This month, we have two ?True Tales? that you have a good chance of experiencing yourself this holiday season: 
 
A customer, on December 20th, when the place is rockin’, walks in and says: “I understand you do free gift wrapping here” “Yes, of course.” Customer whips out a couple of presents he purchased elsewhere. After the laughter stopped, we explained that meant our gifts … and he left.

FREEHOLD, N.J.
 
 
 
?I had a customer in my store shopping for a gift for his wife. She called him on his cell phone and must have accused him of being with another woman. He told her that he was indeed with another woman and finally put me on the phone. When she found out it was me, she got all excited and told him that he could have me as the other woman anytime! (It’s amazing how much power the gift of jewelery has over us women!)?

After 139 Years, A Family Legacy Finds Its Perfect Exit With Wilkerson.

When third-generation jeweler Sam Sipe and his wife Laura decided to close Indianapolis’ historic J.C. Sipe Jewelers, they turned to Wilkerson to handle their retirement sale. “The conditions were right,” Sam explains of their decision to close the 139-year-old business. Wilkerson managed the entire going-out-of-business sale process, from marketing strategy to sales floor operations. “Our goal was to convert our paid inventory into retirement funds,” notes Sam. “The results exceeded expectations.” The Sipes’ advice for jewelers considering retirement? “Contact Wilkerson,” Laura says. “They’ll help you transition into retirement with confidence and financial security.”

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.”
