E-book Category: Business, E-Business, E-Marketing E-book Title: Secrets of a Handcrafted Jewelry Shopping Service Author: Rena Klingenberg Book Description: Unlock the Secrets of Selling Your Jewelry in a Profitable New Way Discover a way to sell your jewelry to customers who are VERY willing to buy from you - again and again.
Hello, I'm jewelry artist Rena Klingenberg.
I first stumbled onto the "jewelry shopping service" approach to marketing my handcrafted jewelry a few years ago.
I couldn't believe I'd never heard anyone talk about this before - because it's a wide-open field with tons of opportunities for selling your jewelry. It's the main way I sell my jewelry now.
And in this new book, I detail everything you need to know to start your own profitable jewelry shopping service, selling your handcrafted jewelry.
What's a Jewelry Shopping Service? Personal shopping services are a growing trend in all kinds of market niches.
Typically a personal shopper helps clients determine what they should buy, or finds the perfect gifts for customers to give.
What if you operated your handcrafted jewelry business like a shopping service?
There are absolutely immense opportunities for jewelry artists to sell their work this way, as you'll see in "Secrets of a Handcrafted Jewelry Shopping Service".
A jewelry gift and shopping service could easily be your entire jewelry business, or just one income stream of it.
It's a Very Profitable Way to Sell Your Jewelry. You'll be selling directly to your clients at full retail prices, so you won't be paying any booth fees, shop commissions, party hostess incentives, wholesale discounts, etc.
In fact, one of the best things about it is that you have very few sales-related expenses, because there's no "middleman". Nearly 100% of the proceeds go directly to your business.
And what's more, many of your clients will be fairly big spenders. (I'll show you where to find them!) They love your customized products, personal service, and the way you take their problems out of their hands - and are willing to pay quite well for it.
Everything You Need to Know Is in This Complete Guide.
I've tested and honed these jewelry marketing strategies so that they really work.
Most of the information in this book has never been published anywhere else before.
I haven't held any secrets back - "Secrets of a Handcrafted Jewelry Shopping Service" is your complete, 115-page, step-by-step success guide and idea-starter for selling your jewelry in this exciting new way.
You don't have to re-invent the wheel and go through the same learning curve I did to figure out what really works (and what doesn't!).
