SENTIMENTAL LOSS also. Devastated because of a sentimental loss? Afraid to wear uninsured jewelry? Unable to cover the cost to replace it? Worried about having to settle for a replacement of a lesser value than the original Don’t want to spend on insurance and spend time on managing an insurance. Forced to work with a jewelry replacement compnay and not my preffered jeweler? Risk of having insurance rates go up

Can you today, with the help of partners, deliver a whole product?
Can’t say now. - Sourcing hardware and manufacturing - In-house Gold/Diamond/Platinum plating & engraving - In-house frontend and backend team of engineers - In-house design
6
Is there entrenched competition that could block you?
Insurance companies Wearables - Fitbit - Swarowski Other location tracking devices - Tile - Stoneteethr - Hiro - LassoTag - Trackr Bravo - Tin Tage
5
If you win this segment, can you leverage it to enter additional segments?
Once I enter the market with affluent women who own expensive jewelry, I will leverage it to enter the insurance and certification market. I can also enter the branded jewelry retail marer and get royalties from brands for using this product with thier brand logo on it.
7
Is the market consistent with my values, passions and goals?
This market is personally very consistant with my values and passions because my family is into the diamond business in India. I have grown up with influences from the diamond market. I will have a huge user base and contacts in the industry with my dad’s connections in the jewelery industry. When I told him about my product he was delighted. My mom and many other friends and relatives have often lost jewelery pieces with sentimental value with no way of tracing back to them. This product with help them and empower them to wear jewellery with peace of mind.
STEP 2| SELECTING A BEACHHEAD MARKET
2
Is the target costumer readily accessible to your sales force?
I will be selling this product online and about 33 % of Affluent Americans prefer to shop online instead of going to the store. I can get in touch with my target costumers through social media platforms, online retailers, Influence blogs. The product will be sold online through our website and other e-commerce platforms like Bluestone, Caratlane, Net-e-porter. Any after sales services can also be managed online through the website.
3
Does the target costumer have a compelling reason to buy?
ONLY 4% OF JEWELRY IS RECOVERED AFTER BEING REPORTED STOLEN.
THE 2ND LOWEST RATE OF STOLEN
$1.54 BILLION OF JEWELRY WAS
PROPERTY
STOLEN IN THE US IN 2014
Jewelry is often not adequately covered under the theft victim’s homeowners or renters insurance, leaving huge out-of-pocket costs for replacing an item that is stolen, lost, or damaged. The average cost of an engagement and wedding ring set in 2014 was $8,000 Other precious items you own (Branded jewelry, bags, wallets) can be just as pricey—if not more—to replace. According to the FBI, only 4% of jewelry is recovered after being reported stolen. The bottom line: If your ring is stolen, you are not likely to get it back. You need insurance coverage that helps you replace a stolen, lost, or damaged engagement ring and other jewelry without extensive out-of-pocket costs. Standard homeowners or renters insurance policy is adequate. Most homeowners insurance policies provide jewelry coverage, but it is limited, even if you have really good coverage. A typical limit for jewelry coverage is around $1,500 (after a deductible), and this is a combined limit that applies to all of the jewelry you have in your household. If you have any one item that is more valuable, your coverage for that item is still limited to $1,500. Most standard homeowners and renters insurance policies only provide jewelry coverage in response to certain “covered perils,” or causes of loss. Most do not cover jewelry for damage (e.g., bent prong and lost stone), or accidental loss (e.g., your ring is lost while swimming).
