(Press Release)
Online testimonials are important when new prospects are researching a particular retail jeweler. Unfortunately, some consumers are suspicious when they read glowing comments. Further, most jewelers have not been able to garner enough online testimonials to truly impress the internet/consumer researcher.
With that in mind, Porte Marketing has created a 4” x 8” credit card-like personalized plastic postcard mailer with two detachable gift card offers – one for the customer to use and one for the customer to give a friend, relative or associate. The jeweler is able to track the customer who made the referral since their name is printed on the card.
Jewelers can target customers by their purchase history and/or buying frequency, and can also determine the amounts, exclusions and value of the gift cards mailed.
"This new marketing tool and strategy will help jewelers predict their referral business. Imagine what a jeweler’s business would look like if they could dramatically increase customer referral” says Porte.
Each mailer costs $0.98 and includes postage.

Ready to Relocate? Wilkerson Makes Your Move Seamless
When Brockhaus Jewelry decided to leave their longtime West Main Street storefront for a standalone building elsewhere in Norman, Oklahoma, owners John Brockhaus and Brad Shipman faced a familiar challenge: how to efficiently reduce inventory before the big move. Their solution? Partnering with liquidation specialists Wilkerson for a second time.
"We'd already experienced Wilkerson's professionalism during a previous sale," Shipman recalls. "But their approach to our relocation event truly impressed us. They strategically prioritized our existing pieces while tactfully introducing complementary merchandise as inventory levels decreased." The carefully orchestrated sale didn't just meet targets—it shattered them.
Asked if they'd endorse Wilkerson to industry colleagues planning similar transitions—whether relocating, retiring, or refreshing their space—both partners were emphatic in their approval. "The entire process was remarkably straightforward," Shipman notes. "Wilkerson delivered a well-structured program, paired us with a knowledgeable advisor, and managed every detail flawlessly from concept to completion."
