CORE RESPONSIBILITIES

What Can Your Goldsmith Virtual Assistant Take Off Your Bench?

Free your master jeweler hands to solder delicate platinum filigree, set brilliant-cut halos under the microscope, and pour molten gold—without administrative friction stalling your atelier.

Custom CAD Client Proofs & 3D Render Approvals

Stop back-and-forth design stalls with structured client approval portals and clear dimensional notes.

  • Exporting 360-degree turntable video renders and photo angles from MatrixGold / Rhino
  • Preparing client proof sheets detailing shank width, finger size, and center stone dimensions
  • Gathering digital client sign-offs and design modification notes prior to 3D wax printing
  • Dispatching approved STL files to high-resolution casting and resin printing facilities

Precious Metal Casting POs & Scrap Refining Audits

Keep your precious metal inventory balanced down to the tenth of a pennyweight (dwt).

  • Converting wax weight to metal volume (10k, 14k, 18k yellow/white/rose, platinum, 925 silver)
  • Placing casting grain and master alloy purchase orders with casting houses
  • Logging bench sweeps, sprues, vacuum filings, and scrap weights sent to refiners
  • Reconciling refinery assay returns, melt-loss percentages, and fine gold settlement accounts

Diamond Memo Triage & GIA/IGI Certification Checks

Ensure loose stones are tracked, verified, and returned before memo deadlines expire.

  • Requesting center stones on memo from diamond suppliers via RapNet or Polygon
  • Verifying digital GIA / IGI report numbers, carat weight, measurements, and laser inscriptions
  • Tracking 5-to-10 day dealer memo return expiration windows to avoid unwanted billings
  • Sourcing calibrated melee diamond parcels, moissanites, and colored gemstones by millimeter size

Stuller & Rio Grande Findings & Bench Consumables

Never let setting or soldering halt because you are missing one specific setting head or bur.

  • Ordering lobster clasps, friction backs, solder paste, heads, shanks, and bezel cups
  • Maintaining bench consumables: Busch burs, silicone polishers, saw blades, and flux
  • Matching prong tolerances and peg settings to specified gemstone dimensions
  • Auditing vendor invoices against wholesale account volume tiers and precious metal surcharges

High-Value Insured Shipping (Parcel Pro / Malca-Amit)

Protect six-figure bespoke heirlooms and client diamonds during domestic and global transit.

  • Generating armored, double-boxed shipping labels via Parcel Pro or Malca-Amit
  • Verifying Jewelers Mutual and third-party declared value insurance limits
  • Monitoring discreet delivery routing to eliminate "jewelry" or "gold" labeling giveaways
  • Logging adult-signature delivery confirmation receipts and alerting anticipation clients

Custom Commission Job Bags, Repairs & Milestone Billing

Keep your custom bridal pipeline and repair bench moving with pristine milestone accountability.

  • Creating digital job bags in The Edge or Jewel360 with client reference photos
  • Collecting 50% design deposits and milestone payments before casting metal
  • Tracking repair status (ring sizing, prong re-tipping, stone replacement, rhodium plating)
  • Generating retail replacement appraisal documents and certificate of authenticity cards
WHY SAGEDOER

Why Managed Outperforms Freelance Marketplaces for Goldsmiths

Hiring unvetted freelancers on Upwork or Fiverr leaves bench jewelers babysitting overseas contractors while trying to set pavé stones under a microscope. SageDoer delivers a fully supervised operations engine with zero management overhead.

Dedicated Single Point of Contact

You interact strictly with your assigned Project Manager. Send raw bench sketches, gemstone carat notes, casting receipts, or client changes via Slack, WhatsApp, or email—your PM coordinates our VAs, verifies dimensional math and alloy specs against your SOPs, and delivers finished packets on schedule.

Strict Atelier NDA & Trade Secret Protection

Proprietary custom bridal designs, casting master alloys, wholesale Stuller/RapNet discount multipliers, diamond dealer contact registries, and VIP collector client lists are protected under legally binding NDAs and 256-bit encrypted credential vaults with mandatory multi-factor authentication (MFA).

Zero Platform Fees or Markups

No platform subscription cuts, no contractor buy-out ransoms, and no hidden percentage markups. You pay strictly for actual working hours with transparent, auditable time logs detailing completed CAD proofs, PO logs, and insured dispatch confirmations.

Instant Cross-Trained Standby for Peak Seasons

Never let a critical Christmas holiday proposal deadline, Valentine's Day rush, or wedding season delivery fall behind because an assistant is sick. Our internal cross-trained team steps in immediately with zero workflow interruption or retraining headaches for your jewelry studio.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Realistic Answers for Goldsmiths & Custom Bench Jewelers

Clear details about studio boundaries, precious metal security, gemstone memo tracking, and day-to-day operations.

No. The physical, tactile craft of melting gold alloys, torch soldering, wax carving, pavé/bezel stone setting, and final ultrasonic buffing remains strictly your artisan domain at the bench. Our Virtual Assistants handle the heavy digital, procurement, customer care, and logistics machinery that pulls jewelers away from their bench: preparing 3D CAD approval packages for custom bridal clients, converting wax weight into casting grain orders (14k, 18k, platinum), auditing diamond memo return windows, reordering findings and burs on Stuller, and generating insured Parcel Pro shipping labels.
Custom jewelry design files and trade wholesale pricing are valuable intellectual property. All SageDoer team members operate under legally binding non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) drafted specifically for fine jewelry and luxury trade practices. We advocate sharing operational permissions through role-based access controls (such as staff access in The Edge or Jewel360 without master financial export privileges) and sharing credentials through encrypted enterprise vaults like 1Password or Bitwarden with mandatory multi-factor authentication (MFA).
Our fine jewelry support virtual assistants are experienced across standard modern jewelry tools: MatrixGold, Rhino 3D, CounterSketch, Stuller.com, Rio Grande, RapNet, Polygon, GIA and IGI Report Check engines, The Edge, Jewel360, Lightspeed Retail, Parcel Pro, Malca-Amit, Shopify Plus, Craftybase, and QuickBooks. They understand pennyweights (dwt) vs. grams, casting shrinkage allowances, millimeter gemstone tolerances, and jewelry alloy specifications.
Unlike freelance platforms where you waste billable bench hours micromanaging individual contractors, SageDoer pairs you with an experienced Project Manager at zero extra cost. You drop raw bench photos, supplier invoices, GIA cert PDFs, or client custom briefs via Slack, WhatsApp, or Email. Your PM assigns tasks to our skilled jewelry VAs, verifies that casting math, carat weights, and memo dates match your standard operating procedures (SOPs), and returns finished outputs on schedule. You are billed strictly for the VA's active working hours.
Typically within 24 to 48 hours. After an intro scoping session with your dedicated Project Manager to align on your software stack (e.g., The Edge, Stuller, MatrixGold, Parcel Pro), preferred casting suppliers, and current custom commission backlog, we immediately match and assign the best VA from our vetted internal team and start clearing your administrative queue.
None. There are zero onboarding fees, zero recruitment charges, and no long-term lock-in contracts. You pay strictly for actual working hours recorded in transparent, auditable time logs. You can scale between part-time and full-time or adjust support hours as your custom engagement calendar and holiday retail rushes demand.
