Indoor plants can beautify almost any space in offices, stores, lobbies, and public areas; they’re also a graceful addition to homes and apartments. Yet relatively few of us have a green thumb or the time and inclination to tend to plants in our places of business or homes. The basic services of an indoor plant specialist include care, feeding, and maintenance of plants on a regularly scheduled basis. You can also offer to design new plantings, providing installation only or making seasonal and holiday changes. That’s what it is called as the indoor plant care service. You can make this service become your business, so you can earn some money later.
If you want to inform the other people about your service, you can post ads and flyers at greenhouses, garden supply stores, and home supply stores. Place ads in area newspapers and shopping guides. Ask friends and relatives to spread the word about your availability; offer a bonus to clients who refer new business to you. Contact the reception desk, office manager, and maintenance departments of large businesses in your area and offer your services. Send letters to the office managers of doctors, lawyers, and other professionals in your area.
You can charge by the hour or use a flat rate per plant after you calculate the amount of time required for each. In addition to hourly charges, you bill for fertilizer, cleaners, and replacement of plants that are dead or dying. If you design and install new plantings, you should charge by the hour, plus the cost of new plants.
