After a long hiatus, customers have begun to make their way into stores once again. Your business now has a recipe for success this summer.

Seeing this, you may begin to consider how important these next few months may be for your business as a whole – especially given how challenging and emotional the past year has been. 

According to the National Retail Federation, retail sales are expected to grow up to 13.5 percent to more than $4.44 trillion in 2021 as the economy recovers from the pandemic. 

This means jewelers will be working tirelessly to get their customers back into their store as soon as possible. A product like the Jewelry Appraisal Solution can assist your business this summer and beyond.

Simply put, this application is free to use on Zing by Jewelers Mutual Group® platform and provides a seamless experience for both you and your customers who need appraisals for insurance purposes.

Here are three reasons you need to make the most of it as the in-store experience returns this summer.

The Ability to Leverage Gemworld’s Expertise
As a user of the Jewelry Appraisal Solution, you have access to diamond and colored gemstone wholesale pricing modules along with an estimated retail replacement value. You can also combine details from customer purchases with Gemworld’s data and, if needed, adjust the final estimated retail value based on your expertise.
 
Additional Revenue Stream
You can earn $20 for appraisals that accompany a completed application through the Jewelry Appraisal Solution. You aren’t capped at a certain dollar amount either, so how much you can earn is up to you and how many appraisals you are able to complete. 

A Fantastic Jeweler and Customer Experience
Completed appraisals are sent to your customer with access to an instant insurance quote from Jewelers Mutual. Then they can apply, pay and receive protection before they even leave your store. 

These customer-friendly, company-branded appraisals can be completed in a matter of minutes with an intuitive interface that works on desktop or mobile. Cloud-based storage also lets you access everything you need, wherever you are.
As business heats up this summer, make sure you’re taking full advantage. 

Sign up for the Zing by Jewelers Mutual Group platform and get started with the Jewelry Appraisal Solution today.
