but giving a certain annual income.

We were given, perhaps, the best place for trading that an entrepreneur could wish for: right at the main entrance to the Greenwich shopping center. Especially for our flower shop on wheels, the administration of the shopping center kindly allocated a parking space and, in general, coordinated this operation at their own peril and risk. Among ourselves, by the way, we gave her the code name "Green Tulip".

Personally, I don't like tulips. In general, I'm afraid of them. After all, it was in the tulip that Thumbelina was born. Well, and to everything else, flowers are a perishable commodity. We didn't have much time. Flowers had to be packed hard. Freezing them is one of the main risks in winter for this business. Then just to the dump. Among other things, I had to create a kind of signboard in a short time. I tried very hard to draw the way true street vendors do.

The goods were ready and carefully heated from the salon. Outdoor advertising has been mounted, the price has been determined - 66 rubles. I mentally put an hour and ten minutes on the dial. Go. The first clients appeared in about 8 minutes. Judging by my observations, these were the owners of one of the Greenwich outlets. They were in a hurry. One of the young people asked: “How much do they usually give?” I, as an expert florist with great experience, said that 3, 5, 7, 9 or 11. More is better. "Let's go nine." 594 rubles in my pocket.

By the way, it should be noted that we were engaged in the implementation legally. We had both checks and stamps. Most of our flower colleagues, who also spontaneously sell from cars, are not friends with the law and trade on hot March days at the risk of their pockets and even freedom. Have you ever asked a florist for a check or permits?

Valeria Dostovalova, expert of the Accounting.Contour service:

Entrepreneurs selling tulips from the trunk face fines under the Code of Administrative Offenses, there are three relevant articles. The procedure is something like this: a failed trader will be taken to the police station, where they will draw up a protocol on an administrative offense. Then they will be released, and the case will be handed over to a justice of the peace, after which, in a month and a half, they will be summoned to court, where the court will impose a fine. When we receive payment for flowers, this is personal income tax. And there is responsibility under the Criminal Code for tax evasion under Article 198. Punishable by a fine in the amount of one hundred thousand to three hundred thousand rubles, or arrest for a term of four to six months, or imprisonment for a term of up to one year.

Time flies, and "beautiful, fresh tulips from Holland" continue to remain in our trunk for the most part. The last twenty minutes have gone. I start shouting loudly: “Tulips-tulips. Let's see. Let's buy. Guys, let's buy tulips. The situation changes radically when a woman in an artificial fur coat appears on the horizon. She wonders what the price will be if you take the entire balance. It's already wholesale, guys. There are 55 tulips in the car. At first, I propose to buy everything for 50. Then I start dumping and give 45 rubles apiece. She said she would think about it and come back, but disappeared towards the bus stop.

Time is over. I get money. In 67 minutes, photographer Igor and I earned 914 rubles. Let me remind you that we bought all this stuff for 2,310 rubles. We have not completed the task. Unless they froze well exactly by the sixty-sixth minute. Brief summary of the hour looked like this. We received 914 rubles by selling 16 tulips in a little over an hour. In the city center, on a pre-holiday day. In "Greenwich" and in the Dendropark across the road, the same tulips were sold for 50 rubles apiece.

But this was not the end. We have 50 tulips left.

Summarizing, we can say this. Flower business on March 6, 7, 8 and even 9 is, perhaps, a gold mine. Large wholesalers do not buy at 35 rubles per branch, as we do, but at 25, 20 or even cheaper. They sell at 50. This is a minimum of 100% profit. In order to recoup the costs of the "purchase", to earn 25,000 rubles, you need to sell from 800 to 1,000 tulips. It is difficult or simple, everyone decides for himself. However, I have learned a few simple things. Be legal to avoid sanctions. Don't be cold. Don't overprice. Don't buy more than you can sell. Flowers are not furniture - they will deteriorate quickly. Don't be fooled by the imaginary gold mine. Every business has its challenges and challenges. And finally, if in doubt, it's better to just give.

I'll start with personal memories.

The scheme there is simple: you buy flowers in bulk somewhere, and then from your car on the street you sell flowers twice as expensive.

But this year I wanted to increase turnover and earn more, and in some other way.

And the idea came to me: “why not wholesale flowers?” The idea is cool, but my brain began to resist the unknown. After all, I have no office, no money, not to mention the tulips themselves.

I got stuck.

I called my friends, no one knows where to get flowers, and no one has that much money either.

I thought “well, figs with these flowers, so there are plenty of things to do” and with a clear conscience I forgot about them ”

Until one fine day, when I got a call on the phone, and the man asked: “Do you sell tulips? Will you have 10 thousand tulips? I'm ready to buy tomorrow

It turned out that my ads have been indexed since last year and are among the first in Yandex for the key queries “buy tulips in bulk”.

From that moment on, I started looking for flowers, I called a bunch of suppliers, everywhere you first need to make an advance payment in order to book flowers. And this is logical.

I came up with a solution: First, I take an advance payment from the client at a higher price, then I give it to the supplier and earn on the price difference. A good scheme, but there are pitfalls here, namely, buyers are afraid to give such large sums of money to no one knows where.

For these purposes, you need an office in which people work and the impression of a full-fledged company is created. I don't have it. You can not immediately take money from the client, but then you have to pay for the advance payment yourself, and the buyer can change his mind and buy elsewhere.

Again a hopeless situation.

I asked myself the questions “How to find a solution? What should be done?" I began to look for investments so that I could buy flowers and then sell them at a higher price. I found people who have a lot of money, but they are not interested in investing big money in such a risky business.

After several days of reflection, I met with my good friend - Cyril, I explained the situation to him, and together in the dining room we began to think about what to do.

It turned out that he just has an acquaintance Vadim, who has his own large holding. There are no accidents, I thought, and together we went to Vadim's office to negotiate.

Vadim turned out to be a kind person with an open soul. He let us use part of his office and loaned us money for working capital without further ado. And in an instant, we destroyed all the barriers that were previously insurmountable.

On March 4, we started our activities as Agrocomplex of Novosibirsk 😀 Then I placed additional ads and an incredible number of people began to call my phone, I redirected them all to the office.

A crowd of people began to gather near the office doors, we could no longer cope with all this flow of people.

Nerves were on edge. People came, demanded flowers, we could not keep up with all the promises. It was some kind of chaos.

The first time I celebrated my birthday was in the refrigerator of a cargo van: we spent most of the day loading flowers and the longest thing we had to do was cut the labels from the flowers, because it was impossible to let the wholesale buyers know where we get the flowers.

For several nights I could not sleep, I close my eyes, and the brain continues to think, before my eyes there are tulips and a van where they need to be loaded. Many times in my head there were thoughts to quit the whole idea and stop. But I did not do this, because the amount of 25,000 thousand rubles was constantly spinning in my head, this was my minimum goal.

This all continued until March 7, we fulfilled all the obligations that we assumed. However, the clients refused part of the flower, and before March 8, we had about 1600 tulips in our hands, not in the best shape and a pale lilac color that no one liked.

It turned out that, in fact, all these days we worked to earn money for these flowers, and now all our net profit hangs in them.

There were about 200 flowers left, which we then presented.
