Starting a Jewelry Business

Are you starting a jewelry or accessory business? If so, you need to read this book.

James Walsh has been a jewelry professional for over ten years, working first as a jewelry retailer running his own store, and then as a jewelry buyer for large wholesale and import companies. He has seen many start up jewelry businesses fail and he has seen a much smaller number of jewelry businesses succeed.

In this guide, he will outline the many mistakes that cause so many jewelry businesses to fail, so that you can avoid making them. He will explain how you should go about finding suppliers, what sort of jewelry you should sell, and where you should consider selling it - shops, jewelry parties, online, fairs and markets, etc.

Most importantly, the author outlines the twenty common mistakes made by new and existing jewelry businesses, from under-pricing (far more common than you would think), to targeting the wrong market or sourcing the wrong styles of jewelry. All of these common mistakes are examined in detail, so that you can avoid making them.

Most independent jewelry businesses fail or struggle to survive. If you are starting out as a jewelry retailer, or thinking of starting out, then you can't afford not to read this book.

This eBook is not aimed at jewelry sellers who make their own jewelry, though many of the points raised are still relevant. It assumes that you are selling jewelry you purchased or sourced elsewhere.
