Southern/Mid-America Jewelry News and Jewelry Store Marketers have launched their latest podcast, She sells them a ring, then marries them!

Join in the cool and super fun conversation with the bubbly Dawn Kessaris, owner of Diamonds by Dawn.

With no previous knowledge about jewelry, Dawn started working at a local jewelry store in New Jersey at 14-years-old. She sold watches and earned a dollar for every watch she sold.

She took on a job in accounting when she was older, but got bored sitting in front of the computer all day. Returning to the jewelry store where she first worked, she was told that she needed to be a gemologist. Dawn packed her bags and studied Gemology at the Gemological Institute of America in Santa Monica, California.

After graduation, Dawn moved back to New Jersey and worked for several jewelry stores, big and small, until she decided to open her own store.

Dawn says, the jewelry industry is not all about selling jewelry. She has brought the business to a different level by treating her customers like family.

Get ready to laugh out loud with hosts Guy and Elesa as they listen to Dawn’s riotous stories as a jewelry store owner. Have you heard of a jewelry store owner that would help you with your marriage contract? That’s Dawn!
