Get Accurate Training

Receiving training that is accurate and given by trustworthy sources is vital. Sunstone has a free permanent jewelry training course here. It is important that you feel 100% confident in micro welding before you take clients. We recommend that you practice on your own and then on family and friends first.

Another great training opportunity is the Permanent Jewelry Expo. PJX is an expo dedicated to permanent jewelry. There are classes on welding, business practices, etc. It also boasts the largest permanent jewelry marketplace where you can form relationships with your suppliers and source tools and chain.

Create Your Brand

This can sound overwhelming. But your branding is what sets you apart and attracts clients. Create a look and feel for your table set up, Instagram posts and any communication you have with your clients (emails, website, graphics, etc.). This will help you in the long run because you will remain consistent over different platforms, and it will help express your unique personality to your clients!

 

Embarking on your journey of starting your own permanent jewelry business may be daunting, but with the right steps, success is on the horizon! Begin by investing in quality tools. Ensure you receive accurate training to build confidence in your micro welding skills.
