I’m Danielle. I am turning 26 this fall and feel like I need to experiment with everything creative in addition to my day job.
I attended Rivier College from 2002-2006 and obtained my B. S. Biology. While I’ve made great use of my degree in my day job; Scientist. I also regret my decision at times due to the horrible amount of debt I’ve amassed while attending college.
Living with my fiance Sal of VirgiliArt and our beautiful kitten Emma is definitely worth it, even when our apartment’s floor is flooded due to excessive rain. Sal is the painter/illustrator, I’m the scientist/web design etc.
I love to read about technology, web design, scientific articles, jewelry designing. My mac is one of my most treasured possessions as it makes daily life so easy. I would buy the apple store if I could.
I thought you may want to use this article for your blog entry:
All jewelry producers, artists and designers know that the beginnings are tough. To lift the curtain on beginning in the business learn a couple more ideas on how to start jewelry entrepreneurship and multiply your earnings.
Are you a craftsman, jewelry manufacturer or maybe handcrafted jewelry is a mean of your artistic expression? More and more people want to possess unique pieces no one other has and therefore they start creating rings, necklaces, bracelets, pendants, etc. themselves. Obviously this is why they also search for such a jewelry sellers. If your dream is to become a jewelry designer you should know how to get down to real work. What is the key to success and how to become competitive in the market?
First of all, your clients should be offered items nowhere else to find. Whatever it is, it may be a new and innovative use of a particular bead or a wide selection of rings – present you clients with what they want. Observe the market and find a niche for yourself, provide to your customers things they look for and meet their requirements. Apart from that, the quality is a very important factor buyers pay attention to. Even though no one likes spending fortune on products, everyone expects them to be of high quality. That is why they search for new brands which try to conquer the market, to pay for the quality instead of the name. This is where you can find real gems for next to nothings or at least, for reasonable price. Promotions, sales and competitive prices help you win hearts of your customers.
Are you wondering how to achieve that? How to provide clients with low prices and high quality? If you stick to these rules while searching for supplier, there’s a chance to be successful. Just like your buyers, you should search for a manufacturer with a wide and tempting offer covering everything you need for creating jewelry. Pay utmost attention to the quality of components, all in all they create the quality of your produce, and constantly seek for low prices which will allow you to stay inexpensive. You’d probably like your clients search for new attractive bids and find you. Therefore, you shouldn’t lock yourself to new markets and suppliers, you wouldn’t like others do that. Search for manufacturers offering good quality in low price, check foreign markets, these days each company has a site in English. And remember, your time and labor is the most valuable thing.
Companies which have their headquarters in Europe are trying to conquer new markets and therefore they are forced to have competitive offer. According to managing director of Silvex Company (www.silvex.pl), a Polish manufacturer of silver jewelry, components and MIYUKI Beads representative, ‘we’re constantly trying to keep as low prices as possible so as our customers could earn a lot from their creations. We understand that if they flourish and have great sales we profit from that too. Our pricing depends on the price of silver in the market, so if silver fixing is going down, we simply reduce the prices. I realize it’s uncommon for companies to do that but we concentrate on our products being competitive. With minimal margins we have, it’s really hard to find better supplier than we are.’
Taking all that under consideration, you’re bound to success. All you have to do is to promote your brand, create an image of your jewelry pieces and work your way up!
