The Spark

Every great business starts with a moment of clarity. For FloweMedia's founder Jon Young, that moment came after a meteoric rise through corporate estate agency. Despite breaking sales records and climbing the ranks in record time, Jon saw a fundamental flaw in how traditional businesses operated.

In 2001, he took a bold step that was considered impossible at the time: launching an estate agency from his dining room table – with no staff and no office. Using technology and automation to level the playing field, he sold 64 properties in his first year. But that was just the beginning. Over the next six years, Jon grew the business, expanded to three different towns across Suffolk, and sold hundreds of properties before successfully selling the business in 2007.

This wasn't just a success story – it was proof that with the right technology, automation and systems, a local business could start from nothing and scale to compete with established industry players.

The Mission

This success revealed something powerful: the right technology could help a small business not just compete, but grow and prosper. After witnessing firsthand how technology could transform a dining room startup into a multi-location success story, Jon couldn't ignore the struggle other local business owners faced.

For experience he started working for a large digital marketing company which showed him that while big corporations had access to powerful tools and strategies, local businesses were being left behind.

So In 2013, FloweMedia was born with a clear purpose: bring enterprise-level technology and marketing power to local service businesses, helping them achieve the same kind of scalable success Jon had experienced firsthand.
