Business name: Greetings By The Yard, greetingsbytheyard.com, Concord, California
What is your business known for? Flamingos are the number one ornament and the number one sign phrase is Happy Flocking Birthday.
When and how did your business get started? We heard about lawn greeting businesses from Flamingo Surprise in Chicago, which was then the biggest lawn greeting business in the country. Our daughter was a teenager at the time and was awake in the middle of the night anyway so we thought she might as well be out helping deliver.
What's something interesting about your business your customers might not know? The number one occasion we do greetings for is 50th birthdays.
