Una tira l'altra

Da Italiano a Inglese Marketing Miniere e Minerali/Pietre preziose jewellery
Buona l’anguria, gustosa l’arancia. E le ciliegie? Una tira l’altra. Voli di api. Dalla Spagna con smalto (a fuoco): gli orecchini e i pendenti in oro per un’infanzia colorata e spensierata. Sennò che infanzia sarebbe?

One good thing leads to another

It looks to me as if this needs to be translated so that it'll attract customers.

"One good thing leads to another", or perhaps "one good thing makes you want another".
