Jewelry Affiliate Programs and Gold Fluctuations

Was reading in Wall Street Journal on the price of gold and noticed that Gold Futures are tumbling down. Apparently, Gold has given up it’s gain for the year and is affected by a fall in oil futures. Here is why need to care about “Second Quarter Jewelry Demand for Gold fell 24% year over year”

To me, that is a red flag for promoting gold jewelry as consumers are pairing back purchases and ultimately your affiliate plan as well.

Question: What can you do to promote jewelry?

Answer: Weddings, Engagement, Anniversary – Are people stop getting engaged? Of course not.

So don’t let Gold affect your plan, just focus on diamonds! Cheers
