LOS ANGELES, CA , April 03, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Reign Sapphire Corp. (OTCQB: RGNP) ("Reign" or the "Company"), a direct-to-consumer, custom
and branded jewelry company, is pleased to provide a shareholder update in conjunction with filing our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.
Overview
In 2017, management focused primarily on integrating its internal fulfillment, customer service and marketing system and on
streamlining operations. While revenue declined as a result of consolidation and reduction in wholesale revenue, gross margin increased from 47.5% to 60.1%.
2017 Accomplishments
Much of our efforts in 2017 focused on integrating our brands into our centralized operations to achieve scale and supply chain
efficiencies and allow greater ROI on marketing and advertising, key drivers, due to our direct-to-consumer model.
A key factor in our sales success is the growth of our social media following which is now over 200,000 Facebook and Instagram
followers across our brands.
Strategic Marketing Optimization
In 2017, we began refining our marketing strategies to accelerate sales growth and restructure our sales strategy to improve
profitability. Thus far in 2018, revenues are starting to resume growth and gross margins continue to improve year-over-year. We
believe this is an indication of traction from the modifications we have made to our marketing strategy as well as new sales
initiatives.
Summary
Initiatives in January, February, and March of 2018, whilst primarily operational in nature, are starting to take effect, as
demonstrated by a number of improving sales and marketing metrics.
Due to the effects of these and other planned initiatives, we anticipate continued improvement in sales and profitability in
2018.
