JEWELRY SALESMAN JEWELRY DISCOUNTS

I’ve been Selling Jewelry since 1989, and do you know what the Best Part, or Perk of a Jewelry Salesperson is?

JEWELRY!

Of course!

Or, should I say more accurately:

THE JEWELRY DISCOUNT!!!!

Being able to Buy Jewelry at a Discount is Awesome for any Jewelry Lover. Not only can you Sell Jewelry and Make Good Commissions on it, but you can also Buy Jewelry at Deep Discounted Prices!

Actual Discounts Vary!

Now every Jewelry Store, Chain, Department Store, Kiosk, Boutique, and Independent Jeweler (Which is what I Work at) will Discount Diamonds and Jewelry differently (This is something you could Ask about when Applying for a Job). Some Places will give you 20% off, some Stores will give you 30% off, or more… And then some Places do it Entirely Different…

Some Stores will give you the item at COST +30%, and if you’re Lucky, like I am, you may even find some Employers will give you Jewelry at COST! (meaning, what they Pay for it – they won’t make a Penny off you, it’s just Part of your Benefits) That’s Awesome! It certainly is a Nice Incentive to continue to Work for them. Because it’s Hard to Resist Purchasing anything at Cost.

Now I’m sure the Store that I Work for is an Exception to the Rule, Most Places won’t let you Buy at Cost, but it just goes to Show you How Varied the Jewelry Discounts can be.

Payment Plans

Many Jewelers will allow you to Purchase these Discounted Items and Make Payments on them with No Interest. Sort of like a Free Charge Card! (Usually it’s taken Directly out of your Gross Earnings, which means you won’t even Pay Taxes on them!)

The Higher up, the Bigger the Discount

Most Jewelry Stores that you work at will give you Bigger and Bigger Discounts as you go up the Ladder of Success. So a Salesperson will get one Discount, an Assistant Manager will get a Bigger Discount, and an Actual Manager could get a Huge Discount! It’s an Added on Perk that Everyone Loves!

There are many more Great Perks to Working in a Jewelry Store, and I even Wrote an Entire Post about it: “The Perks of a Jewelry Sales Person“, but being able to Buy any Jewelry you want at a Discounted Price is Wonderful. Plus, it Helps out Greatly when it comes to Christmastime… everybody gets Jewelry as a Gift! No Complaints There!

Will Work for Jewelry!

I used to know this Lady who Worked in a Store, and she Worked there just for the Fun of it. She didn’t need the Money (Her Husband was an Engineer), she only Worked there for the Jewelry! It used to be a Big Ongoing Joke that Every Penny she made she Spent on Jewelry! We all Laughed about it, but you know what, she Loved it!

If you’re a Jewelry Fanatic, or you’re a Jewelry Addict, you may want to consider a Career in Jewelry… Because the Best Person to Sell Jewelry (and do really well, and make Great Money doing it), is the Person who Loves it. The Person who’s Enthusiastic about it and can’t Wait to Dive into the Case and see what’s New and Exciting.

I Love Jewelry. Always have. Diamonds are my Specialty and I could Look at them and Show them all Day.

And Trust me, I’ve Bought a lot of Diamonds, Gold, and Jewelry over the Years. And there’s always More I Want, as Everyone Else Does I’m Sure!

So look into a Sales Position at your Local Jewelry Store.

You’ll Love it!

“Oh Sweet, the Vendor is Here Showing off their New Line of Goods… Looks like I’ll be Working Some Overtime!” ;)
