It was great to see Ryan Freeman of Florist 2.0, and the creator of FlowerChat, mentioned on this list in Canadian Florist magazine. He and the others were recognized for their pursuit of training/education, their leadership and initiative within their organizations and the industry as a whole, and their track record of giving back to the floral industry.

With those criteria it’s hard to imagine a better candidate than Ryan. FlowerChat has helped countless florists over the years and Ryan has been a leader in helping florists understand and use SEO and social marketing to be more successful.
