It starts on Oct. 1.

(Press Release) PLANO, TX – The Sylvie Collection, Texas-based designer bridal jewelry brand, announces the upcoming launch of the Pink Pledge Program, a holistic retail and social media initiative to support breast cancer awareness for the month of October.

Kicking off on Oct. 1, the Sylvie Collection will donate 10 percent of all retail sales made through Oct. 31 to National Breast Cancer Foundation, INC. Participating retailers will enter a “pink points” system that recognizes each Sylvie Collection sale completed. The retailer with the most points at the end of the month will be awarded a check for up to $5,000 and a small press event at which they will present the check to their local breast cancer research foundation. Co-op marketing packages will be available to support retailers and will include Facebook ads, Google display ads, blog articles and an optional direct mail piece to be customized for local use.

Additionally, the Sylvie Collection is initiating a social media push targeted toward consumers. For every user who takes the Sylvie Pink Pledge by “liking” or “following” the Sylvie Collection (@sylviecollection) on Facebook or Instagram within the dedicated timeframe, the brand will donate $1 to the charity organization.

A contest to win a 14k white gold pink sapphire and diamond Sylvie Collection band (retail value $815) will also run for the month on www.sylviecollection.com.

“Breast cancer is one of the most commonly diagnosed cancers in women and raising awareness is vital in the fight against this disease,” says CEO/ Designer Sylvie Levine. “This is an extraordinary year for the Sylvie Collection and I feel very fortunate to be able to organize a comprehensive effort that will ultimately lend support to research towards increased treatment.”

2017 marks the Sylvie Collection’s 10th anniversary. To commemorate this milestone, the brand premiered 10 new bridal collections as well as its first special edition diamond engagement ring, the “Elita.” Additionally, the Sylvie Collection will launch a re-design of its consumer-facing website this month.

When There’s No Succession Plan, Call Wilkerson

Bob Wesley, owner of Robert C. Wesley Jewelers in Scottsdale, Ariz., was a third-generation jeweler. When it was time to enjoy life on the other side of the counter, he weighed his options. His lease was nearing renewal time and with no succession plan, he decided it was time to call Wilkerson. There was plenty of inventory to sell and at first, says Wesley, he thought he might try to manage a sale himself. But he’s glad he didn’t. “There’s no way I could have done this as well as Wilkerson,” he says. Wilkerson took responsibility for the entire event, with every detail — from advertising to accounting — done, dusted and managed by the Wilkerson team. “It’s the complete package,” he says of the Wilkerson method of helping jewelers to easily go on to the next phase of their lives. “There’s no way any retailer can duplicate what they’ve done.”
