  How to Buy a Wedding Band Without Talking to Anyone

 

  Brothers Daniel and Ben Mardkha started their wholesale jewelry company Marke to reinvent how men shop for wedding bands: “We wanted to gut out all the lovey-dovey stuff”

  Wedding band company Marke offers Wholesale Fashion Shoes just two styles, a classic rounded band and a flat one, as well as a home try-on kit customers can order before committing. PHOTO: RYAN SLACK

  By Lane Florsheim

  The wedding band company Marke values one thing above wholesale fashion jewelry all else: ease. When its founders, brothers Daniel and Ben Mardkha, realized how many men don’t know what they’re doing when the time comes to buy a ring, they set out to remove guesswork and confusion. Or at least, move it to their living room.

  Before committing, shoppers can order a home try-on kit and Marke will send six replica rings in a mix of materials and widths, boxed in the company’s green packaging along with a ring sizer and a try-on guide. The company offers just two styles, a classic rounded band and a flat one. Each is available in three widths (slim, mid and wide) and materials (14-karat yellow, white and rose gold), priced from $299 to $629. It all follows the now-familiar direct-to-consumer model, but it’s for a purchase that’s supposed to last a lifetime.

  Daniel and Ben Mardkha. PHOTO: RYAN SLACKDaniel, 30, wholesale how to set up a dropshipping website and Ben, 25, launched Marke after their first jewelry company, Everband, didn’t work. Everband offered jewelry retailers matching women’s and men’s wedding bands, to which wearers would add a diamond to every year celebrate their anniversary or the birth of a child. (Women would collect diamonds on the outside of the ring; men, on the band’s inside.) The idea, they now say, was too complicated. Employee turnover at jewelry stores meant it was hard to keep retail staff members trained in the Everband process, says Daniel. But the brothers noticed something when marketing the concept.

  Guys coming in to buy wedding bands were like “lost little puppies,” Daniel jokes. “They didn’t know where to start and were kind of just being dragged around by their partners.” Wanting to take another shot at starting their own business, the brothers tackled wedding band shopping. Their family owns a Manhattan wholesale weave distributors jewelry manufacturing company near Bryant Park. The younger Mardkhas have had access to the factory and resources there as they build their brand. They describe themselves as their own target market. Daniel is married and wears a rotation of a few of the Marke bands; Ben is engaged and planning to wear a ring that isn’t offered right now, but “hopefully will be,” he says.

  Marke hopes customers will appreciate its straightforward approach. “My fiancé had no idea what he wanted out of a ring,” says Emilie Mateu, 28, an associate TV producer who lives in New York City. “He’d never worn jewelry before. He didn’t know what color or shape—he really knew nothing.” She says the home try-on kit took away the need to go searching through the city. “It felt like a very millennial experience,” she adds. “The whole thing was very easy, it was online.” Her fiancé picked a slim classic band in rose gold.

  AmorSui — “love yourself” in Latin — launched last fall at www.amorsuiclothing.com after raising $15,000 in 40 days through I Fund Women, a crowdfunding platform for female entrepreneurs. Its fire-resistant tops, skirts, dresses, and pants, priced from $60 to $180, are named after women scientists, including Marie Curie, Rachel Carson, Rosalind Franklin, and Lise Meitner.

  By some estimates, the global market for personal protective equipment — which also includes goggles, ear plugs, and respirators among other no-clothing items — is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate of 6.2 percent through 2023, with the U.S. market alone reaching $53 billion by that time. The clothing portion of that — including lab coats, overalls, and aprons — is currently $19 billion.

  AmorSui sales have reached about $5,000 a month, Wangtrakuldee said. While declining to disclose revenue projections, she said a deal is pending with a major supplier to universities, hospitals, and pharmaceutical companies that would likely lead to creation of a wholesale baby clothes line next year.

  Richemont net profit jumps on one off gain, sales rise 27 percent

 

  Sales at Compagnie Financière Richemont SA, for the year ended March 31, 2019, increased by 27 percent to 13.99 billion euros (15.63 billion dollars) at actual and constant exchange rates. The company said, excluding YNAP and Watchfinder, sales for the year rose by 8 percent at constant exchange rates, with all regions showing growth with the exception of the Middle East and Africa. Asia Pacific and the Americas posted double digit sales increases driven by mainland China, Hong Kong, Korea and the US.

  Profit for the year rose by 128 percent to 2.79 billion euros (3.12 billion dollars), reflecting a 1.38 billion euros (1.54 billion dollars) post-tax non-cash accounting gain on the revaluation of the YNAP shares held prior to the tender offer. Excluding this amount, profit for the period grew by 15 percent driven by a higher operating profit. Earnings per share increased by 128 percent to 4.927 euros on a diluted basis.

  Financial highlights of Richemont’s full year

  The company added that 8 percent growth at constant exchange rates in the group’s directly operated boutiques was driven by solid jewellery and watch sales and the 7 percent increase in Wholesale  sales reflected successful watch launches and favourable comparatives. Excluding the prior year’s 203 million euros watch inventory buy-backs from multi-brand retail partners, wholesale sales were moderately up on prior year at constant exchange rates.

  Gross profit grew by 20 percent to 8,645 million euros (9,659 million dollars). The company said, consolidation of online distributors contributed to the increase in gross profit but diluted the group’s gross margin to 61.8 percent compared to 65.2 percent a year ago. Excluding online distributors, gross margin improved by 110 basis points to 66.3 percent.

  Operating profit rose by 5 percent to 1,943 million euros (2,171 million dollars). Operating margin amounted to 13.9 percent compared to 16.7 percent a year ago. Excluding the consolidation of YNAP and Watchfinder, and one-time net charges, operating margin improved to 19.5 percent.

  Richemont’s performance across core regions

  The company’s sales in Europe grew by 37 percent, supported by the first-time consolidation of YNAP and Watchfinder which have a strong presence in Europe. The region accounted for 29 percent of group sales compared to 27 percent a year ago. Excluding online distributors, sales in the region increased by 1 percent. Sales, the company said, were in line with prior year in the United Kingdom; they progressed in Switzerland and, to a lesser extent, in France. Wholesale Womens Winter Jackets  sales decreased while retail sales grew low-single digit driven by the jewellery maisons and by the specialist watchmakers.

  Sales in Asia Pacific, which accounted for 38 percent of group sales, posted a 20 percent growth. Excluding online distributors, sales in the region were 14 percent higher, driven by double-digit growth in all main markets, including mainland China and Hong Kong. The retail channel, supported by 20 net new store openings, as well as the wholesale www.chinabrands.com  channel registered double digit growth, driven by strong performances at the jewellery maisons and specialist watchmakers.

  Richemont added that sales in the Americas grew by 40 percent, benefiting from the inclusion of YNAP, which has a strong sales base in the US. The region’s contribution to group sales therefore increased to 18 percent, compared to 16 percent a year ago. Excluding online distributors, sales progressed by 11 percent. Sales in Japan were up 16 percent and excluding online distributors, sales increased by 8 percent. Japan accounted for 8 percent of group sales, compared to 9 percent in the prior year.

  Sales in the Middle East and Africa increased by 8 percent. Excluding online distributors, sales in the region decreased by 2 percent, as the Wholesale Plus Size Boutique  distribution network was further optimised and currency movements continued to be relatively unfavourable. Middle East and Africa represented 7 percent of group sales, compared to 8 percent a year ago.

  Richemont witnesses growth across retail channels

  The 8 percent retail sales growth, the company said, was driven by double digit increases at jewellery maisons and specialist watchmakers, despite temporary store closures in France and the group’s divestment of Lancel. Retail sales benefited from the reopening of a number of renovated stores, the full year impact of the internalisation of external points of sales in the Middle East in late calendar year 2017 and the first-time consolidation of Watchfinder stores. All regions experienced growth, with double digit increases in Asia Pacific and the Americas.

  The group’s wholesale business, which includes sales to franchise partners and multi-brand retail partners, posted a 7 percent sales increase. The performance was contrasted between regions, with Asia Pacific and Japan registering double digit increases, while Europe and the Middle East and Africa registered lower sales.

 

  This high-tech Wilmington clothing boutique is going wholesale

 

  entreDonovan's Linda Farquhar and Fangfang Zhang are looking to bring their custom womenswear brand to wholesale  with a crowdfunding OPO.

  The rarity of custom clothing for women seems like gap in the market, especially considering that “clothing every body type” is currently very on trend. We see clothing startups getting all kinds of positive attention on social media by using models of different sizes and body types to display their products.

  The entreDonovan brick-and-mortar at 222 Delaware Ave. in downtown wholesale dropshipping Wilmington opened in 2014, offering a mix of custom and ready-to-wear.

  The turning point in entreDonovan’s journey to perfect custom fitting came when Farquar met a (then) recent Ph.D. graduate from North Carolina State named Fangfang Zhang, who was familiar with the developing technology of body scanners. (“Most people use them just as digital measuring tape,” Farquhar said.) Zhang joined the company as a partner in 2016.

  “That’s when we really started figuring out how to wholesale custom fit for women,” Farquhar said.

  Together, they developed a high-tech system for  creating custom patterns using existing body scanner software, Xbox Kinect technology and some of Farquhar and Zhang’s own proprietary processes.

  “It’s infrared — really fast and not invasive,” said Farquar.

  The entrDonovan body scanner.

  Here’s what a body scanner looks like. (Courtesy image)

  The IRL experience

  At entreDovovan, which is now open by appointment only, customers have a unique brick-and-mortar experience that can’t be duplicated by online retailers: They enter the body scanner in a dressing room, choose the garments they want, then pick out fabrics from books of swatches. About four weeks later, they have high-end, perfectly fitted custom pieces that average around $700 (comparable to high end pieces sold at Nordstrom).

  ADVERTISEMENT

  The brick-and-mortar aspect is one of entreDonovan’s big selling points as the company looks to expand into wholesale.

  “Women’s apparel stores have been losing market share over the last 5 years,” said Farquhar. “The industry is growing, but boutiques are losing. So we have a presentation to go to retailers and say, ‘This is a huge experiential kind of thing that can’t be replicated online.'”

  Add to that the ongoing research that suggests that millennials like shopping brick and mortar, and entreDonovan could be ahead of the curve in more ways than one.

  With the Cheap Wholesale Shoes Online model, retailers would have a body scanner on site, as well as fabric books and samples of the garments. Orders would be placed online to entreDonovan and and would be delivered to their location, essentially allowing consumers to have the experience of their custom boutique in a number of locations across the country — these could be big department stores or tiny shops.

  Next step: Online Public Offering

  This month, entreDonovan launched its first Online Public Offering (OPO) with the California-based StartEngine Capital. The equity crowdfunding platform allows people to invest in the company for as little as $200.

  “There’s the crowdfunding that everyone knows about, where you contribute money and get some kind of perk but don’t own part of the company,” said Farquhar. “What we’re doing is real investing, where basically anyone can invest in the company for small amounts and own equity, without having to be an accredited investor.” Check out entreDonovan’s OPO page here.

  How TecoSwitch Achieves Zero Churn

 

  Getting to know TelcoSwitch and what enables their 0% in a competitive industry

  How TelcoSwitch Achieves Zero Churn

  Through innovation and partner success, TelcoSwitch has established itself as a leading wholesale  provider of both UCaaS and CCaaS services. Through their 100% channel focus, TelcoSwitch has grown from day zero to 132 established UK channel partners in just three years. I spoke to Russell Lux, CEO of TelcoSwitch, to learn about the TelcoSwitch story and find out just how they’ve achieved such rapid growth – with 0% churn – in such a short space of time.

  Russell’s CV comprises Managing Director and Chief Technology roles across a range of technology companies. This puts Russell and TelcoSwitch in a unique position with essentially a technology entrepreneur at the helm.

  TelcoSwitch provides a wholesale offering to channel resellers, leveraging their robust and reliable platform as the base. With Russell’s awareness of the bigger picture, through other technology investments in the UK and USA, TelcoSwitch is uniquely positioned in solution sales rather than hardware and software.

  Enabling partners new to the cloud

  Russell Lux

  Russell Lux

  With TelcoSwitch’s experience, IT resellers and phone system suppliers looking to branch into the cloud phone system industry and further would be well armed when looking at TelcoSwitch. TelcoSwitch specialises in providing the core platform to enable first-time and infrequent cloud phone system resellers to enable them to take a valuable and competitive proposition to market without investing in expensive cloud infrastructure themselves.

  With a go-to-market strategy solely channel focused, TelcoSwitch is not a provider that also has a direct sales team you could end up competing against. This ranks highly as a reason lingerie wholesale uk  for losing business in the reseller and VAR world. Partners need to feel secure and empowered by their chosen platform provider – not endangered by them.

  With the UCaaS industry reported to be worth $28.69bn by 2021 by Markets and Markets, new resellers are chomping at the bit and need to make an informed decision when selecting a partner.

  TelcoSwitch portfolio

  The tech portfolio itself features enough solutions to turn any new reseller into a powerful player in the as-a-Service markets.

  The UCaaS offerings consist of CallSwitch Business and CallSwitch Lite which provides a core hosted voice and Unified Comms platform. When reselling the platform wholesale , resellers can also benefit from value-add services like auto attendant, conference rooms and call recording.

  Natively, you can also expect integration with leading business applications like Salesforce, HubSpot and Microsoft Dynamics.

  The CCaaS solution takes the shape of CallSwitch Contact Centre. This includes a core toolkit of call centre features, reports, dashboards managed controls and compliance options.

  The third string to the TelcoSwitch bow is Communicator Meeting due in June 19. This is a Video Conferencing as-a-Service (VCaaS) style product which offers a great alternative to a full fat collaboration solution deemed too much for small businesses requiring access to video conferencing.

  0% churn

  I asked Russell the secret behind TelcoSwitch achieving 0% churn.

  “I have absolutely no idea! 2018 was 3 years for us as a business. In those 3 years, we have not lost an end user. Along with that, we’ve grown by 127% in revenue over the last financial year. In terms of profitability, we were cash flow positive and finished the year on over 40,000 users”

  “2019 has continued in the same vein. We are currently averaging 1600 nett new seats per month”.

  What’s next?

  Russell spoke about the exciting times ahead for TelcoSwitch. “Before the summer, we will be adding new features to the contact centre and already have a full collaboration suite built and undergoing final testing”.

  To continue TelcoSwitch’s rapid growth, March’s new platform updates will be coupled with new hires.

  Ronni Raveh joins from Dun & Bradstreet as Customer Success Lead. She is tasked with looking after resellers and will introduce soft selling and further marketing techniques to empower the channel.

  Paula Buckland joins as a Business Development Executive from Panasonic to source, support and onboard new resellers.

  Furthermore, the technical support team has increased by 50% since the turn of the year.

  TelcoSwitch was also featured in my Top wholesale childrens clothing Providers for 2019 article where you can find a review of CallSwitch Business and CallSwitch Lite. TelcoSwitch is currently offering up to £100 cashback on every seat signed up until the end of April 2019. For more information on the offer, check out the TelcoSwitch website here.
