Isn't it cheaper if
we just buy the plants ourselves?
At first it may seem so, but ask yourself these questions:
- Who in our office will look after the indoor plants? How
much time does it add up to?
- Who in our office has the skill, or time?
- How much are delivery costs?
- What happens if the plants start looking tired? Does
that mean we have to go through the whole expense and exercise
again – looking, shopping, negotiating?
- What happens when we have VIP’s dropping in and
we suddenly realize the plants are a disaster?
These are some of the typical reasons our clients decide
it’s cheaper and more convenient to call in The Plant
Man to take care of all their indoor
plant hiring needs.
