A panel of international experts will provide insight on the latest in-store promotions and trends that are driving consumer purchases overseas.

Tim Huckabee AIFSE, President of FloralStrategies, was born, raised and educated in Connecticut. He moved to nearby New York City in 1993 where he started working at Surroundings Flowers, a luxury flower shop catering to the city’s movers and shakers. Tim learned every aspect of the flower business while working there, from phone sales to customer service, dealing with walk-ins and handling the store’s wire out business. He frequently spoke to florists in his daily duties and quickly realized there was a dire lack of sales and service training in the industry. Tim was motivated to address this huge gap in floral education and in 1997 he left the Surroundings to launch his own company, FloralStrategies. The concept was simple: bring customer services, sales and POS training right to the flower shop and train the staff in the comfort of the store, regardless of location. Closing in on nearly one million travel miles, Tim and his staff of trainers have visited over 5000 retailers from Australia to Canada, Dublin Ireland to Dublin Ohio – and just about everywhere in between!

Madelon Balm received her MBA from Erasmus University, specializing in marketing. As a consumer, she wondered why she had to throw her flowers away in just three days, and started to examine the traditional supply chain which was extremely supply driven at that time. She founded Roselife in 2007 and has since identified many opportunities for improvement, with much success. Madelon recently led a successful loyalty promotion program at PLUS Supermarket, a franchise organization with 260 stores in the Netherlands. Madelon will review how she implemented the campaign in the months leading up to Mother’s Day in 2015 which saw sales increase by 14% within an 8 week promotional campaign. Madelon is eager to share her methods and open up discussion on how US stores can do the same. Steve Swainston is the Managing Director at The Flower Hub UK

Keynote LUNCH Doug Stephens, Retail Prophet 11:30am - 12:00pm Lunch 12:00pm - 1:00pm Keynote Presentation

What’s In-Store? Join retail business strategy expert Douglas Stephens, as he brings his wealth of experience and in-depth knowledge to the floral industry. What are the latest retail trends? How are demographic and technological shifts affecting your customer base? What can your company do to stay ahead of the curve? To help your company excel in the ultra-competitive realm of retail, Stephens is constantly collecting data and case studies—in a variety of fields—to give you strategies that are broad in scope, yet focused in purpose. Glimpse into the future of retail stores, market disruptors and consumer purchasing. Douglas Stephens is one of the most influential retail futurists on the planet. His talks have been referred to as “required listening” for any company that orbits the retail world. Stephens shows companies how to stay ahead of the changing mega-trends in demographics, economics, and technology that are resetting the industry—and, what it takes to be truly innovative. The founder of Retail Prophet, and rated among the Top 50 Retail Influencers by Vend, Doug Stephens is one of the world’s foremost retail and consumer futurists. His research and insights have helped major organizations—such as Air Miles, Home Depot, Disney, and Intel— understand exactly how mega-trends in demographics, economics, technology, and media are forever altering consumer/brand relationships. And he explains what they need to do to adapt, evolve, and innovate. Drawing on his 20 years of experience, Stephens analyzes media trends, financial climates, demographic shifts, emerging technologies, and everything in between to provide an unrivalled insight into consumer trends. Too often, companies make the mistake of reacting purely to what’s going on right now, instead of understanding what’s going to happen.

Douglas Stephens gives his audiences a clear view of what’s on the horizon. Stephens’ thinking has influenced many of the world’s best-known retailers and brands, including Target, WestJet, Crayola, and Microsoft. Prior to founding Retail Prophet, Stephens spent 20 years in retail, holding senior international roles, including the leadership of one of New York City’s most iconic retail chains. He is a regular guest expert on CTV’s acclaimed tech television series App Central; co-host of new retailfocused web series The Future In Store; the syndicated retail columnist for CBC Radio Canada; and appears regularly on Canada AM, Business News Network, and BBC Radio 1. Stephens’ book, The Retail Revival, documents the rise of an incredible new era of consumerism leading to a complete redefinition of what retail is. His other writing is often featured in publications such as The Wall Street Journal, Forbes, the National Post, The Globe and Mail, Chicago Tribune, Fortune Magazine, Business Insider, Daily Beast, and the Toronto Star, among many others.
