Bouqetmat's funding and profitability

Investing in Bouqetmat is an opportunity for a completely new sales channel - with no need to employ additional staff and no hourly restrictions. It is only up to you how you start this business. There are four possibilities: purchase, leasing, trial rental (up to 6 months) and long-term rental (over 6 months). Each of these forms has its advantages - we discuss them below in a practical and clear way, without going into numbers. However, if you need a specific calculation - please contact us and we will calculate everything individually.

How do others do it?

We know from experience that:

Leasing is chosen by around 75% of customers today - a solution that combines a reasonable instalment with the possibility of taking ownership of the equipment.

Buying is a choice for around 20% of companies - especially those with access to spare funds.

Rental (short and long-term) is chosen by around 5% of customers - mainly for testing purposes or limited liquidity.

Operating costs - what must always be taken into account?

Bouqetmat, like any 24/7 device, requires electricity and space.

The cost of electricity is usually in the low range and is already covered by the margin from the first daily bouquet.

Space - if you set up the Bouqetmat on your own land, there is no additional cost. When renting - treat it as rent for a new outlet.

Purchase - lowest cost in the long term

If your florist is financially stable and has access to funds - purchasing is the most cost-effective form. You pay once and then have peace of mind. There are no instalments, the machine becomes yours immediately. In addition, you can benefit from depreciation and VAT deduction.

In order for Bouqetmat to make money for itself, it is enough to sell around one bouquet a day - in fact, already at half that amount you start to cover your costs. Anything above this number is already pure profit.

Leasing - the most common choice

Leasing is a solution for florists who want to operate flexibly and plan to become the owner of a machine, but prefer to pay in instalments. The own deposit and the leasing period are tailored to your possibilities. You can put the instalments as an expense, and the machine passes to you upon purchase.

In practice, you only need to sell about 1.5 bouquets a day to cover all your obligations. If you own the place - this figure is even lower. Every additional bouquet increases your profit.

Renting on a trial basis - risk-free, for a start

If you want to test how Bouqetmat will work in your location - a trial rental is the ideal option. The contract lasts for a maximum of 6 months. You can cancel or purchase the device earlier.

Already with the sale of about 1.5 bouquets per day you cover all fees. This is a very good option for the cautious or beginner. Personalisation is included in the price and at the end of the trial period - the machine can be bought back or returned.

Long-term rental - when you want to act now but buy later

This option will work perfectly if you want to operate without a start-up investment, but ultimately plan to buy back the machine. The instalments are higher than with leasing, but the machine can be bought back at any time and the price decreases with each passing month. After one year of leasing, you can expect a substantial discount on the purchase.

One-off start-up fees are required (including deposit, installation), but in return you are not freezing a lot of money. To cover the entire cost, you usually only need around 1.7 bouquets per day - with each additional piece you are in profit.

What do all the options have in common?

Warranty - regardless of the form of financing, the unit comes with the longest warranty on the market.

Personalisation - always available, even in rental.

Insurance - on the client's side, but a small annual cost.

Flowers and electricity - always supplied by the florist.

Bottom line - what to choose?

You buy - when you have the cash, know your location and want to maximise profit.

Leasing - when you want to act prudently but plan to become an owner.

You rent on a trial basis - when you want to test and are not contractually bound.

You rent long-term - when you need time to come to a purchase.

❤️ Passion, not "passive income"

We believe in growth through quality, honesty and a love of flowers. If you ended up here because someone urged you to invest in "passive income" - it's not us. We are not selling the dream of a machine that earns money on its own.

For us, Bouqetmat is all about:

an extension of your point of sale,

a new way to contact customers,

branding,

attention to detail,

and the joy of working with flowers - around the clock.

Profit is a natural outcome of passion and commitment - not an end in itself.

If you feel the same way - you are welcome. If you think 'profit' first and 'flowers' second - look elsewhere. We believe that only from the love of flowers can something lasting be built.
