Tips on Placing a FREE classified ad


If you've been having a clear out, or have recently updated your household equipment and want to sell your old stereo, then a few tips might help you to achieve that cash!

 

1) Be honest about the quality of your goods, you want your customers to be happy, and that will only happen if your description matches the item they then receive.

 

2) Try not to over price (or under value) your item.  Remember that older technology looses its value quite quickly, but ornaments and jewellery could have a higher value than you might think.

 

3) Do your homework! Look at other adverts in your local paper and on line (search Activ for other similar items), and look at the descriptions other people are using for similar items.  There will be lots of key facts and figures, as well as buzzwords that will help people find your items before others, if you use the right description.

 

4) Check your spelling, people are much more likely to buy items from people that present themselves well.

 

5) Use a good quality photo that you have taken of the actual item you are selling.  People will trust this more than a picture copied from the manufacturers web site.

 

Good luck selling!
