After finishing my Masters, I intend to develop my own luxury jewelry business so strategic marketing is vital for my personal success. I see a vacancy in the jewelry market for more reasonable, high quality jewelry stores in the smaller towns. Jewelry is only available in the main cities and the citizens from the small towns need to visit a City to purchase jewelry. By developing a business for this niche market, I would be targeting a clientele who would prefer to purchase competitively priced jewelry from a local store. I have planned the development of this business and will establish the first jewelry store within 6 months to one year within my hometown of 220,000 residents. If this provides a successful business model then I will establish another. There are 23 towns in my city. The ideal result would be to open 23 stores.
