Empowering Jewellery Appraisers
The jewellery appraisal industry is on the verge of transformation, compelling appraisers to rethink their strategies to remain competitive. Amid this evolution, a groundbreaking initiative has been introduced by Karen Howard, a highly regarded figure in gemmology and appraisal. This initiative, known as
Client Lifecycle Strategies, is a comprehensive three-month program tailored to assist jewellery appraisers in navigating their niche market effectively, performing competitive analyses, and fostering a sustainable client base.
Traditionally, jewellery appraisers have been highly skilled in valuation techniques but often lack structured guidance on marketing and identifying their target clientele. Many assume their services cater to
everyone, an assumption that often leads to disorganized marketing efforts, erratic workloads, and heightened stress levels.
Client Lifecycle Strategies aims to tackle this issue head-on by providing appraisers with the tools and insights necessary to define their ideal client and focus their marketing efforts accordingly.
Addressing Industry Gaps
Karen Howard emphasizes that the jewellery appraisal market has never provided a robust framework for appraisers to hone in on their ideal clientele. By demystifying this process, the program introduces precise strategies for optimizing business operations, which in turn alleviates the stress associated with client acquisition.
One notable feature of the program is its alignment with the market's projected growth. As recent studies indicate, the global jewellery appraisal market was valued at
US$3.3 billion in 2024 and is expected to expand to
US$5 billion by 2030. This growth is attributed to an increase in consumer awareness, the luxury goods sector's vitality, and the expanding realm of online jewellery sales. This underscores the vital role of professional appraisers in ensuring the authenticity of jewellery transactions in a digital environment.
A Strategic Shift in Client Engagement
“
Client Lifecycle Strategies focuses on helping appraisers move beyond the myth that every person is their client,” says Howard, who has over 40 years of retail experience and 30 years in gemmology. The program encourages appraisers to refine their marketing messages to target specific demographics effectively, thereby ensuring more efficient outreach to potential clients.

In addition to business growth, the program is dedicated to enhancing appraisers' well-being, advocating for a better work-life balance. By leveraging the knowledge gained from
Client Lifecycle Strategies, appraisers can reduce the stress typically associated with finding and retaining clients. This newfound focus not only boosts their business prospects but also fosters a more rewarding professional life.
