DeGroot and Huisken to host Salesmanship Master Class

Jimmy DeGroot (l) and Brad Huisken

(GREEN BAY, Wis.) – If these past few years have taught retailers anything, it’s the importance of understanding how to sell to clients in a relational business. Creating personal trade, repeat business and referral business is essential today. To train retail teams the art of building these types of relationships, Jimmy DeGroot and Brad Huisken are offering their Salesmanship Master Class, a 12 week class held once a week for 45 minutes taking sales teams through the art of clienteling, add-ons, turnovers selling with integrity and much, more.

“Retailers have told me that with the employment situation the way that it is today, they need a means by which to train new employees quickly and to fine tune the skills of their seasoned employees,” said Huisken. “A trained staff will produce 20 -25% more than an untrained staff.”

“Store owners are looking for a system to reach out daily to customers and then sell them in a manner much like they did when building their business,” said DeGroot. “We’re giving them just that.”

The Salesmanship Master Class was created to provide solutions to problems such as:

  • Our sales meetings have become mundane.
  • One-on-ones lack content.
  • Your people know what they need to do, but not how to do it.
  • You know your closing ratio needs to improve – just not sure how to make it happen.
  • Not sure how to tell staff how to convert a repair to a sale.
  • Your people are not comfortable in clienteling.
  • Your people aren’t as successful in clienteling as they should be.
  • Don’t know what to do or say when a customer says “I’ll be back”.
  • Turnovers seem pushy and my people are uncomfortable with the concept.
  • My people are too quick to offer a discount.
  • My manager isn’t coaching on the sales floor.
  • Add-ons are lacking.
  • I have set goals – now what?
  • I have the traffic, it is not converting into sales.
  • My people wait for customers, they are not creating business.

Cost of the class is $1,995 per store. All the classes will be recorded for later viewing if stores cannot make the Wednesday 10 am start time. The class start Wednesday March 9, 2022

The Story Behind the Stone: Metal Mashup

Reading Time: 6 minutes I have to confess I just learned about electrum when this topic crawled up on my radar. We love the wide range of jewelry metals today that give consumers tremendous options for creating the exact piece of their dreams. Metal alloys are some of the more exciting variations for imaginative jewelry designers to work with. These options better reflect the tastes of a client and help them to personalize their jewelry, making it truly unique to them. Brooch with a griffin, from the necropolis of Kameiros, Rhodes, c.  625–600 BC (Louvre). Natural Alloy One topic catching my eye at the moment is a rare and naturally occurring metal alloy – electrum. This word, electrum may be uncommon to modern society, but it’s a Latin word derived from the Greek electron mentioned in the Odyssey referring to a metallic substance consisting of gold alloyed with silver.
