Best Buying Show Yet! RJO Turns the Volume Up to 11 in Minneapolis

MINNEAPOLIS HAS BEEN THE HOME of a number of record-breaking rock stars. First there was Prince. Then came Janet Jackson. We can now add RJO to that list, as last month’s “Rock Star” Summer Buying Show set RJO’s record for highest Buying Show attendance. Held July 14-16, the Show hosted 170 Vendors and more than 315 jewelers, making for a highenergy gathering that spread across all the days. Julee Johnson, of Julee’s Jewelry in Mankato, MN, posted this comment on the RJO Exclusive Facebook page: “So many great things! Found out everything we needed— or needed to know—for our customers. The best is seeing friends and making new ones! Appreciate all that RJO is and does.”

Also commenting was Nancy Marchell, of Signature Jewelers in Grand Forks, ND: “So many ‘greats’! Keynote speaker, had a wonderful group in our Brain Gain session, and—as always—the networking can’t be beat! Excited for all the new purchases we made, too!”

Says RJO CEO Sarah Streb, “I love to hear what a great business opportunity our Buying Shows offers, and it is always fun reconnecting with the membership!” RJO’s Winter Buying Show is in Nashville in January.

FAMILY. DIVIDEND. SUPPORT. BUYING POWER.
