Episode #55: Bill and Charlie Nusser, Hands Jewelers

Real Success with Nate Kaeding

"On today’s episode, I sit down with Bill and Charlie Nusser, the father and son duo behind Hands Jewelers, a venerable family-operated store in Iowa City providing jewelry, gems, and watches, for over 165 years.

Bill and Charlie both share their respective stories about how they first joined the family business, how they navigate the line between business and family, and they explore the unique ways their business has evolved over time. Additionally, Bill reflects on some of the worst adversity the business has faced, Charlie shares how his approach to the financials has shifted, and they both explore what real success means to them.

I learned a lot, and I think you will too." - Nate
