How to Sell Jewelry on Instagram

Boost your jewelry business' online presence by selling on Instagram.

According to numerous studies, the number of social media users continues to rise, and mobile-commerce continues to grow as well. Instagram is one of the best social media platforms to sell your jewelry on the internet because it is visual-heavy. And as with other platforms, there are "ready customers" on IG that are willing to buy your jewelry. So if you haven't created an Instagram page for your business, it's time you do now.

Check out these tips on how to sell your jewelry pieces on Instagram.

1. Create an appealing profile.

Start with your username. Make sure to use your business name as your Instagram handle to make it easy for your users to find you. Note that it can only be 1 to 30 characters long, so it should be straightforward. It should also be consistent with your other social media account usernames.

If the IG name or handle is already taken, you can come up with another by adding "official" or adding the abbreviation of your store location at the end. For example, if your brand's name is Jewelry Seller, you can go with @theofficialjewelryseller or @jewelrysellerca.

Next up is to upload a profile photo. Use your company logo for this to strengthen brand recognition. Users must be able to remember your logo so they can instantly think you of you and your jewelry when they see it.

Then, add a creative and catchy bio. Instagram allows only 150 characters for this, so be straight to the point. Let users know who you are and what you are about. Using emoticons is a good idea too!

2. Post engaging content.

What is engaging content for a jewelry business? Simple. Post beautiful professional shots of your items for sale with an equally appealing caption. But it shouldn't just be all images; you should post videos as well. Experts say that it should be a balance of the two.

Here are the visual content types that are considered engaging on Instagram:

• Close-up shots of the pieces using a jewelry display or a clean background
• Lifestyle shots (models or you wearing the jewelry)
• Events like trade and craft shows
• Product reviews
• Promotional announcements

You can also use Instagram Stories to engage more active users.

3. Write compelling captions.

To sell your pieces, you should be able to catch the users' attention not only through your photos or videos but also through your captions. You can do this by thinking about what your target customers want and what your brand represents. Questions like asking for their opinions is one of the ways to engage your audience. Also, do not forget to add a call-to-action.

4. Always answer queries.

Aside from engaging with your customers through compelling captions, you should also remember to answer all queries. This is either via direct messages or comments. Never ignore them. Otherwise, users will get turned off and worse, unfollow your page.

5. Connect with customers through Instagram ads.

Last, but not least, is to reach your target market through Instagram ads. Just like Facebook ads, IG ads allow you to show these ads to well-targeted demographics. Make sure to add an engaging caption with a quick call-to-action as well.

What To Bring In a Jewelry Craft Show

Here's a checklist of things to bring on your next jewelry trade or craft show.

Going to craft shows is part of owning a jewelry shop. Aside from being able to network with like-minded people and showcase your products, it's also a fun event for you and your staff. And just like with any trip, you should be able to bring all the things you need.

Today, we created a checklist for you in case you get invited to another craft or trade show this month. We came up with five categories of things to bring and will discuss each of them.

1. Jewelry Display

Of course, you cannot attend a craft show without your jewelry displays! Make sure you bring all of them -- your necklace display, ring, bracelet, and earring displays. And it's best if you use those that can hold multiple pieces. We also recommend using the easel ones because they are space-saving, easy to install and store, and are lightweight.

Aside from that, you also need the following in your booth display:

• Riser displays for highlighting special items
• Mirrors so customers can check out the jewelry on them
• Price tags, of course!
• Business card holder and business cards
• Banner or sign carrying your shop's name
• Table cloth if necessary
• Decors and props

2. Packaging

Packaging materials should also be on your list, and they should carry your shop's logo and contact information. These materials should include the following:

• Gift bags
• Ribbons
• Pouches
• Jewelry boxes
• Ziplock bags

3. Tools and equipment

This category is also as important as the two. These things are essential in case of emergencies and to keep everything organized. This should include the following:

• Inventory list to keep track of your jewelry pieces
• Receipt book
• Calculator
• Extension cords in case you need to charge your phone or laptop
• Lights
• Cash register or a cash box
• Scissors, cutters, and pliers
• Sticky tape
• Pens
• Safety pins
• Stapler

4. Cleaning materials

A good display is one that looks clean and uncluttered! So do not forget to bring along your cleaning tools and materials:

• Garbage bags so your trash won't be lying around for everyone to see
• Paper towels in case of spills
• Microfiber or lint-free cloth for cleaning surfaces
• Brush or feather duster
• Hand sanitizer or alcohol for personal hygiene

• 5. Personal items

Personal items should include stuff that you and your staff need to get through the day. Aside from food and water, you should also bring the following:

• Extra clothes in case it gets warm
• Sweater or hoodie in case the AC gets too cold!
• Chairs or stools to rest those legs

Ways to Maximize a Small Jewelry Store Space

Limited space shouldn't hold you back from getting a beautiful jewelry display.

If you are a startup jewelry business, your space is probably not as big as the ones Pandora and Tiffany have. You shouldn't bother, though, as a small area still has advantages. It is much easier to maintain and damage. And of course, you can easily change your store's jewelry display every season.

Now, you're wondering how you can beautify such a limited shop space. No worries, because today, we are going to give you five tips on how you can maximize a small jewelry store space.

1. Go for a minimalist theme.

Having a minimalist theme means that you have much more space to spare. Use minimal decor, paint your walls with monochrome colors, and use a few pieces of furniture. Chairs are really not a necessity as customers do not need to sit while trying on jewelry. Focus on tables and shelves and other furniture that can hold your items for sale.

2. Hang a large mirror.

Large wall mirrors give a dual purpose to a small shop. One is aesthetics; they give the illusion of having wider and larger spaces. And of course, another purpose is that they allow your customers to see how your jewelry items look on them.

3. Use space-saving jewelry displays.

Instead of using bulky displays, go with a jewelry display that can hold multiple pieces. The best examples are the easel stands because they do not take much space and can hold many pieces. This type of display is also very easy to set up and store, making them ideal for trade and craft shows as well.

4. Use your walls.

Consider utilizing your walls for display. You can use wall-mounted metal hooks as a necklace display, and wall racks for other jewelry pieces. Make sure though that they are installed at eye-level heights, as making them too high or too low will be inconvenient for your customers.

5. Make sure there's still space for moving around.

Lastly, you have to make sure that customers can still move around your shop. People will lose interest to check out your jewelry if the place is too cramped and cluttered. That said, make sure that your furniture is strategically placed in corners and edges or in the middle.

Necklace Displays for Minimalist Pieces

Showcase these delicate pieces with the right displays

We just can't get enough minimalist jewelry! These minimalist pieces not only are simply elegant, but they are also much more comfortable to wear than their bold counterparts. This is also why minimalist jewelry, like delicate pendant necklaces, remains to be one of the most trending products as found by Shopify.

Today, we are giving you some display tips on how to effectively showcase these simple beauties using the right necklace display this season.

1. Go with the wooden necklace displays.

Wooden necklace displays give off a country vibe, which reminds of the simple country life. That said, minimalist necklaces look perfect in this type. These displays complement delicate pieces because of their rustic style as well.

Tip: Stone pendant necklaces like turquoise and those made of leather look gorgeous in a wooden necklace display.

2. Showcase them using metal necklace displays.

As with the wooden ones, metal displays are also perfect for minimalist necklaces. Most of these displays come with simple designs as well, complementing the styles of these delicate pieces. You can also get ones in pink, white, or baby blue colors, which exude romantic Paris vibes perfect for pieces with romantic designs.

Tip: If you want to showcase minimalist necklaces with pendants that have romantic designs like roses, hearts, or the Eiffel tower, metals displays are the way to go.

3. Stay away from the classic velvet displays.

Black velvet necklace displays are better off reserved for other types of necklaces. This is because they may come off as too sophisticated or glamorous for simple necklaces. Velvets are ideal for statement pieces or classic pearls.

Tip: If you want a simple black necklace display, go with dark linen or dark paper twine instead, like the one in the photo.

4. Do not use acrylic necklace displays.

Acrylic displays, although sturdy and highly reliable, may look too industrial for a minimalist necklace. That said, it's better to stay away from these.

Tip: Got no other displays but acrylic ones? Let your creative juices flow. Cover the acrylic surface with some linen or accentuate with lace. Even floral gift wrapper would do.

5. Use patterned displays.

Patterned displays allow these delicate pieces to be more noticeable, especially if they are really thin and small. Unlike the solid-colored ones, these tend to catch passers-by's eyes more effectively.

Tip: Choose patterns that will complement the design of the piece. For example, if the pendant has an animal design, you can go with animal patterns like the zebra display in the photo.

How to Make Stud Earrings Stand Out

Here are some display tips on how you can make these delicate earrings more noticeable.

Stud earrings are one of the favorite types of earrings of women because of their simplicity, classic beauty, and comfort. Unlike tassel or hoop earrings, you wouldn't worry about them getting caught in your hair. However, because they may be smaller and less striking than the bigger ones, there is a chance that they may be overlooked by customers. That said, the proper display is needed for these pieces.

Today, we came up with a list of five jewelry display tips for our favorite stud earrings.

1. Use the right type of earring display.

Although tall earring stands are the perfect type of earring display for drop and tassel earrings, they are perfect for the small studs as well. This is because the tall height of these stands allows the earrings to hover other pieces, allowing them to stand out.

2. Avoid multiple earring displays.

Unless you are going to showcase stud earrings with the same design yet different colors, do not use displays for multiple pairs. This is because they can all get lost with each other. This is especially true if you want to highlight a new design. Use one for a single pair instead, preferably, an earring stand.

3. Place them on risers.

If you have no stands available at the moment, you can use risers. Place the stud earrings in a puff card or an earring box and put them atop a display riser. This way, they will be able to become noticeable, instead of them getting lost in the crowd with other types of jewelry pieces.

4. Provide a special area for stud earrings.

Another option is to place all stud earrings in one area. For example, you can use a glass display case or table exclusively for your stud earrings. That way, your customers specifically looking for studs, will just have to go to this area in your shop without getting distracted by other types of jewelry.

5. Use proper lighting.

As we have always mentioned in our articles about display tips, proper lighting is utterly important. Even if you are using the best-looking display for your earrings, they still won't be noticeable if the light is terrible. Avoid creating shadows so designate a spotlight to the pieces. Check if the spotlight is placed at the right angle.

Reasons to Shop for Jewelry Displays Online

Whether you own an online jewelry store or own a brick and mortar jewelry shop, jewelry displays are a necessity. You should invest in these items as they play a role in marketing your products.

There are many wholesalers of these displays, and you can find a bunch of them online. If you have been buying from a physical store since day one, have you considered buying them from online sellers? Today, we listed the reasons why it's time you shop for jewelry displays online.

Online shopping is perfect for busy people.

Owning and managing a jewelry shop is no easy job. Many things need to be done, from checking the inventory to checking the daily sales.

Thank goodness for online shopping, you don't have to spend extra energy, time, and gas to go to the store.

There is no need to carry big boxes.

The Best Jewelry Displays for Statement Jewelry

Here are the qualities of a jewelry display to look for when showcasing bold jewelry.

In one of our previous posts two months ago, we gave you tips on how to display minimalist jewelry. This time, we will discuss some helpful tips on how to showcase eye-catching statement jewelry.

As we know, not all types of jewelry display can bring out the true beauty of jewelry pieces. This is because there might be some that can clash with the design of the jewelry. Some may even camouflage the jewelry instead of accentuating it. Remember that customers want displays that are easy on the eyes, so you should be careful with choosing them.

And without further ado, here the three best jewelry displays for show-stopping statement jewelry pieces:

Monochromatic

Monochromatic jewelry displays are definitely the best choice for bold jewelry. Because they have a single color, there won't be any chances of it clashing with the design of the jewelry. It instead allows the piece to stand out even more. Another tip is to get one in a dark color if the jewelry is silver, stainless steel, or white gold. On the other hand, get one in a lighter shade if you are to display black-plated or gray-plated jewelry. Gold and rose-gold basically look good in earth tones and dark ones.

Minimalist

Minimalist displays are ones that have simple designs. A good example of this is displays made of metal, acrylic, and ones covered in single-colored velvet. Necklace display busts with a straightforward design are also another example. Of course, do choose ones that have a color and style that will perfectly complement the designs of your statement pieces. Otherwise, the jewelry might just camouflage itself into the display.

Subtly patterned

Although the basic rule for statement jewelry is not to use patterned displays, there are still some that will complement these bold pieces. Jewelry displays made of wood are one good example. They have subtle and natural designs that do not clash with statement jewelry, especially ones that have crystals and beads. Burlap and paper twine also have subtle patterns, but they bring out the beauty of the jewelry as well. Stay away from displays with polka dots, animal prints, florals, stripes, and the like.

The Best Types of Displays for Tassel Earrings

Showcase the full beauty of these bold statement pairs with the best types of earring display.

One of the in-trend earrings today are the tassel earrings. It is not surprising, as these fashion accessories usually come in eye-catching and bright colors that are perfect for wearing with basically any casual and semi-dressy outfits. Because of this, they are categorized as bold statement jewelry.

So how can you effectively showcase these show-stopping earrings? Today, we will discuss the best types of earring display for tassel pairs.

Monochromatic Earring Stands

Monochromatic or single-colored earring displays are perfect for multi-colored tassel earrings. This is to avoid clashing with the pieces' design and colors, and therefore allowing them to be showcased in its full beauty. You can get one in a dark color for your light-colored pairs, and one in a light color for your dark-colored earrings.

Burlap Earring Stands

Earrings that feature metallic charms as tassels, on the other hand, will shine brighter when showcased using burlap earring displays. This is because the metal perfectly contrasts the earthy vibe of burlap. You can also use organic hemp linen-covered ones.

Easel Displays

Easel earring displays are perfect for tassel earrings with flat charms or gems. The tassels also tend to lay flat on the easel at the ideal angle, allowing it to display its full beauty.

Metal Earring Display Trees

Tassel earrings with minimalist designs look perfect with metal earring displays. This type usually comes in equally minimalist designs which complement any delicate pair of tassel earrings.

Satin-Covered Displays

Satin displays are ideal for tassel earrings with a vintage design. This is because the sleek satin exudes classic vibes that match retro pairs of earrings. Champagne or pink satin displays are also perfect for rose gold tassel earrings.

Black Velvet Earring Displays

Lastly, earring displays covered in black velvet are perfect for pearl tassel earrings or other light-colored crystal tassel earrings. This is because a black background allows the earrings to stand out even more, and velvet has a classy, glamorous vibe that matches these types of earrings.

How to Effectively Sell Your Clearance Items

Clear some space in your store and inventory by turning your clearance jewelry items into fast-moving ones.

One common problem of jewelry sellers is how to handle excess inventory. Although there are many ways to make profits out of these items, the easiest way still is to continue selling them in your store. If this is the case for you, then you've stumbled upon the right article. Today, we made a list of ways on how you can sell your clearance items effectively.

Dedicate a particular area for your clearance items.

Make your excess inventory items stand out by dedicating a space for them in your store. It could be the space near the entrance of your shop or the space near the checkout. It should be an area that is visible and easily accessible by customers. You can use a table or a shelf for these items, and it should be separate from all your other jewelry for sale.

Showcase them using the best jewelry displays.

One of the best ways to make your items stand out is by showcasing them using the right jewelry displays. For example, if you have a bold statement necklace, use a monochromatic necklace display. If you use one with patterns, the necklace's design and the display will clash. Remember to choose ones that will be able to accentuate the beauty of the items, and not compete with them.

Don't forget to give them the proper lighting.

Proper lighting is a must in any display to highlight your jewelry effectively. Invest in high-quality spotlights and cost-efficient LED lights. Remember to install them at the right angles and get rid of shadows, as these negatively affect how your display looks like. Bright lighting can also accentuate the beauty of your clearance items.

Offer them at slightly lower costs.

To pique the interest of customers, offer these items at slightly lower prices. Another tip is to create jewelry sets and sell them at a collectively lower cost, or sell them as Buy-1-Get-1 items. These promotions are proven as effective, and they can definitely help your excess inventory be fast-moving items in no time.

Announce your clearance sale on the web.

If you are to go with these promotions, make sure to announce them in your e-commerce site if you have one, and of course, in all your social media pages. Share this content as a Facebook or Instagram Story, go Live on Facebook, or advertise. Make sure that you regularly post so more users will be able to know about these perks and promotions.
