Here’s the Answer to September’s Gem Quiz

WITH THE GEM QUIZ, as in life, it helps to have some local knowledge. And that was the case of Lisa Tompkins, of Tompkins Jewellers in the Canadian province of Alberta, which also happens to be the site of the first major commercial production of September’s mystery stone – Ammolite. “Ammolite (the jewelry) and ammonite (the fossil) are found near my hometown of Lethbridge, Alberta. We have been recognized as one of the very first retailers of ammolite in the world,” she proudly notes. So, in addition to that recognition, Lisa can also add the title of Gem Quiz winner in September. Well done, Lisa, and all our Honorable Mentions below.

Retiring? Let Wilkerson Do the Heavy Lifting

Retirement can be a great part of life. As Nanji Singadia puts it, “I want to retire and enjoy my life. I’m 78 now and I just want to take a break.” That said, Nanji decided that the best way to move ahead was to contact the experts at Wilkerson. He chose them because he knew that closing a store is a heavy lift. To maximize sales and move on to the next, best chapter of his life, he called Wilkerson—but not before asking his industry friends for their opinion. He found that Wilkerson was the company most recommended and says their professionalism, experience and the homework they did before the launch all helped to make his going out of business sale a success. “Wilkerson were working on the sale a month it took place,” he says. “They did a great job.”
