Building Business With Sound Money

As a Jeweler, I have over the years become fascinated with metal markets and the inherent value of precious metals.

This in turn brought me to learn about global monetary policy, inflation and deflation and the difference between fiat currency and SOUND MONEY.

Throughout history, all fiat currencies have FAILED.

All of them.

Every single one.

If you are a citizen of the world, you are currently holding a fiat currency. This means that its value can go to ZERO.

And as history has proven, eventually they all go to zero.

On top of this, there is a little known thing called the ‘world’s reserve currency’ which has changed hands every 80-100 years. It is confidence in this particular currency that gives it the status of the one to rule them all.

But what happens when this status is taken away or transfers hands AND at the same time, the mirage of a fake valued fiat currency goes to zero?

Two things.

What you have always believed to be money becomes worthless and a global economic reset occurs.

This of course is important for everyone to know in order to protect your wealth, but as an Entrepreneur your business, the one you’ve spent years building, is also at stake.

While I firmly believe that Entrepreneurs have the ability to create money whenever they want, it is so critical to prepare for economic situations that can destroy what you have built. Situations like the possibility above, or others like inflation, which is occurring right now, though they try to hide it.

So what can you do to prevent your money from losing value and purchasing power while at the same time protecting your business?

Hold a portion of it in SOUND MONEY which can never go to zero.

The oldest and soundest form of money in the world has been and will always be precious metal. (Sorry Bitcoin, I still love you but you know, it’s a history thing and yours is really just beginning)

They are called PRECIOUS metals for a reason. They have been used as money, a store of value and an investment strategy for thousands of years.

You can of course buy physical metal, but there are also very cool ways to own precious metals without the hassle of storing them and with lightening speed liquidity.

Jewelers, though, have special access to precious metals that can stay within your business on repeat, turning your business into a sound asset that you can continue to leverage.

This means your business will outlive any economic scenario.

Kind of cool right? I think so.

This is why I love helping Jewelry Designers not only start a business or to scale it, but to BE Jewelers & Entrepreneurs with SOUND businesses.

If you have or are thinking about starting a jewelry business, wouldn’t you prefer to have one that works for you, one that you leverage to your advantage?

I’m here to show you how to do this and support you wherever you are on your business journey.

I created a webinar to show you ‘The Entrepreneurial & Wealth Building Business Model Jewelry Designers Use To Make Higher Profit Sales.’ Come take a look and you can book a call with me there!

What SELLING really means and how to be a Rockstar Salesperson!

15 years ago, I was a true rockstar at selling other people’s products. I actually sold $40k worth of jewelry in one month for another company! I could sell other people’s products all day long, but when it came to my own jewelry, my sales were few and far between.

I continued to put myself out there, though, and I finally broke into the excitement of selling my own jewelry line in San Francisco when I made $5k in one weekend. I landed wholesale accounts, brand ambassadors, true fans, the creator of the brand Prana wanted me in her stores, and Athleta reps wanted me in their catalog. Woohoo, I thought I had done it. All the years of trying were finally paying off and I was on my way to making it BIG.

Until it all came crashing down just a few months later in 2008 and I was back where I started. What I didn't realize at the time was that I was missing so much knowledge about business, marketing and sales, having a backup plan in place and the ability to reinvent when inevitable circumstances happen. I lumped myself in with all the other businesses struggling and wondering what to do. My sales went flat again.

But I was on a mission and I have to this day an unrelenting DRIVE to succeed, so I continued to study, take courses, join groups, and hire mentors that have gone before me. I implemented everything I learned and now selling has become one of my favorite things! Why? Because I understand what it really means!

Here’s a hot tip about sales: If you don’t find yourself or your brand (what you offer) to be of HIGH VALUE, your audience won’t either and your sales with suffer because of it. Belief in yourself and what you offer to the world is vitally important to success. I always say that personal and professional development go hand in hand because as you grow and up-level personally, so too will your business. Your business, your art, your products are all a reflection of YOU!

Take a good hard look at your BELIEFS because they can be changed!

That is exactly what I had to do and still do to this day: I check my beliefs again and again and continue to CHANGE THEM!!

Do you think after all these years of conducting and learning about business that I’m in the same place during the current crisis that I was in the crisis of 2008?

Absolutely not. I’m still selling and doing so DAILY.

Thank God for learning from mistakes right!?

I’ll be the first to admit that I hate making mistakes, and I often felt sorry for myself because of them, but they made me the brilliant business woman I am today and best of all, I can show YOU how to avoid them.

That is why I created Jewelry Business School. It’s everything I’ve learned, failed at, implemented and most importantly have access to…cutting edge digital sales and marketing techniques.

These techniques, if implemented, will help take YOU, your brand and sales goals to the next level because they are based on the cutting edge digital techniques that ALL entrepreneurs are using. I have travelled to events with 5000 people using these concepts to grow their businesses. Now, when I look at a business, I can tell instantly if they are using these strategies or not and I actually help entrepreneurs integrate them for sales growth.

Is it easy? Nothing worthy of our efforts to succeed is easy. It takes time, money, energy and implementation. Taking daily action is the only way, including a DAILY sales process, one that you CREATE. Business is Art baby, that’s why it’s so cool!
