Your Mid-Year Evaluation is Calling

By Ellen Fruchtman, President Every year you start out with the best intentions. You prepare a budget. You hopefully prepare a strategy.

July is the perfect...

Attention All Attention-Seekers!

By Ellen Fruchtman, President Acquisition is the lifeblood of any retail business. To be honest, it’s probably the lifeblood of most businesses.

The proliferation of messaging is staggering.  Just how...

The Reasons for This Earlier Holiday Season

By Angie Ash, EVP   I’m the kind of gal who likes to enjoy seasons and holidays as they come. You know, take a nice hike in a park to breathe in that fresh fall air, hear the crunchy leaves under my boots, and sip some hot cider, possibly with a little something *extra* in it. So when...

Time For Cuts?

By Ellen Fruchtman, President I know. We’re not talking about it. We’re in one. We’re not in one. I’m not sure what you believe, but I have yet to find a person who doesn’t feel the pinch. We can beat around the bush and hear any explanation, but the “R” word is looming and we need to...

This Could be a Media Game Changer

By Shane O'Neill, VP Media advertising is about to get a whole lot more interesting as Disney+ and Netflix are about to introduce ad-supported subscription options. As two of the most dominant streaming services with the highest average customer retention rates, the question is how much of traditional cable ad dollars will move over to Disney+ and...

Christmas In July

By Ellen Fruchtman This isn’t an article about creating an over-used promotion in July, but rather a notification to everyone who thinks July is way too early to be prepping for your holiday marketing plans. July you say? Yes, July. First and foremost, the summer isn’t a crazy busy time for fine jewelry. Your staff is not...
