GoHighLevel for Permanent Jewelry Artists: Automate Bookings, Pop-Ups & Deposits in 7 Days
1. The Rise of Permanent Jewelry
Permanent jewelry (aka welded bracelets) exploded on TikTok and Instagram. Pop-up events, boutique experiences, and word-of-mouth have created a booming market, especially among Gen Z and millennials looking for personalized, lasting accessories.
Yet most artists run their business like this:
- Booking: Manual DMs, Instagram comments, or a Calendly link.
- Payments: Venmo/CashApp, no deposits, lots of no-shows.
- Events: Hard to track RSVPs, leads slip through the cracks.
- Follow-Up: Nonexistent. After the bracelet is welded, the customer is gone.
This is where GoHighLevel (GHL) changes the game.
