Jewelry Bar Tips

 

More great tips from the Hoot on how to grow your business through Jewelry Bars in various forms.

Jewelry Bar Express:

Jewelry Bars are a wonderful way to grow and expand your business, and the great news is that you can have a Jewelry Bar just about anywhere!

In addition to an in-home Jewelry Bar, an “Express” Jewelry Bar is one you can do while on the go. It’s quick, simple, lots of fun and provides another way to share our unique jewelry as well as the Origami Owl experience.

Here are a few situations where you may want to consider offering an Express Jewelry Bar:
Someone tells you they are too busy with their kids’ crazy sports schedule: Let her know you can bring an Express Jewelry Bar to a ball field, gymnasium, swim meet or dance studio and share Origami Owl with the other moms during practice.
Someone tells you their house is too small: Let her know an Express Jewelry Bar is perfect for a public location! Encourage her to invite a few friends to a local coffee or sandwich shop. 

You know someone who’d like to show the jewelry to her coworkers, but doesn’t have time for a traditional Jewelry Bar in her home: Let her know she could have an Express Jewelry Bar in her office during lunch or right after work.

So what do you take to an Express Jewelry Bar? It’s simple. The Business Basics Starter Package. Take the items listed below, add 1 hand held mirror, 1 pair of reading glasses and 1 white cloth napkin.

• 1 tray with Charms
• Lockets
• Chains
• Tags
• Plates
• Votives
• Tweezers
• Take Out Menus
• Order forms
• A few pens
• Hostess folders
Simply put the above items in the beautiful Origami Owl blue box that you received when your kit first arrived – our brand attracts attention! To set up, place the Living Lockets™, Chains, Plates, and Tags on a white cloth napkin for a clean look. Set out a mirror, reading glasses, Take Our Menus, order forms, pens and one tray with some Charms and Dangles in it. Give each person a votive, a pair of tweezers, then show them how to start their creation!

Once people experience this, they are often very receptive to hosting their own Jewelry Bar, either in home or express!

Host your Own Jewelry Bar:

Schedule a specific day every month to host your own Jewelry Bar, for example the second Thursday of every month.

When you have a specific day set aside, it’s easy to invite people - those who have yet to attend a Jewelry Bar, as well as new people you meet while out and about.

You may want to consider having this monthly Jewelry Bar in a public place, such as a coffee shop or local bakery. If you live in part of the country where it’s still cold outside, establishments such as ice cream parlors or snow cone shops may be fairly private and appreciate your business! A public venue makes it very comfortable for someone you don’t know well to stop by and experience a Jewelry Bar.

When inviting people you meet while out and about, hand them an invitation with the date, time and location. When inviting people by phone, email an invitation right after you talk. Let everyone know they’ll get to have some fun with jewelry and see what Origami Owl is all about.

During the Jewelry Bar, hand each person a votive, a pair of tweezers and show them how to begin creating their look. Let them know they are welcome to place an order, however, they also have the option to receive their favorites for free by hosting a Jewelry Bar of their own. This is another great opportunity to use the ‘Chain and 3 Dangle’ Pop Up Shop scheduling tool to book three future Jewelry Bars!

Hosting your own monthly Jewelry Bar is a great way to attract new customers, Hostesses and potential new Designers. It’s also a great way to train your new Designers. Once they observe you and see how easy it is, encourage them to hold their own monthly Jewelry Bar as well!
