"This is my 40th year at the bench. Learned this business from my parents who were jewelers for 50 years. INSTORE is a unique publication that asks questions from many and in turn allows everyone to view the answers/opinions. It helps us to grow our business with this feedback. I might have the opportunity to chat with a fellow jeweler here in town on occasion, but through your surveys, I get to hear what many jewelers are thinking." — Teri Vogan, Vogan Gold & Silver Works, Colorado Springs, CO
