Testimonial from
Gene Arthur - Arthur's Jewelry of Reidsville
"Thank you NCJA for helping make the information
available regarding Precious Metals permits. I successfully insisted upon
getting a permit last year. Local police began enforcment in January 2011 &
I was the 1st & only one in my county with a permit. My competition was
forced to suspend gold buying for the waiting period for the permit. It pays to
be a member of NCJA.” Testimonial from
Lora Wright - Southern Jewelers of Sanford:
"As a
member of NCJA I have greatly expanded my friends in this crazy business. At
conventions, there are so many opportunities to network, gain ideas, find out
what has or hasn't worked for other Jewelers . . . Jewelers who are
Independents JUST like me! The Fall Seminars get me and my employees
ramped up and ready for season! Using the NCJA directory, I have
the telephone numbers at my finger tips to call my friends and ask how a
certain program is working.... This has saved me money on 3 different occasions
because the line or program wasn't all it was meant to be. When times are good
we are all there to celebrate together! The last few years I have had
others who felt my pain and understand the struggle of Jewelers today. BUT, while discussing those things I have
garnered information about advertising, marketing, and how to keep my store
above the others! I would pay the DUES and Convention Fees just to sit down at
the seminars and be with my fellow jewelers at both formal and formal
roundtables. The knowledge you come home with is definitely a plus... Also , I
have saved quite a bit on my credit card services and in this economy every
little bit counts."
