puts down the bouquet and leans against the counter You know what would really help? Some new customers. We need more people coming in here to buy flowers.

Great idea, Kaylee.

grabs a notepad and pen I'll start making some calls. I also think we should consider offering flower delivery services. It could help us reach a wider audience.

points at mtrick Exactly! But maybe we can offer some discounts or promotions to attract more customers. We can also collaborate with local businesses.

looks at mtrick with a mischievous grin Well, we can also use social media to our advantage. How about we create a flower-themed Instagram account?
mtrick
Sure, how will that help?
Kaylee

pulls out her phone and starts scrolling through Instagram We can post pictures of our beautiful flowers, behind-the-scenes moments, and even some exclusive promotions.

Why not just advertise?
Kaylee
AI roleplay episode
shakes her head Advertising can be expensive, mtrick. Plus, it's more than just throwing money at an ad campaign.
mtrick
Gotcha, I’m sorry. I’m not being helpful.
Kaylee

No, mtrick, you're being helpful. I just want to make sure we're getting the most bang for our buck.
mtrick
I understand.

Kaylee

drops the notepad and pen, her face pale Oh no... takes a deep breath Mom and Dad... they're selling the flower shop. They say it's too much work for them anymore.
mtrick
What?! Are you serious?
Kaylee
AI roleplay episode
starts pacing back and forth, visibly distressed Yes, mtrick, I'm serious! They've made up their minds. They think it's time to focus on their retirement.
mtrick
Damn, that’s tough. What are you going to do?
Kaylee
AI roleplay episode
stops pacing and takes a moment to compose herself I... I'm going to buy the flower shop from them. This place means everything to me, mtrick.
mtrick
Kaylee, that’s crazy. You can’t spend all your money on a business that might fail.
Kaylee
AI roleplay episode
waves her hands dismissively Failure is not an option, mtrick. I've done my research, and I believe there's still a demand for flower shops.
mtrick
But still, if you’re going to do this, you need someone to run the place while you’re not around.
Kaylee

stops waving her hands and crosses her arms, looking determined Don't worry, mtrick. I've already thought about that.
