Ep 196: How to Land Corporate Workshop Clients (and Why It Took Three Years to Book Hermès) with Poy T. Granati

Evaluate capacity, client needs, and the storytelling potential; both offer value, but capacity and how well the project aligns with brand narratives guide the decision.
Ep 196: How to Land Corporate Workshop Clients (and Why It Took Three Years to Book Hermès) with Poy T. Granati
Q: How do you keep relationships with potential clients like Hermes alive over years?
Maintain regular, value-focused touchpoints rather than pushing for immediate sales, use relevant showpieces like their window displays as talking points, and keep nudging with seasonally aligned offerings until a fit emerges.
Ep 196: How to Land Corporate Workshop Clients (and Why It Took Three Years to Book Hermès) with Poy T. Granati
Q: What is your approach when you pitch to a company that has no idea what you do?
Be concise about your core offering, then demonstrate relevance by aligning your services to the brand's needs or upcoming campaigns, and show how your process can fit their timeline and budget.

Q: Curious, how did you get into floristry?
Hitomi explained her background in gardening and starting a nursery, which led to opening a flower shop and eventually getting involved in floristry through weddings.
Ep 183: From Cricut to Content: Building a Crafting Career with Karina Golindo
Q: How did you get into sublimation?
I started with a Cricut in 2020 during the global shutdown, and after realizing I could create my own party decorations, I expanded my crafting skills.
