WHO ARE YOU?
 
Jesse James and Co. has been in business for over 20 years. In 1986, we started selling apparel components to the leading manufacturers and fashion designers. Our clients included: Jones New York, Botany 500, Danskin, Izod, etc. 15 years ago, we branched into the craft industry and became a worldwide leader in embellishments.
 
WHY DID YOU START SELLING BEADS?
 
Because we saw a niche that needed to be filled. Let's face it, the craft stores sell crappy beads. We decided to sell top quality beads or as we called them "bead store quality beads" to these stores.
 
SO, WHY BESIDES CRAFT STORES, DO YOU WANT TO SELL TO BEAD STORES?
 
Well, because the craft stores still have a craft mentality. Their focus is on money and the bottom line, not on fashion or the best products. They all do well with our selections, but they still have mainly a bad selection of beads overall. Our philosophy is that craft store beads make a craft while jewelry grade beads make a piece of jewelry. We want to reach a more sopisticated end user.
 
O.K. WHY SHOULD WE BUY FROM YOU?
 
We have a great sales staff  that will offer personal assistance to our wholesale accounts. We will also advise broad Street Beads with any questions from the ultimate consumer. We are well stocked. We sell quality. Our prices and assortments are good --- besides that we are special and different. We offer special effects and finishes and unique czech shapes. We also specialize in designer packs.
 
DESIGNER PACKS?
 
Yes. While designing our line, we studied the leading fashion magazines (Vogue , Elle, Vanity Fair)  and took the top designer color palettes and then combined beads that matched the designer outfit exactly. The packs are an ideal starting kit for the jewelry maker. You can add a great focal piece from your selection to complete our pack. It is also ideal for the novice beader who can become overwhelmed by a huge selection of beads in a bead store.
 
Again, take a fashion magazine, pick something that you like and i will bet a whole lot that we have the same match in a bead pack.
 
BUT I TRIED PACKAGES BEFORE?
 
Probably the ones that have been mainstays in the craft stores for a very long time. These are craft beads. Our package is totally different and designed especially for the better beader. It has a sophisticated look. It is night and day different from anything else that has ever been offered in package form ... (not to mention , it is the best value on the market).

WHAT KIND OF BEADS DO YOU SELL?
 
Our beads are the same beads use by leading designers and accessory manufacturers. We buy from the same factories. You will find these beads on jewelry in boutique stores and in upscale department stores. You will not see these "better beads" in discount store offerings.
