National Jeweler announces America's Best Jewelers program
March 10, 2008
New York—Fine-jewelry retailers across the
United States now have the chance to participate in the industry's first benchmarking study and be recognized as one of America's Best Jewelers.
The new program, developed by
National Jeweler magazine, is designed to define the factors that lead to success in retail and to recognize the retailers who use them.
It consists of a survey open to all U.S. jewelry retailers, an awards program, a Web site and conferences devoted to driving industry excellence.
The survey will be online at
Americasbestjewelerssurvey.com from March 9-April 14. The survey is free of charge.
Participants who provide their contact information automatically will be considered for an America's Best Jeweler award; the survey also can be taken anonymously. All information will be kept confidential.
Survey measurements span mainstream, major and couture jewelers and include: sales volume by category, human resources practices, marketing strategies and objectives, management techniques, inventory control and operations investment.
Jewelers who exemplify the best in human resources, sales, operations, marketing and inventory management will be recognized with an America's Best award.
National Jeweler will announce finalists in May and a special supplement honoring the winners will be distributed with the August edition of the magazine.
