NORTHSHOREMAG.COM 44 MAY 2020 S H O P + R E N E W solution to both necessity and marketing; McLaughlin wanted to let people know the shop was open to the public and also wanted a way for customers to quickly buy flowers during the colder weather months (when both parking and tolerance of colder temperatures can be hard to come by). The shop is open from 8:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. weekdays, conve- nient hours for customers heading to and from work. The shop is also open on weekends. With the outside floral shop up and run- ning, McLaughlin continued to think about ways to make her business stand out, keeping in mind the importance of making the flower purchasing process as hassle free as possible. In addition to clients placing one-time orders, the Flower Club is a subscription service that allows members to select weekly, biweekly or monthly fresh flower deliveries right to their doorstep. The shop also offers a membership option where clients select floral arrange- ments to be delivered four times a year on the special occasion or holiday of their choosing. This service can be set up for an entire year, taking the legwork out of ensuring a loved one receives fresh flowers on a special day. With same-day local delivery on the North Shore, the possibilities for an Amy McLaugh- lin Flowers client are endless. From sympathy to get well arrangements to "welcome baby" flowers (the shop will deliver to Anna Jaques Hospital once the pandemic subsides) to curated gift boxes paired with flowers, there's something for everyone in your life. CONTACT AMYMCLAUGHLINFLOWERS.COM Amy's floral bouquets are the perfect Mother's Day gift, her storefront remained closed during the stay-at home-orders but she continues to take phone orders. For every bouquet ordered McLaughlin will donate $5 to Project Hope during the COVID-19 crisis.
