Hofmeister Personal Jewelers - Featuring Hearts on Fire, Ritani and Bellarri

Hofmeister Personal Jewelers (HPJ) is one of Indiana’s most prestigious jewelry stores. It sells such world-renown brands as: Hearts on Fire, Ritani, Bellarri, Rolex, Movado and Benchmark. The management team needed to shift more of their traditional marketing dollars into digital. Specifically, they wanted to target the savvy 18-45 year old customer across multiple mediums.

"Their approach to fully-integrated marketing is in my opinion, ground-breaking, within the jewelry industry, and retailing in general. We all know that video works very well in terms of consumer influence. The challenge in today’s market is how to most effectively reach, and influence, the consumer, who is increasingly digital in their preferences. And the younger the demographic target, the greater this challenge becomes."

"The Didgebridge multi-medium integrated approach is remarkable---providing us a decided marketing & selling edge vs. our competition. And from an ROI-metric perspective, they are taking much of the ‘ROI-guess-work’ out of this entire equation."
