Join us for this online Creative Links talk with business coach and trained jeweller, Elizabeth Galton, as she explores how to build commercially strong, cohesive collections without sacrificing creativity. Drawing on her experience in retail and brand building, Elizabeth will share practical insights on how to think beyond individual pieces and develop a clear, effective collection structure.
This talk addresses designing with a clear purpose, structuring entry, core and premium pieces, pricing for perceived value, and avoiding common mistakes like under-charging. Learn to assess how your pieces work together, how customers navigate your range, and how your collection can support a sustainable income. Blending creative thinking with proven retail frameworks, the session will help you build collections that tell a clear narrative, attract the right customers, and support long-term growth.
At the beginning of the event, there will be the opportunity to network and talk to peers, and at the conclusion of the conversation, the panellists will be pleased to answer your questions.
Following the session, you will receive post-session reflective material/PDF summary of what was covered in the talk.
