Mumbai: After two successful editions of ‘Season of Love’, Platinum Guild International (PGI) is all set to commence its third edition starting 16th May to 17th June 2018. Platinum ‘Season of Love’ is an exclusive in-store festival for consumers held at key retail stores across India that offers them an incredible platinum experience. With a bouquet of extraordinary offers, it is an opportune time for the customers to buy platinum jewellery and win exciting rewards in true platinum style.
The third edition of Platinum ‘Season of Love’ will be bigger and better than before as it brings with it a chance to win Platinum Evara jewellery worth ₹3 lakhs, a romantic holiday worth ₹50,000 and a 5-star dinner experience worth ₹5,000. The winner of the grand prize will be presented with exquisite Platinum Evara jewellery that is inspired by ‘Modern Feminine’- an international trend that explores fluidity through interlinks – specifically, interlinking various classic motifs to create an elegant and a contemporary collection which complements the sartorial choice of today’s younger generation.
Any consumer who purchases platinum jewellery will be eligible to participate in this festival by simply filling a contest form and sharing the story of their platinum purchase.
Rare, distinctive and understated platinum jewellery is becoming the preferred choice of the young in India. PGI’s strategy of emotionally branded propositions has led the precious metal to become the ultimate expression of love and commitment among the young in the country. From Platinum Love Bands to Platinum Evara, the minimalistic and classy designs of each collection are crafted for the millennial consumers who seek and follow international trends.
PGI’s “Season of Love” has grown to become an immensely popular program with PGI’s retail partners. Last year the initiative saw retailers witness an increase in the number of footfalls with sales growth accelerating to 52% from 27%. There was also an increase in the number of participating stores, which went up almost three times from 200 to 650. In addition to this the number of cities also scaled up 15 to 69. The current edition will witness around 1000+ retail doors across the country promoting ‘Season of Love’ and will also see the introduction of an online partner ‘Jewelove’ for the first time. “Season of Love” gives an opportunity to the retailers to bring in a new set of customers and present them with an extraordinary consumer experience.
“We are proud to be associated with PGI for the ‘Season of Love’ as we both share a mutual passion for platinum jewellery. In a very short span of time, this initiative has gained momentum in the offline market and we hope to replicate the same in the online space. This is the first time PGI has chosen an exclusive online partner to promote one of their biggest instore programs and we are certain that we will stand true to their and the customers’ expectations.” said Sambhav Karnawat, Founder & CEO, Jewelove.
“We are excited to partner with PGI for ‘Season of Love’ for the third time in a row. The last two editions have been very impactful for us in terms of sales and consumer response. We are anticipating a positive response this year too from our valued consumers considering the increasing popularity of this rare metal amongst the millennials. The exciting rewards offered by PGI this time will appeal to our existing customers as well as will help us connect with a new set of customers.” – Mr N. Anandha Ramanujam, Director, NAC Jewellers
“PGI has always taken initiatives that excite customers and retailers. The ‘Season of Love’ is one such instore program that has helped us attract the millennial audience. We are very optimistic about this season and I am sure our consumers will willingly participate in this with enthusiasm.” Said Mr. Manoj Soni, Director, A B Jewels.
Purity Assurance Program:
In order to assure consumers of the purity of platinum jewellery, Platinum Guild India Pvt. Ltd. has appointed Trust Ever Assurance Services LLP to audit and monitor its Quality Assurance Scheme. Under this scheme, all authentic platinum jewellery in India comes with a Quality Assurance Card and bears the purity mark of “Pt 950” stamped inside the piece. This also serves as an assurance of a ‘buy back’ programme.
