ANALYZE THE STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES
OF THE BRAND'S DIGITAL STRATEGY AND
TOOLS "Our off-line strategy is a strategy of acquiring notoriety because we rely heavily
on our brand image. Moreover, design has a very important place in our strategy,
both for the creation of the jewellery and the visual identity and graphic universe
that defines us,"
explains Pauline.

"For a brand that comes from digital, display is not a common practice. But for
us, it is the ideal means of communication because it corresponds to our
objectives of notoriety. Indeed, jewellery is a rather special sector: we have to be
in the top of mind of consumers because buying a Gemmyo jewel is a
thoughtful act (because of its cost). So we have to be present in their minds when
they have a need, for example for an engagement ring,"
explains Pauline.
