Episode 326: Just Add Flowers: Inside That Flower Feeling’s Mission to Make Flowers an Everyday Habit
Episode 326: In this episode, Vonda and Lori welcome Vanessa Leite, Executive Director of That Flower Feeling, for a timely conversation about the industry-wide marketing movement designed to keep flowers top-of-mind beyond the “marrying and burying” peaks. Vanessa shares her nonprofit leadership journey, how the initiative launched with a bold industry investment, and why the goal is bigger than a single campaign—it’s about building everyday flower-buying into modern life.
You’ll hear what’s behind the new “Just Add Flowers” campaign, what early performance metrics are showing across major social platforms, and why a third-party test market delivered a notable lift in local floral sales. Vanessa also breaks down how florists can use the free (and contributor-level customizable) marketing assets, why participation matters for long-term industry growth, and what’s coming next—including a mid-year campaign check-in webinar.
