Industries/Florist & decor CRM

Proposals, rentals, installs, strike.

Florals and decor are sold as itemized proposals, delivered on a tight install window and picked up again that night. Semuko keeps the proposal, the minimum, the arch rental and the strike crew on one event.

Why event florists switch

Twelve centerpieces, one gold arch, a four-hour install window and a strike crew at eleven. Semuko keeps the proposal, the minimum, the rentals and both crews on one event, so every vase comes home.

Balloon and backdrop pricing

Twenty feet of garland, priced by the foot.

Organic or classic garland as a per-foot product with style options. The length is the quantity on the proposal, and install is its own line. Drag the length.

Rental inventory

One arch, one wedding.

Arches, vases, stands and backdrops are tracked as equipment and reserved per event, so the gold arch cannot go to two weddings on the same Saturday. Pick a Saturday.

Replaces your stack

One plan instead of an example floral and decor studio stack.

These are tools a floral and decor studio often pays for separately. Your own stack will differ, and some of these tools do things Semuko does not. Each row says where keeping the dedicated tool makes sense.

  • CRM and lead pipeline

    Pipedrive Lite

    $14/mo per seat, billed yearly

    $14/mo

    In Semuko: Clients and leads

    When to keep Pipedrive

    A sales CRM is built around reps and deal stages. If you run an outbound sales team, it can go further than a studio CRM.

  • Scheduling links

    Calendly Standard

    $10/mo per seat, lowest listed price

    $10/mo

    In Semuko: Booking and scheduling

    When to keep Calendly

    Calendly has a free plan. If one booking link is all you need, the free plan may be enough.

  • E-signatures

    Dropbox Sign Essentials

    $10.05/mo billed yearly ($15 billed monthly)

    $10.05/mo

    In Semuko: Contracts and proposals

    When to keep Dropbox Sign

    If you sign a lot of documents that are not about a client (leases, vendor or HR paperwork), a general e-sign tool covers those.

  • Invoicing

    FreshBooks LitePartly replaced

    $23/mo regular monthly price, 5 billable clients

    $23/mo

    In Semuko: Invoices and payment plans

    When to keep FreshBooks

    Semuko invoices and collects payments. It is not accounting software, so most studios still keep bookkeeping for expenses and taxes.

  • Forms and questionnaires

    Typeform Basic

    $25/mo lowest listed price, billed yearly

    $25/mo

    In Semuko: Questionnaires

    When to keep Typeform

    Typeform is a design-first builder for public surveys and quizzes. Semuko questionnaires live on the client and the event.

  • Gear and inventory

    Sortly Advanced

    $24/mo first-year rate, billed yearly

    $24/mo

    In Semuko: Equipment and kits

    When to keep Sortly

    If you run a warehouse of rental stock with hundreds of items, a dedicated inventory app goes deeper than Semuko equipment kits.

Example stack, lowest listed pricesabout $106/mo

Semuko Studio Pro

$79.99/mo

or $71.99/mo billed yearly (10% off)

Up to 5 users and 5 brands, workflow automation included. Essentials ($39.95/mo) has no workflow automation; Agency Unlimited ($149.99/mo) has no team cap.

Card processing is your processor’s fee (Stripe, Square, PayPal and others), on top of any plan.

Pricing checked October 2026. Each price is the lowest one listed on that vendor’s public pricing page, at one seat unless noted, often with yearly billing. Prices change, so check before you decide. This is an example stack, not a promise of savings for every studio.

Built around the install window
“Every ceremony I shot started with a florist racing the clock.”
Tim, Semuko’s founder, ran a wedding photography business. Florists and decor teams sell itemized proposals and live by install and strike windows, so this setup is built around them.
