ABOUT THIS EPISODE

Saul Molla Cuesta breaks down the operational side of selling emotion: flowers and gifts have to arrive fresh, on time, and on the day the customer chose.

FlowerStore.ph began in 2017 around a simple customer problem: sending flowers in the Philippines was often expensive, unreliable, or required too much lead time. Saul discusses the work behind same-day gifting, where sourcing, product quality, delivery, and customer service all meet one deadline.

QUESTIONS ANSWERED
