(PRESS RELEASE) NORWALK, CT — The JIS Portfolio is officially announcing the date change for its first Show of 2019! The JIS January Show, originally scheduled for Saturday, January 12 – Monday, January 14, is moving dates to take place one week later—Saturday, January 19 – Monday, January 21.

The January Show historically takes place during the 3rd week of the month. Due to venue renovation work, the dates needed to adjust to January 12-14. Fortunately, that is no longer an issue and we are able to shift the dates back to their usual pattern. This switch was also widely requested by the overwhelming majority of vendors and buyers alike.

The JIS January Show is the jewelry industry’s chance to restock, replenish and reconnect—all while in sunny Miami Beach, Florida during the most ideal selling time of the year. Visit jisshow.com/January or call +1 (800) 840-5612 for more information on attending or exhibiting today.

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.”
