The jewellery calendar is made of occasions, not campaign weeks
A jeweller's customer does not behave like a subscriber. She visits three times in eight weeks before a wedding, then disappears for four years, then returns for an anniversary piece. That rhythm is why blanket monthly mailers fail here and why a small number of occasion-triggered sequences work so well. The unit of automation is not the month, it is the moment: a shortlist viewed, a design approved, an instalment due, a piece ready for collection, a wedding date approaching. Build for those, and the database stops being a list and starts behaving like a customer book.
Bridal is a slow sequence, collection is a fast one
Cadence should match the decision. A bridal family choosing between four showrooms needs presence across weeks, not pressure across days: a note with the photographs taken during the visit, then a quiet second appointment offer, then nothing until the wedding month comes into view. A repair ready for collection is the opposite — two short notes inside a week and then a phone call. Running both at the same tempo is the most common configuration mistake in jewellery retail.
