Before requesting bulk jewelry quotations, wholesalers, importers and brands should prepare an assortment brief. This gives the supplier enough context to recommend relevant designs and prevents a large catalog from replacing a clear buying objective.
Describe the business and market
State the company name, website, main market and whether products are sold through online, physical, wholesale or mixed channels. This information helps match style, material and presentation without making unsupported sales predictions.
Define assortment roles
Separate core items, seasonal additions, price-entry styles, coordinated groups and custom developments. Decide how many studs, hoops, pendants, chains, rings or bracelets the assortment requires.
Choose material directions
Identify the intended mix of sterling silver, brass and stainless steel. Confirm whether each group uses plain metal, CZ, pearl or synthetic opal. Truli’s current stone-set products use CZ and are not natural-stone or gemstone products.
Set visual boundaries
Share references for scale, silhouette, finish and plating color. Note styles to avoid as well as preferred motifs. A focused direction produces a more useful selection than generic requests for best sellers.
Prepare the price structure
Use target price bands as a planning tool, then compare products on matching specifications. Metal, weight, dimensions, CZ quantity, construction, finish and packaging may all affect the quotation.
Estimate quantities and timing
Provide an estimated quantity per style or for the overall project and the target launch or delivery window. Commercial terms should be confirmed for the specific request; do not rely on universal MOQ or lead-time statements.
Identify sample priorities
Mark new mechanisms, special settings, important core items and custom designs for sampling. Define what the sample must confirm: dimensions, function, CZ or pearl details, finish, logo and packaging.
Bulk assortment brief checklist

- Material and decorative direction

Turn the brief into a controlled order
Once designs are shortlisted, create SKU-level specifications and approvals. The assortment brief guides selection; it does not replace technical product records.
A clear B2B brief helps both parties spend time on relevant products and realistic order decisions.
