About the programme

Where floristry meets financial thinking

Most floristry education stops at technique. Feelgooddeals starts there and keeps going — into pricing structures, supplier negotiation, seasonal inventory planning, and client acquisition for studios of any size.

The curriculum was built after reviewing what practising florists actually struggled with when moving from freelance work to a structured business. Gaps in knowledge around margins, wholesale sourcing, and event contract management kept appearing.

Content is delivered through structured lectures with supporting materials. Participants follow a set sequence — each module assumes the previous one is complete. There are no skippable sections, because the logic builds cumulatively.

The programme is available entirely online. Participants from over 30 countries have completed at least one module, and the material is written to reflect varied market conditions rather than a single regional context.

The people behind it

Instructors and subject contributors

Each module is led by someone with direct working experience in the relevant area — not generalist educators brought in to cover a topic.

Orla Devereaux, Lead Instructor in Floral Design

Orla Devereaux

Lead Instructor

Ran a boutique floral studio in Dublin for eleven years before moving into education. Covers sourcing, seasonal planning, and the mechanics of studio pricing. Practical in approach — focused on what actually affects margin.

Bastian Kroft, Business Strategy Mentor

Bastian Kroft

Business Strategy

Worked as a commercial consultant for independent retailers across Europe before specialising in creative small businesses. Leads the modules on client acquisition, contract structure, and scaling from freelance to studio operations.

Yuki Tannenwald

Event Specialist

Contributes the event-scale module based on twelve years coordinating large-format floral installations for hospitality clients. Covers logistics, bulk ordering, and timeline management for weddings and corporate events.

How the curriculum is structured

Sequential delivery, cumulative logic

The programme does not function as a library of standalone topics. Each lecture assumes the previous one is complete. Participants who skip ahead consistently report confusion at the point where business concepts depend on design knowledge established earlier.

Lectures are recorded with supporting PDFs, worked examples, and supplier reference sheets. There are no live sessions — participants work through material at their own pace within each module's structure.

Before

Pricing set by guesswork or competitor observation
Wholesale sourcing done ad hoc, no supplier relationships
Event quotes built without accounting for labour time

After

Cost-per-stem calculations with margin targets set
Structured supplier shortlist with seasonal backup options
Event contracts that reflect actual production costs
Structured learning materials and floral design reference content
