Ms. Greiner will be followed by a robust list of renowned authorities providing insightful seminars and case studies across the categories of business, marketing, product, and trends.

Several of her investments are the highest success stories on Shark Tank to date, having 10 of the top 20 investments. She’s well known for her impeccable negotiating skills and uncanny ability to know, identify, and launch emerging brands.

At the heart of Lori’s own success is a combination of talent, hard work, and perseverance. She is a strong role model for women of all ages and was honored with the Sherry Lansing ‘Woman of the Year’ Award and, by the Paley Center, as an Important Woman in Television. Lori’s international bestseller Invent It, Sell It, Bank It! is a step-by-step guide on how to turn an idea into a million-dollar reality.

The majority of invitations to the limited seating opportunity have been sent by The Plumb Club and seats are already becoming limited for the event, which will extend New York’s week of jewelry festivities, and is conveniently located in midtown Manhattan.

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.”
