Tips to having a successful sale!
Tips to having a successful sale!
Tip #1: Advertise your sale!
Work with your neighbors to make signs advertising your sale. Share the sale date with family, friends and coworkers! Here are some websites where you can advertise your sale:
Craigslist
Tip #2: Price your items before the sale date!
Having your items priced ahead will save you time! Use price stickers or hang signs for categories (e.g., $1 per book)
Tip #3: Organize your items!
Begin gathering your items a few weeks before the sale and give items a wipe down if dusty. This is when you should begin to price your items. Keep bigger items (furniture, appliances) at the front of your sale to draw in shoppers!
Tip #4: Have cash on hand and expect negotiations!
Have plenty of cash on hand to break big bills or make a sign if you accept electronic payment (Venmo, Zelle)
