We all know jewellery and accessories means big business - both domestically and globally. From Tiffany & Co, Louis Vuitton to Prada and diva….. there are Billions of dollars being made in all kinds of niches every year….
It’s a growth industry with exceptionally high demand and the opportunity to start small and grow to whatever level you like…if you’re in charge.
Consider the story of how one of the world’s best known brands got started…
When Tiffany opened the doors of his first fancy-goods store on Broadway in New York in 1837, jewelry was only a minor part of the inventory. But that soon changed.
After political turmoil in Europe in 1848 caused the price of gems to fall, Tiffany snapped up cheap diamonds, including some from French aristocrats who were eager to unload them. The gems went into new Tiffany-designed settings, prompting reporters to nickname Tiffany "the King of Diamonds."
Tiffany, understood the value of publicity and marketing. He introduced mail-order sales, producing the first catalog in 1845. He also participated in the great international exhibitions, eventually opening a shop in Paris in 1868.
"The Paris Exposition of 1900 was crucial because that's when Tiffany became a name that was known internationally," Phillips said.
There are many big name brands out there which prove how big this business can be built over time, however, these all started somewhere and usually getting started is the hardest part. Madam Glamour primarily focuses on assisting everyday women to carve out a niche within their local market place that will provide personal and financial freedom. Once that’s done, the sky’s the limit.
