Safeguard Your Customers, Strengthen Your Business

As a jeweller, you know that your customers' cherished jewellery and timepieces are more than just accessories–they're symbols of love, milestones, and memories. And while jewellery insurance doesn’t evoke the same level of romanticism, the truth is that accidents and losses can happen. That's why Q Report Insurance may be the perfect solution for your customers–and your business.

Our comprehensive insurance policy covers loss, damage and theft. But our program is more than just a safety net for your customers–it is designed to help you strengthen your relationships and provide exceptional service.
Everybody deserves the peace of mind that comes with Q Report Insurance.

Your Role
Information
Extra Material

You’re in the business of selling jewellery. Let’s keep it that way.

You are simply referring Q Report to your customer!

As a Q Certified Jeweller, you are able to introduce your customers to Q Report. In doing so, you must remember that your role is limited to that of a mere referrer. 

Limiting your role to a referrer ensures that you are protected and that you are not seen as providing any ‘financial service or advice’. 

It also ensures that customers are properly covered and informed about our products and services.

What is Financial Product Advice?

When it comes to insurance, 'Financial product advice' is any recommendation or opinion meant to influence someone's decision regarding purchasing insurance.

So when it comes to Q Report, you cannot advise or recommend to your customer to purchase a policy, as this would be considered providing financial product advice. Your role is simply to introduce or refer them to Q Report. Q Report will then provide them any relevant information and answer any questions they may have and the customer should be left to decide what is most suitable for them.

What Not to Say

Insurance is Complicated, Let Us Handle That

As a professional in the jewellery industry, we understand that your focus is on creating and selling beautiful pieces, not navigating insurance complexities.

To keep things simple and straightforward, it's crucial to know exactly what you can and cannot say about insurance.


What You Can and Cant Say-1


Customer asks you more questions?

Don’t give in to the pressure of answering follow up questions or information about Q Report, just because you understand how Q Report works, you cannot provide any insurance advice and are merely a referrer. There are strict legal limits about what can be said about insurance products and therefore you cannot say anything more than introducing the concept to your client. 

If your client asks you for any information or advice you can always say you don’t sell insurance so you don’t know how to answer their questions. You can then refer your customer to Q Report, which we will show you how to do in a later module. 

Once we have the client details, we will then contact them. We never want to pressure the client into a policy, the decision is in their hands. When they’re ready, we’re ready to help. 

You are not an insurance broker!​

REMEMBER: You cannot provide any insurance advice!​

Jewellers and staff should understand that introducing Q Report is not a hard introduction or cross-sell, but a natural step in the conversation you have with some of your customers purchasing jewellery.

It’s all about asking the right question at the right time.

How to Introduce Q Report?

It's as simple as asking your customer:

"Have you thought about insurance for your new purchase?"

Most of the times, after you ask the question, one of these two things can happen:

1. They answer "no", usually followed by questions like "how can I insure my jewellery?" or "what do you mean?"

2. They answer "yes", often followed by "our home and contents insurance can cover jewellery" or "I thought about talking to my insurance company about that."

Either way, this is the easiest way to trigger the introduction and referral to Q Report.

When to Introduce Q Report?

When is the best time to ask the question?

At the deposit stage.

If you forget to then make sure to do it before they collect the jewellery. 

Once you have asked the question there are a couple of ways you can introduce them to Q Report. 

How to Refer to Q Report

1. Q Portal

 

2. QR Code or Postcard

You should have Q Report Branded QR Code cards or Postcards to hand over to your customers. By simply scanning the QR Code, they can learn all about Q Report and request a quote directly. 

You can order QR Code cards or Postcards from the Q Report Jeweller Team or directly through your Q Portal.

You can also always ask them to just call or email us directly. Alternatively, you can send us their details if they have consented to you passing it on.

Important Information: 4-Day Deferral Rule

The Deferred Sales Model introduced a mandatory 4-day pause between the sale of a principal product, in our case, an item of jewellery from you, and the sale of add-on insurance—a Q Report policy.  

The rationale behind this model is to give the client time to consider the insurance they’ve been offered, compare it to other alternatives and ensure it is right for them.  

Although we pride ourselves on having developed the first comprehensive standalone jewellery insurance product in Australia, this doesn’t change the fact that less ethical insurance providers may push consumers into buying insurance they don’t need. It’s all about protecting the consumer! 

So what does this mean?

From the moment a client orders an item of jewellery AND receives the relevant information about Q Report, we must wait four days before we can issue them an insurance policy. Yes, even if they want it immediately, by law, we need to advise them that they must wait four days. 

Yes, you heard it right - even if they wanted it immediately. 

So how do we ensure that your client can walk out your door with the absolute confidence to enjoy their jewellery anywhere, anytime? By introducing your client to Q Report at the Deposit Stage.

In the vast majority of cases, there are a few weeks between a deposit being paid and the collection of the item. By introducing the Q Report at this stage, your client will have all the information necessary to make an informed decision during the 4-day deferral stage and can get insured when they collect their jewellery.
