GullySales

E-commerce · Jewellery

Buyers like the chain but want to know what they are paying for each gram.

Gold is the one kind of jewellery where the buyer can work out your margin. They know the rate, they can estimate the weight of a bangle, and they compare your making charge with the jeweller near their home. If your listing shows one final price that has changed since their last visit, they assume the worst.

A 90-minute audit call and a written, scored report. Turnaround, reporting and term are agreed in writing after the audit.

In one paragraph

Gold jewellery online means chains, bangles, rings, earrings and coins in 22, 18 or 14 carat, priced from a gold rate that moves and a making charge that differs by design. GullySales works on how your gold listings explain weight, rate and making charge, how fast a price question gets answered, and how a buyer finds the right weight for their budget.

Lightweight pieces for office and college wear suit online selling, because the order stays within what a stranger will risk on a website. Heavier pieces still close on a video call or at the counter.

Last updated 7 Oct 2026. Product, labelling and advertising rules for jewellery differ by product and change. We describe them in general terms, so check the current position with your own adviser or the regulator before you publish a claim.

Who it is for

This is written for you if you sell gold jewellery online.

  • Showroom jewellers moving their lightweight range online
  • Online gold brands selling 14 and 18 carat everyday pieces
  • Sellers of gold coins and small gifting pieces for festivals
  • Jewellers who run an old gold exchange and want online buyers to use it

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • Sellers who cannot correct listing prices when the gold rate moves
  • Anyone expecting a heavy necklace to sell through an ad and a checkout page, with no conversation in between

How buyers choose

What decides the sale of gold jewellery.

  1. Carat and the stamp

    22 carat for traditional pieces, 18 or 14 for everyday and stone-set designs. The buyer wants the carat in the title and the stamp in a close-up photograph.

  2. Weight, rate and making charge

    Gross weight, net gold weight, the rate used and the making charge, per gram or flat. Wastage, if you charge it, is the line buyers argue about.

  3. Sizes for bangles, rings and chains

    Bangles are bought by Indian bangle size, chains by length, and rings by a size the buyer has to measure at home. A printable ring sizer on the page saves a return.

Where sales are lost

What usually goes wrong when you sell gold jewellery online.

In the words sellers use on the first call.

  • “Our listed price goes out of date when the rate moves”

    A buyer who saw one price on Instagram and another at checkout feels cheated, even when the gold rate explains the gap. The listing has to say which rate it used.

  • “Bangles keep coming back in the wrong size”

    Each gold return is insured shipping twice. A resized piece is no longer new stock.

  • “Coin buyers never come back for jewellery”

    Someone who bought a gold coin from you at Dhanteras already trusts you with gold. Nothing invites them to look at your chains or earrings afterwards.

The scope

The work we would propose for gold jewellery.

Measured on purchases, conversion rate, cost to win a customer, average order value and repeat purchases. Anything here that needs a platform or tool we have not used with you is confirmed in the audit before it goes in the scope.

What we do

What you get for gold jewellery.

Each deliverable and what it is there to change.

  1. A price breakup line for every gold listing

    Gross weight, net weight, carat, rate used, making charge, wastage if any and GST, in the same order on every page, so buyers can compare you fairly.

  2. A bangle and ring size guide

    Indian bangle sizes and ring sizes measured at home, with a printable sizer, so fewer pieces travel twice.

  3. An exchange and buy-back page

    Your policy in plain words with one example worked through, linked from each listing.

  4. A close-up shot list per design

    Which photographs show the carat stamp, the clasp and the piece on a weighing scale, so the buyer sees the proof without asking.

How the result is measured

  • Purchases
  • Conversion rate
  • Average order value
  • Customer acquisition cost
  • Return rate
  • Size returns and resize requests

Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.

How it works

From your first message to the first report.

No open-ended retainer. Every step gives you something in writing.

  1. First

    Free audit call

    90 minutes with whoever handles your enquiries: how they arrive, how fast they are answered, where they are lost.

  2. After the call

    Written, scored report

    Six areas scored, fixes ranked by return and cost. If you want our help, the scope, the fee and the reporting come with it, in writing.

  3. Before work starts

    Baseline recorded

    Enquiries by source, reply time, conversion and cost per order, written down so every later report has an honest comparison.

  4. After the baseline

    The first fix goes live

    Usually the cheapest one on the report: reply time, a follow-up sequence or the marketing-to-sales handover.

  5. As agreed

    Report against the baseline

    What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words. How often you get it is set in writing before work starts.

  6. At renewal

    Renew on the numbers

    The term ends and you decide whether to continue from the results. The length is agreed in writing before anything starts.

What we need from you

What to have ready before the audit call.

None of it has to be tidy. We read what you have.

  • Your current gold listings and how their prices are set
  • Making charge and wastage rules by design
  • Ring and bangle returns and resize requests
  • Your exchange and buy-back policy as it stands
  • Festival coin sales and who bought them

Selling in India and abroad

Selling gold jewellery beyond your own market.

Where you sell decides sizes, units, seasons and returns. We work from Bengaluru and have no overseas office, so for a new country we start from your own sales and the platforms you already use.

  1. Carat and marking rules abroad

    Buyers in the Gulf, the UK and the US read carat and purity marks under their own country's rules. What your listing claims for them is checked with your adviser before you sell there.

  2. Gold as a declared parcel

    Duty, import limits and insurance on gold differ by destination and change. So the first step is the orders you already have, such as NRI families buying for delivery to an Indian address.

FAQ

Questions about selling gold jewellery online.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Should I show the gold rate on every product page?
Show the rate used for the price and the date it applies to. Buyers compare it with the rate they saw that morning, and a gap they cannot explain ends the order. If your store cannot refresh it on its own, a clear note and a WhatsApp check before payment will do.
How do I sell heavy gold pieces online?
Treat the website as the first step, not the checkout. Show the design, weight range and breakup, then offer a video call or a showroom visit. For these pieces we count booked calls alongside purchases.
Will people buy gold from a website they have never heard of?
Some will, for lightweight pieces, once the stamp, weight, breakup and return terms are on the page. The first order is the hard one, which is why we fix the listing before spending on ads.
How much does it cost?
There is no price list, because the work differs by business. The fee is scoped in the free audit and put in writing before anything starts, split into our time, your media spend and production.
How long is the contract?
The term is agreed in writing after the audit, along with the fee and the reporting. It is never a default twelve months, and renewal is decided on the numbers against the baseline recorded at the start.
How soon will we see results?
Fixes to reply time, follow-up and your Google Business Profile are the quickest to show, because the enquiries already exist. Ads can follow soon after follow-up is in place. SEO and content take longer. How long each takes depends on your business, and the audit tells you which applies to you. Nothing here is guaranteed.
Who will actually do the work?
The person you meet on the audit call. We work from one office in Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru, with no account managers in between.
What do you need from us?
For the audit, last month's enquiries in any format and 90 minutes with whoever handles them. After that, access to the accounts the work touches, such as the website, Google Business Profile or CRM, and time for the review meetings.
What if we are not happy with the work?
Tell us and the plan changes. Everything is reported against the baseline, so a number that is not moving is visible to both sides. The term is in your written scope, and the refund and cancellation policy sets out the rest.
