Building Customer Relationships Through Bespoke Jewelry - with BBC Repair Shop Jewellery Expert Richard Talman

Bring Your Product Idea to Life

Today, I'm thrilled to introduce you to my special guest, Richard Talman from RTFJ Jewellery. Richard is a master goldsmith who designs and handcrafts bespoke jewellery from precious metals, creating meaningful, memorable pieces that clients treasure for a lifetime. He's also passionate about upcycling and restoring old jewellery, giving it new life.

Richard's expertise goes beyond his craft—he’s the jewellery expert on the popular BBC TV show The Repair Shop, where he brings his knowledge and passion for restoration to a wider audience. In our chat, we dive into the world of goldsmithing, the meticulous work it involves, and the importance of preserving traditions through apprenticeships. We also discuss the value of personalised service, with Richard sharing how customised experiences can benefit any business.

Even if jewellery isn't your primary interest, I believe you'll find a lot to learn from Richard's approach to craftsmanship and customer care.
