Designing products for the long run — on screens and on trails

A flower-delivery service for the elite audience

Problem statement — A flower seller with a brick-and-mortar store in MG road, Bangalore wants to increase the footfall in his shop + wants to improve his sales.

Assumptions made —

  • Whatsapp Business Support provided
  • Delivery & logistics provided
  • Shop located in a busy metropolitan street with a cosmopolitan audience

Target Audience

  • Luxury is hard to define; it’s expensive but not overpriced. It’s high-quality and long-lasting, but futuristic. It’s aesthetically pleasing but unique.
  • Luxury flowers are often high-quality and reflect craftsmanship, thoughtfulness, and attention to detail.
  • At a luxury store, you expect top-notch customer service from helpful, knowledgeable, and accommodating employees.
  • Luxury products are often easier to use and a joy to use. And yes, all of these extra features and details often lead to higher prices that put them out of reach for people with more modest budgets. Still, there’s a reason why the adage “you get what you pay for” still endures. For example, there’s the perception that luxury items are for people obsessed with brand recognition and the status it confers on their owners.
