Bridge mixes educational seminars and group dialogue discussing a range of topics including customer and peer-to-peer networking, the latest in innovation, and strategies for successful business. Expanding over the last three years, the conference has helped jewelry retailers identify potential problem areas within their stores and proactively develop effective solutions. Three main themes: customization, in-store experience and retail challenges and opportunities are set to be the conversation drivers in the coming year.
“I feel like I am now fortified with tools to grow my business,” says Steve Whitworth from Whitworth’s Gift Chest Jewelers in Poplar Bluff, MO. “I couldn’t help but give [the event] the highest marks in all categories!”
“Bridge is so much more than the conventional conference. We address the industry from a holistic point-of-view covering topics like technology, tools and merchandising,” says Ken Dugas, executive director of interactive customer events. “Add low-risk, profitable results with some Southern hospitality and Cajun cuisine and now you’ve got something powerful and fun.”
