You Can't Smell Flowers Online: The Roses Only Story | #117

In this episode of Add To Cart, we are joined by Kelly Taggart, CEO at Roses Only. Kelly has had an incredible journey as well, starting as an accountant in the business, moving into COO by the age of 30 and is now CEO of the Roses Only Group. The Roses Only Group includes of course Roses Only, but also Fruit Only, Hampers Only, Wine Only, and my original client, 1300 Flowers. They now have over 300 staff and 10 floral studios nationally. In this episode Kelly shares the ups and downs at Roses Only including how they recovered from $30K in the bank with an upcoming $60K wage bill. She also shares how the national team pulls together to keep a same day delivery promise and gives her advice to others who are looking to gain more senior positions at a young age.
