Increasing sales and revenue during the holiday season 2024

The holiday season is the ultimate time for jewelry and watch retailers, wholesalers, and repair shops. With Diwali kicking off the festivities and Christmas wrapping up the year, it's a golden opportunity to maximize sales and strengthen customer loyalty. From handling inventory like a pro to streamlining repairs and order management, Luxare’s all-in-one jewelry software solution is here to help you shine this season. Here’s how to make the most of Diwali to Christmas with Luxare.

1. Start with Stellar Inventory Management

When it comes to jewelry and watches, inventory is everything. Imagine a customer coming in to buy a popular watch or gemstone pendant, only to find it’s out of stock. It’s a lost sale and, potentially, a lost customer. This is where Luxare’s Jewelry Inventory Software comes in handy.

Tips to Keep Inventory Stocked and Ready:

  • Identify Popular Items: Use Luxare’s analytics to see which items were top-sellers last year. Restock popular styles and sizes early to stay ahead.
  • Automate Reorders: Set up alerts for low stock levels, so you never miss a sales opportunity.
  • Track Inventory in Real-Time: With Luxare’s cloud-based flexibility, you can track inventory updates instantly across multiple locations, helping you manage stock efficiently for both Diwali and Christmas shoppers.

2. Offer a Memorable Repair Experience with Mail-In Repairs

Holiday shoppers are often looking to fix family heirlooms or repair pieces in time for gifting. Luxare’s Repair System takes the hassle out of the repair process for both your customers and your team.

Why Mail-In Repairs are a Game Changer This Season:

  • Reach a Larger Customer Base: Allow customers to ship repairs directly to your store, making it convenient for out-of-town clients.
  • Real-Time Updates: With real-time tracking, customers receive updates on their repair’s status, while your team stays organized and efficient.
  • Quick Approvals for Faster Repairs: Luxare’s system allows customers to approve repair estimates online, helping you speed up processing and deliver faster.

Mail-in repairs not only make things easier for customers but also open up new revenue streams by reaching a wider audience. It’s a win-win!

3. Manage Orders Like a Pro with Luxare’s Order Entry System

Order management can get overwhelming during the holiday rush. Between Diwali and Christmas, you’re likely dealing with a flood of custom orders, special requests, and last-minute purchases. Luxare’s Order Entry System can help keep everything organized.

How to Keep Orders Flowing Smoothly:

  • Real-Time Status Updates: Every order, from custom to stock items, has a live status, so both you and your customer know exactly where things stand.
  • Centralized Dashboard: Manage all your orders—assets, memos, special requests—right from one place, making it easy to stay on top of everything.
  • Faster Invoicing and Shipping: Automatically generate invoices and shipping labels to streamline the process and keep customers happy.

With Luxare’s Order Entry, you can focus on delivering a seamless customer experience without stressing over order chaos.

4. Optimize Customer Experience with CRM Tools

Let’s face it: happy customers are loyal customers. Luxare’s Jewelry CRM Software is designed to help you build strong relationships with your clients, and the holiday season is the perfect time to show appreciation.

Use CRM to Build Holiday Loyalty:

  • Personalized Service: Keep track of customer preferences and purchase history so you can recommend items that are sure to catch their eye.
  • Holiday Reminders: Use automated emails to remind customers of special sales, upcoming events, or holiday-themed items.
  • Customer Feedback: Post-purchase feedback collection helps you understand what customers love and where there’s room for improvement.

With Luxare’s CRM, every customer interaction is an opportunity to strengthen loyalty, boost repeat sales, and drive holiday word-of-mouth referrals.

5. Embrace Omnichannel Strategies to Reach More Customers

In today’s world, customers want flexibility—whether that’s shopping in-store, online, or a mix of both. Luxare’s software supports Omnichannel Sales, allowing you to seamlessly blend online and offline customer experiences.

Omnichannel Strategies for the Holidays:

  • Unified Shopping Experience: Sync your online and in-store inventory so customers know exactly what’s available, wherever they choose to shop.
  • Flexible Payment Options: Use Luxare’s POS system to enable online, in-store, or contactless payments, making transactions as easy as possible for your customers.
  • Click-and-Collect: Offer a buy-online, pick-up-in-store option. This hybrid approach meets the needs of last-minute holiday shoppers who want the convenience of online shopping with the immediacy of in-store pickup.

Meeting customers where they are will make you a top choice during the busy holiday season.

6. Track Your Success with In-Depth Analytics

As you ramp up for Diwali and Christmas, it’s essential to track performance to understand what’s working and what isn’t. Luxare’s software provides in-depth analytics on sales, customer behavior, inventory turnover, and more.
