our teamWe have a simple mission: guide retailers to reimagine how they run their stores and to help them form and execute a plan to improve the results they achieve. This goal may be the quest to grow profits or exceed a milestone in sales for the first time. Or it might be to achieve a better work/life balance.
These goals are only limited by the retailer’s imagination. Our role is to help them achieve their aspirations.
We do this through a combination of our team’s firsthand jewelry experience, access to the more than $1.5 Billion of jeweler sales and inventory data from 900+ stores (by far the largest pool of industry data and growing rapidly), insights from the retailer’s own business performance data, and active engagement with our clients.
Our team is also equipped to provide expert advice to jewelry vendors.
