School Spirit & Additional Custom Ideas for September

August 29, 2023

The Dot & Dash Team has been hard at work researching paths for our Retail Partners to enjoy increased profits as they sprinkle joy and meaning across the country with our jewelry. We believe our CUSTOM DESIGNS for SCHOOL SPIRIT / LOCAL TEAMS and the MOMS IN THE COMMUNITY that support these students can hold the ticket for new avenues of profitability with Dot & Dash.

We had the best time working this idea out in our own "test kitchen!" One day last month, our team of jewelry artists collaborated to create a set of heartfelt and unique custom designs to encourage amazing moms in our own area! We hand-crafted an array of customized pieces with specific messages. We carefully selected beautiful beads that match some of our local high school spirit colors. From band moms to senior moms - our crew identified specific women to receive these gifts. We then delivered the new pieces of jewelry to these outstanding women. We LOVED their responses ... they were full of smiles and gratitude for each unique gift. They shared about the LOVE they have for their kiddos (a devoted mom of a french horn player - a senior football mama - and more!). They had such big smiles as they put on their new jewelry --- knowing that these pieces can be worn with pride all season long.

How many moms in YOUR AREA can you think of encouraging? We KNOW that women around the country are the volunteer GLUE behind so many school organizations and teams. Dream with us for just a minute. Doesn't every client in your store - have a favorite BFF, a mom, a daughter, a teacher, a youth worker, a coach, or a neighbor that would love a piece of local jewelry with their specific message related to their kiddo's favorite activity? Take 5 minutes at your next staff meeting to inspire your team to dream up a fun new way to interact with your customers while they lead this perfect creative opportunity with Dot & Dash. 

And what if YOUR store identified a specific CUSTOM design for YOUR local area? We encourage you to dream up a few Dot & Dash custom designs that include the high school name and mascot in your area designed in your perfect spirit colors. Help your staff write up a custom order or two today … and be ready to place your “repeat orders” when these local favorites continue to fly off the shelves! Need additional custom ideas?
