Finding Your Niche in Wholesale Jewelry

If you look online, many companies and individuals are operating wholesale jewelry businesses.  In a field with so much competition, it’s important to define your own niche – what your business is going to specialize in.  If you concentrate on one aspect of the market, your business will have a greater chance of success.  The specialty you choose will help define the look and tone of your business.  And by specializing, you can concentrate your financial resources on obtaining the best and widest variety of jewelry within your price range.  There are many different ways to define your specialty, but the best way may be to choose jewelry you yourself would love to wear.  And with all the choices and variety out there, specializing won’t be limiting – it’ll be fun!

One way to specialize is to offer only a certain form of jewelry.  Perhaps you’ve always found yourself more interested in bracelets – bangles, clasp, metal, beaded -  than in other types of jewelry.  A search through the catalogs of most wholesale jewelry companies will show you a virtually unlimited choice of bracelets available in a wide price range.  While specializing in bracelets, you could also carry anklets, childrens, teens, and adult bracelets for both men and women.  Or you could specialize in earrings, or necklaces – the choice is yours!

Another way to develop your business niche would be to offer only one type of jewelry.  Do you really like gold jewelry?  Or jade?  Pearls, opals, silver, beads?  You can choose and sell necklaces, bracelets, rings, chokers, anklets, all in the type you prefer and in the price range you want to pay.  For example, you can offer your customers only gold jewelry, but in a wide range of prices for every budget.  You could even specialize further, perhaps by offering only men’s gold rings with stones or insignias.

Hand-crafted jewelry is also available, and can be developed into a very viable business.  These items can be a bit pricier than machine or mass-produced pieces, but they have a great appeal to your potential buyers.  Knowing that you’re supporting individual artisans is personally satisfying, as well as  offering a great marketing concept to plan your wholesale jewelry business around! 

Other ways to specialize include themed jewelry, such as western, ethnic, Native American, or animal (horses or seagulls or…).  You could specialize in jewelry for children, or teens, or men.  Whatever you choose, do some solid research first – and then have fun choosing your favorite pieces!
