South Dakota’s Top Rated Local® Jewelry Stores Award Winner: Faini Designs Jewelry Studio

Top Rated Local® is pleased to announce that Faini Designs Jewelry Studio is a two-time 2019 award winner in South Dakota!

With a wide range of jewelry and services, including custom design and jewelry repair, there’s no better jewelry store to turn to in Sioux Falls than Faini Designs Jewelry Studio.

Faini Designs Jewelry Studio has received dozens of reviews on four verified sites with an average rating of 4.95 stars, earning them a phenomenal Rating Score™ of 97.49 and two 2019 Top Rated Local awards — one for being ranked among the top 100 businesses and one for being ranked the number one jewelry store in all of South Dakota!

Here’s just one of their many five-star reviews:

“When my fiancee and I went in search of an engagement ring, I wasn’t sure what I wanted except for one specific: I did not want a diamond. I wanted an opal. With every other jewelry store we walked into, we quickly left in disappointment and frustration. The moment we said ‘opal,’ their faces dropped, and they showed us the rather limited selection they had of that stone. None of them seemed interested in working with us until we got to Faini’s. They were so friendly and accommodating. [They] didn’t brush us off because we weren’t after a diamond. They worked with us to help us create a one-of-a-kind ring that fits who we are. And when we returned for the wedding bands, they again blew us away with their amazing customer service and willingness to help us find the pieces that fit us.” – Jamie S.

Not Your Average Jewelry Store

Gerard Faini, the owner of Faini Designs Jewelry Studio, generously gave us a few minutes of his time to tell us about his award-winning business and its superb online reputation.

To kick off our conversation, we asked Gerard what it is that sets Faini Designs Jewelry Studio apart from the many other jewelry stores in South Dakota. Here’s his response:

“When you want to give something to someone you love, we make that dream come true for you. We make jewelry that the grandkids want to fight over, jewelry that will last forever.”

We also wanted to know what their mission is at Faini Design Jewelry Studio and how they work to make the world a better place. Gerard shared with us that they provide a community-feel in their store and that all of their customers are friends.

Gerard went on to say:

“We make memories that last a lifetime. Jewelry is a memory.”

Building Success by Being There for Customers’ Needs

Gerard attributes Faini Designs Jewelry Studio’s strong online reputation to their commitment to being there for their customers’ needs and to never treating them like just another sale. Faini Designs Jewelry Studio has been serving Sioux Falls forever, and in all of that time, they’ve remained dedicated to treating their customers like family and to selling because of needs rather than numbers.

Outside of building a powerful online reputation, Faini Designs Jewelry Studio has gotten their name out there through Facebook, billboards and television, as well as by working with children’s charities.

There are so many business owners looking to build the kind of online reputation Faini Designs Jewelry Studio has. Here’s Gerard’s expert advice for them:

“Be honest. Be transparent. Be true to the customer.”
