I found this to be a very interesting article. Our family’s company has been making live telephone calls for jewelry retailers for several years. Mainly because they don’t have time or the desire to do the clienteling themselves and by using our services they can reach a much broader base of customers than just their top 50 or 100 that they typically call each time.
Our services are for not only clienteling but also for specific events like designer events, trunk shows, etc.
