# Jewellery shop customer calling for festivals and schemes

> Jewellery shop customer calling works for three jobs: inviting past buyers before Akshaya Tritiya, Dhanteras and wedding season, reminding gold savings scheme members of their monthly instalment, and booking store visits for enquiries. An AI employee can do all three in Telugu, Hindi or English, note what the customer wants to see, and leave pricing and design advice to your counter staff.

## Three calling jobs in a jewellery store

A family jewellery store in Warangal has 6,000 customers in its billing book, 800 members in its monthly gold savings scheme, and a steady flow of enquiries from Instagram and Facebook ads before every festival. The owner's nephew used to call people in the afternoons. Now the shop is busier, and the calls stop exactly when they matter most.

- **Festival invites:** past buyers before Akshaya Tritiya, Dhanteras, Diwali and wedding season.
- **Scheme reminders:** monthly instalment due dates and maturity for gold savings scheme members.
- **Enquiry calls:** new leads from ads, called quickly and booked for a store visit.

## Festival invites to past buyers

Akshaya Tritiya and Dhanteras are when many families buy at least a small piece of gold. A call a week before, to customers who bought in the last two years and agreed to hear offers, brings them back to you rather than the big showroom down the road.

- Telugu: "Namaskaram Lakshmi garu, Akshaya Tritiya ki maa shop lo kotha temple jewellery collection vachindi. Making charges meeda offer kuda undi. Shop ki eppudu ravadaniki veelu avutundi?" (A new temple jewellery collection has arrived for Akshaya Tritiya, with an offer on making charges. When would you like to visit?)
- Hindi: "Namaste Meena ji, Dhanteras ke liye naye designs aaye hain. Kya aap Saturday ko dekhne aana chahengi?" (New designs have arrived for Dhanteras. Would you like to come and see them on Saturday?)

The AI employee asks what they are looking for: bangles, a chain, earrings for a child, a coin for puja. That one answer lets your counter staff keep the right trays ready. The wider festival plan is in our [festival offer calling campaign guide](https://agents.elevatebox.in/blog/festival-offer-calling-campaign).

## Gold savings scheme reminders

Monthly gold schemes keep a customer tied to your store for a year. They also depend on 11 or 12 instalments being paid on time. Members who miss two months often drop out and take their savings elsewhere at maturity.

1. Three days before the instalment date: "Mee gold scheme instalment ₹3,000, ee nela 10th ki undi." (Your gold scheme instalment of ₹3,000 is due on the 10th.)
2. Ask how they will pay: at the store, UPI, or bank transfer.
3. At maturity: invite them to choose their jewellery, and book a visit time.

Keep these calls as polite as any payment reminder. No pressure, no talk of penalties beyond the scheme's written terms, and anything disputed goes to the store manager. Our [microfinance EMI reminder post](https://agents.elevatebox.in/blog/emi-reminder-calls-local-language-microfinance) shows the same polite style for loan instalments.

## Enquiry calls from ads

Someone sees your bridal set ad at 10 pm and fills the form. If you call at noon the next day, she has already visited two other stores. With Instant Leads, the AI employee calls within seconds during calling hours, or first thing in the morning, and asks:

- What are you looking for, and for which occasion?
- Is there a wedding date, and roughly when?
- Gold, diamond or silver? Any weight or budget in mind?
- When can you visit the store, and how many people will come?

A family shopping for a wedding in six weeks is the most valuable lead your store will get this month. The AI employee marks it Hot and books the visit, so the owner can make the personal follow-up call. See [call leads within 5 minutes](https://agents.elevatebox.in/blog/respond-to-leads-within-5-minutes) for why speed matters.

## What it must not say

- No predictions about gold prices going up or down.
- No suggestion to buy gold as an investment.
- No quoting today's rate unless you update it in the brief daily; better to say the store will share it.
- No promises on making charges beyond the written offer.
- No comments on purity beyond what your hallmarked pieces carry.

## What the store sees each evening

| Call type | Captured fields |
| --- | --- |
| Festival invite | Interested item, visit date and time, number of people |
| Scheme reminder | Will pay on time, payment mode, any problem |
| Scheme maturity | Visit booked, item of interest |
| New enquiry | Occasion, wedding date, metal, budget band, visit booked |

Cost stays small. For example, 800 scheme reminders a month at about 50 seconds, plus 200 enquiry calls at two minutes: around 1,070 minutes, roughly ₹8,539 at ₹7.98 a minute. Unanswered calls are not charged. Check your numbers with the [cost calculator](https://agents.elevatebox.in/tools/ai-calling-cost-calculator).

## Old gold exchange enquiries

Many festival buyers want to exchange old gold for new pieces. When a customer mentions it, the AI employee notes roughly what they plan to bring (a chain, old bangles, broken earrings) and reminds them to bring ID and any old bill if they have it. It does not estimate the exchange value. Your staff test the gold at the counter, and the customer sees the result there.

## Planning for wedding season

In the Telugu states, wedding season brings a rush of families buying sets, mangalsutras and gifts. Two months before the busy muhurtham dates, a call to past buyers who agreed to hear offers can ask whether there is a wedding in the family this year. A yes is a Hot lead. The AI employee books a family visit on a weekday if possible, when your senior staff have time to sit with them.

Keep separate lists for festival invites, scheme members and new enquiries. Each needs its own brief and calling schedule, and mixing them confuses both the customer and your staff.

## Getting the lists ready

Your billing software already has most of what you need. For festival invites, export customers who bought in the last two years with their last purchase and preferred language. For scheme reminders, export active members with instalment amount, due date and months paid. For enquiries, connect the ad form so new leads arrive on their own.

Remove customers who asked not to be called, and keep consent records for anyone who joined a scheme or filled a form. For festival offers to people who have not bought recently, check DND before calling. Clean lists mean fewer angry calls and better answers.

A store owner who reads the evening list for two weeks usually spots a pattern: which areas send most visitors, which items customers ask about, and which days fill up first. Plan staff and stock around it.

## Frequently asked questions

### Can AI remind gold savings scheme members of their instalment?

Yes. It calls each member a few days before the due date in their language, confirms the amount and payment mode, and flags anyone with a problem to the store manager. At maturity it books a visit to choose jewellery.

### Will the AI employee tell customers today's gold rate?

Only if you update the rate in its brief each day. Most stores prefer it to say the shop will share today's rate at the visit, and it never predicts where gold prices are heading.

### When should a jewellery store call customers before Dhanteras?

About a week to ten days before, so families can plan a visit. Call past buyers who agreed to hear offers, ask what they want to see, and book a time so staff can prepare.

### How does a jewellery shop handle wedding enquiries from ads?

Call them within minutes, ask about the occasion, wedding date, metal and rough budget, and book a family visit. Mark these leads Hot so the owner can personally follow up before the visit.
