B2B demand
Export demand that reaches buyers beyond the trade fair
Explore in the stack ↗Pre-tuned to how this market buys.
Jaipur cuts 300 varieties of gemstones. Most export houses still wait for the buyer to find them.
Rajasthan accounts for 17.5% of India's total gems and jewellery exports, roughly 90% of meenakari jewellery exports, and about 60% of Kundan jewellery exports. Jaipur is the global hub for coloured gemstone cutting and polishing — a fact recognised by GIA research as far back as 2016.
Gems & Jewellery Export GTM · Creative + demand + product · AI-powered execution
The challenge is not craft or capacity. It is reaching international buyers who are not browsing Instagram for suppliers. Buyers search for 'manufacturer', 'supplier', and 'wholesale' queries with specific product and certification parameters — and most Jaipur export houses answer none of them online.
One motion across creative, demand, and product.
The operating loop is the same. The angles, proof, and channel mix change to how this market actually buys.

Explore in the stack ↗What this market rewards, and what it penalises.
Regulation, buying cycle, and channel reality for this industry in India — the constraints the plan is built against.
The export order cycle is the actual funnel
A gems and jewellery export enquiry runs enquiry → sample → costing → PO over roughly two to eight weeks, with the buyer comparing you against three other suppliers in different timezones. Reporting on impressions for this cycle misunderstands the business entirely.
We build around that reality: product and capability content that survives a buyer's shortlist, a sample-request path that captures specification, and automated follow-up that keeps you present during the weeks when nothing appears to be happening.
Trust signals that matter to international buyers
BIS Hallmarking (mandatory since June 2021), GIA certification, and export documentation are not back-office details — they are the first thing a serious buyer screens for. We treat compliance as marketing content, not paperwork.
The Indian market also requires careful claim handling under ASCI Code and PMLA/KYC norms for high-value transactions (over ₹10 lakh), which means how you present pricing and offers has real regulatory boundaries.
The Jaipur advantage we build around
The 300-year gem cutting heritage in Jaipur is genuine provenance, and most competitors do not leverage it. The JAIPUR JEWELLERY BRAND and GIA Jaipur presence create authority signals that are free but underused.
WhatsApp is the default B2B communication channel in this trade. We build lifecycle and buyer follow-up around it rather than bolting it on as an afterthought.

The markets we focus this playbook on.
- Jaipur (gemstone cutting & polishing hub)
- Delhi NCR (trade & commerce)
- Mumbai (diamond & precious stone trading)
- Surat (diamond cutting)
Why gems & jewellery export teams pick dongolabs.
- Built for the export order cycle — enquiry to sample to PO — not a D2C funnel wearing B2B clothes.
- Product and capability pages that answer MOQ, lead time, finishes, and certification — the queries buyers actually type.
- Trade-fair extension: named buyer follow-up, timezone-aware sequences, and remarketing so one fair pays for months.
- Compliance as content: BIS hallmarking, GIA certification, and PMLA/KYC boundaries presented clearly.
Not the right call if…
- You want daily social posts with no connection to buyer enquiries
- You cannot share product specifications, MOQ, or lead times we can publish
- You expect guaranteed export orders without an audit of the current funnel
Based in Jaipur? There's a local version of this playbook.

Gems & Jewellery Export GTM — answered
Plain answers about how dongolabs runs go-to-market for gems & jewellery export.
01How is gemstone export marketing different from regular digital marketing?
An export enquiry runs enquiry → sample → costing → PO over roughly two to eight weeks, the decision-maker is a procurement head abroad, and the deciding factors are specification, lead time, certification, and response speed. So the work is buyer-intent SEO, catalogue and capability content, and follow-up automation — not a social content calendar.
02Should we still attend trade fairs like JJS and IIJS?
Yes. In the gems and jewellery trade, face-to-face is where trust is built. What we do is extend the fair: capture the buyer list properly, run timezone-aware follow-up sequences, remarket to visitors, and keep a linkable catalogue live so the conversation continues after the event.
03Can you help with compliance content?
We present it clearly, not certify it. BIS Hallmarking (mandatory since June 2021), GIA certification, export documentation, and PMLA/KYC norms for high-value transactions are all screened by buyers, so we make what you can genuinely meet explicit on the page.
04How much does it cost?
Sprints or monthly retainers sized to the work rather than a fixed menu. A quote follows a diagnosis — we will not price an export funnel we have not looked at.
