Flower farmer and florist Georgie Newbery has been running Common Farm Flowers as a successful lifestyle business since 2009. Fed up with the principles of growing businesses for the sake of it, and creating businesses which end up consuming not only materials, but the people who work for them, Georgie has developed a new way of creating a business which works for the founder, on the founder’s terms.
Join Georgie for a two hour session in which she strips the principles of business creation back to the basic premise and shares how it’s possible to use an examination of your objectives and research to create a cashflow forecast which can provide enough to pay for your life.
This is not a workshop for those who need a month in the Bahamas in winter, or a flash car to prove their worth. This is a workshop for people who are looking for a way to make a worthwhile life being paid to do a job they have created themselves, and which is valuable to them, their customers, and hopefully the planet too.
The phrase, ‘What is enough?’ was given Georgie by Jane Lindsey of Snapdragon Life, another fine example of a lifestyle business run on the terms of the founder. In this workshop Georgie will help you pinpoint your enough and work back from that to scale your product in order a worthwhile life.
This workshop is suitable for anyone trying to find a way to turn their passion in to a business. Georgie uses flower farming as a metaphor, but the principles of this workshop can be applied to any small creative business.
