(PRESS RELEASE) Independent jewelers face strong competition from online retailers, yet they have a distinct advantage. Today’s socially conscious consumers like to support local businesses and want to know exactly where their diamonds are sourced from. They also desire a personalized experience.

Brick and mortar jewelers can maximize the benefits of both online sales and a physical presence by creating an effective website. By optimizing your online presence, you can create a personal connection with shoppers that will bring them back to again and again for each special occasion, life milestone, and routine cleanings and repairs.

The key is to build a website that captures attention, generates trust, and puts you in close contact with each visitor. Here are three ways to turn your website into a powerful sales tool.

Three Features of Effective Websites

1. Give Crystal-Clear Calls to Action.

Make sure each page of your website drives visitors to take one specific action. The call to action could be “Subscribe to our e-newsletter,” “Search our inventory,” or “Schedule your cleaning today!” Just avoid cluttering a single page with too many requests, or visitors are less likely to take any action at all.

2. Use Engaging Visuals.

High quality images, video, and virtual reality are among the most effective ways to hold attention and convey the value of your inventory. GN Diamond’s Diamond Hunt search platform provides 360-degree magnified diamond imaging for your entire loose diamond inventory, so the visual side of your website is fully taken care of.

3. Capture Contact Information.

Don’t let visitors leave without providing an email address or phone number. This contact information is a valuable asset to your sales team, who will then be able to follow up with more personalized and timely offers. Use pop-ups to grab attention and make it easy to enter contact information by keeping forms simple and direct.

Easily Upgrade Your Site with Diamond Hunt

GN Diamond’s Diamond Hunt website sales presentation platform can be customized to your branding and markups, and seamlessly integrated with your website. Add a diamond listing to your website that outshines any internet retailer with powerful features, such as diamond certification, light performance, brilliancy scores, and 360-degree video.

This Third-Generation Jeweler Was Ready for Retirement. He Called Wilkerson

Retirement is never easy, especially when it means the end to a business that was founded in 1884. But for Laura and Sam Sipe, it was time to put their own needs first. They decided to close J.C. Sipe Jewelers, one of Indianapolis’ most trusted names in fine jewelry, and call Wilkerson. “Laura and I decided the conditions were right,” says Sam. Wilkerson handled every detail in their going-out-of-business sale, from marketing to manning the sales floor. “The main goal was to sell our existing inventory that’s all paid for and turn that into cash for our retirement,” says Sam. “It’s been very, very productive.” Would they recommend Wilkerson to other jewelers who want to enjoy their golden years? Absolutely! “Call Wilkerson,” says Laura. “They can help you achieve your goals so you’ll be able to move into retirement comfortably.”
