Power Hour

Before meeting with Rona for a one to one session, we thought we were pretty social media savvy at Lucy MacNicoll Floral Design. How wrong we were! Rona’s encyclopaedic insight regarding all things tech alongside her thorough and descriptive breakdown of every possible social media platform, meant we left feeling a lot more informed and totally inspired. Thanks to Rona, our brand handwriting is now consistent across all of our platforms and we now see social media as an integral part of enhancing the business rather than just another thing to add to the To-Do List. Thank you Rona.

We wanted to take our social media on to the next level and we felt it was time to learn more after mastering the basics. Rona’s training involved so much more than ‘how to’ do social media. She helped Eden Blooms to get a consistent brand message across all our platforms, showed us how to prioritise and focus our goals and even gave us a great new idea for achieving our floral ambitions. Rona floats in like a spring breeze, bringing warmth and new life to our business. It’s always a pleasure to work with Rona and the results we see from the changes she suggests are immediate. We're happy clients and happy florists!

We recently used Rona to help get our heads round how we could improve our presence on social media and understand where we should be focusing our efforts. Rona really is the 'font of all knowledge' on social media. She's the 'girl in the know'. She has managed to de-mystify many aspects. And the world of social media does not seem such a scary place now...we're even starting to enjoy it and love the fact that its so measurable. Thank you Rona for switching on our 'Social Media' light bulb.

I met up with Rona for a 121 Consultancy Session. I'd approached Rona as I needed some guidance with writing blog posts for my new business venture (as well as my existing business as I was well down on my target set last November of a blog post a month). Rona’s research into all the social media platforms for my two businesses was so impressive, without looking at a notebook once, she gave me honest feedback with regard to my management of all the sites I use and an appraisal on where I could improve certain areas to raise my profile and enhance my brand. I came away with so much more than I had anticipated and would definitely see Rona again on a regular basis for a 121 session. For people like me who respond to goals and objectives, it's vital to have someone help keep me on task and motivated. Rona is an expert in her field and a font of knowledge on how to use Social Media effectively for florists. I have a huge amount of energy and enthusiasm but sometimes feel overwhelmed by all the decisions and things to do with running a business. Social Media is not my area of expertise, but I recognise that I need it to make a difference to my business and with Rona’s help and expert tuition, I know I’ll soon see the changes I’ve made benefit my new business.

Here at David Austin Roses, we are passionate about improving and doing things better, but we don’t always have the answers. Working with Rona helped us achieve this mission for continuous improvement, whilst delivering some very tangible assets. Her gift is the ability to listen and interpret what you are looking for; suggesting ideas and solutions and executing them perfectly. Rona in fact took everything we did to the next level. More importantly, Rona was fantastic to work with – very straightforward, supportive and extremely helpful. It is like adding an editor to your team where words, imagery or ideas, are carefully curated to be beautiful, professional and deliver everything that your brand demands. For us, this is the beginning of the journey with Rona and we are excited to start our next chapter.

There would appear to be nothing that Rona doesn’t know about social media. I had my first social media lesson with Rona a couple of years ago. I then attended her Social Media for Florists Workshop and I’ve just had a follow up social media session with her to reinforce what I’ve learned and also to look ahead at how I can improve the social media aspect for our business. Informative, instructive, intuitive and patient are words that immediately spring to mind! She has taught me and my team that social media is something which can genuinely enhance a business and that it is nothing to be frightened of!
