Q | How are the company’s fees structured?

All of Silverman’’s field supervisors are highly skilled jewelry veterans, and many have at one time owned their own retail stores.

When assigning field supervisors to events, Silverman makes it a point to choose someone who possesses a background similar to the client’s.

Q | Can Jewelry Advisors Group help provide additional merchandise?

A | Jewelry Advisors Group possesses one of the widest selections of jewelry merchandise available, and because of the large amount of inventory bought Silverman receives competitive prices and is able to pass those along to clients. The typical margins achieved on the additional goods usually range between 40 and 45%.

Q | What kind of additional merchandise can Jewelry Advisors Group provide?

A | Silverman Consultant’s New York office at Rockefeller Center is always finding exceptional values, and with a long history in the industry, Silverman has created formidable relationships with others involved in the trade. We have the ability to bring in high quality merchandise, including merchandise from some of the world’s best designers, as well as promotional goods featuring lower price points to ensure that each client’s customers see the types of goods that are in line with the store’s culture, clientele and inventory history.

A | Silverman has an in-house marketing team who will set forth a plan designed to meet each client’s needs.

Q | How does the marketing plan work?

A | Silverman’s marketing team will put together a detailed marketing plan based upon the projected sales volume. Clients approve all expenditures and verbiage in the plan prior to placement. As the sale progresses, the marketing team keeps the plan in constant review, making amendments where necessary based upon the results.

Q | Are there any production costs involved with the marketing plan?

A | Since Silverman prepares the majority of materials in-house, there are no added production costs. If a third party’s services are utilized for any reason, the actual costs for the services of the third party are applied.

A | There are no upfront costs. Silverman provides invoices for the marketing costs as they are incurred, and at times Silverman will advance funds to cover charges of mailers done prior to the start of the sale. In the event that this occurs, Silverman will provide an invoice once the event gets underway and cash flow is available.
