The SJG Smart Business Report

Sponsored content from the Southern Jewelers Guild

“Service is the very purpose of life. It is the rent we pay for living on the planet.” ~ Mary Wright Edelman

The Southern Jewelers Guild (SJG) is proud to showcase two of our exceptional SJG vendors, specializing in services from which all small jewelry industry owners can definitely benefit.

TK Enterprises, Inc., is the North American Appointment Setting Specialists! TK Enterprises has been training medium and large business sales teams for over 30 years. Over time, with the demand for more prospecting training, TK Enterprises increased its attention to focusing more on Cold Calling Training. Slowly, small businesses came on board and began requesting this training when they realized that cold calling was the best way to grow sales.

Along with Cold Calling Training came the growth of small business coaching, business seminars and webinars. In early 2011, it became clear that not everyone had the staff to do Cold Calling on their own. As a result, and at the request of several customers, the Cold Calling Services division was born and a team of highly skilled, experienced callers was put in place.

So today, TK Enterprises Inc. not only holds public Cold Calling Training that is open to anyone, but offers custom training to businesses of all sizes in the art of Cold Calling. In addition, the Cold Calling Services Division is growing rapidly, and is proving to be a valuable investment for those businesses that need help with their Cold Calling activities.

TK Enterprises will be exhibiting at the August edition of the Atlanta Jewelry Show, August 6 – 8, 2016. Take advantage of the TK Enterprises Atlanta Jewelry Show special and receive 10% off regular rates!

I had the chance while I was in Las Vegas to catch up with my good friend Osnat Davidov, Marketing and Managing Director of IDEX Online. She took some time to introduce me to the newest service in the IDEX lineup, IDEX Direct, and I have to say, I was more than impressed.

IDEX Direct gives the retail jeweler free access to the IDEX diamond search and the ability to bid on and buy polished diamonds online using the IDEX Global Buying and Consolidation Services.

In other words, people, I don’t want to hear anymore whining about Blue Nile. IDEX just handed you the tool to fight that problem, wrapped up in a gigantic, very easy to navigate search engine! Oh, and did I mention – they are giving it to you to use for FREE!

IDEX, the International Diamond Exchange, is the leading online diamond trading platform for professional traders and jewelry retailers around the globe. With service centers located in cities such as Antwerp, Mumbai, Ramat Gan and New York, IDEX features live online supply listings.

Want more information on IDEX Direct? E-mail my friend Osnat at osnat.davidov@idexonline.com or visit www.idexonline.com/register.aspx.

Need some help implementing new services in your store? Have a great new service you’d like to share with me? I’d love to hear your thoughts on this subject! E-mail me at Ann@SouthernJewelersGuild.com or call me at 504-615-1191 today.
