Refresh a Jaipur jewellery identity

The decision

A made-to-order atelier considers putting its wedding collection on a marketplace. In a fictional pilot, private appointments produce 30 orders from 100 inquiries. Marketplace listings produce 40 orders from 500 inquiries. Contribution per completed order is ₹18,000 and ₹9,000 respectively.

Which channel fits the brand’s promise and delivers better economics?

Worked solution

Reveal the visual and solution

1. Map the identity from tangible codes to relationship and self-image. Ask whether private appointments, provenance and family consultation are why buyers pay. Check how marketplace photography changes those associations.
2. Appointments produce ₹5.4 lakh and marketplace orders ₹3.6 lakh before lead-generation costs. Compare actual staff hours and acquisition spend to estimate contribution after channel costs.
3. Keep appointment-led discovery for bespoke pieces. Test a separate enquiry-only collection with verified craft cues and monitor repeat referrals as evidence of resonance.
