INSTORE created The SMART Jewelry Show to reach retailers in some of the same ways our magazine does. It’s intimate, friendly and comfortable to navigate. At the same time it has a big-show manufacturer lineup and an educational program that’s second to none.

You’ll find 80 educational sessions (most right on the show floor), a Smart Central exhibit featuring mind-blowing ideas for your store, and over 100 new vendors, including top young designers in our Generation Next pavilion.

You’ll rub elbows with the creators of some of America’s coolest stores and learn their secrets in talk-show style interviews with our analysts.

If you do repair and custom design, you’ll learn to promote your services and build a stronger artistic identity. And don’t miss our exciting live skills competition — The INSTORE Bench Pressure Challenge.

If you go to one trade show this year, The Smart Jewelry Show should be it.

Taking the advice we give you often, here’s the part where we ask for your reference. If you’re a show/mag supporter, could you please do us a favor and …

• Ask your favorite vendors if they’ll be at the show. If they say no, tell them they should be.

• Tell your fellow retailers that you’re going to The SMART Jewelry Show. (Change your Facebook and LinkedIn status to “I’m going to The SMART Jewelry Show. Are you?”)

Time for More “Me Time”? Time to Call Wilkerson

Rick White, owner of White’s & Co. Jewelry in Rogers, Ark., knew it was time to retire. Since the age of 18, jewelry had been his life. Now it was time to get that “me time” every retailer dreams about. So, he chose Wilkerson to manage his going-out-of-business sale. White says he’d done plenty of sales on his own, but this was different. “Wilkerson has been a very, very good experience. I’ve had the best salespeople in the history of jewelry,” he says. “I recommend Wilkerson because they are really the icon of the jewelry business and going-out-of-business sales. They’ve been doing it for decades. I just think they’re the best.”
