More and more products are bought and sold online. If you decide to sell something, you need to know how to write a classified ad that will attract the largest number of buyers.
Instructions
Step 1
The headline in the ad should be large, clear, reflecting not only the subject, but also the purpose of the sale. For example: "Selling a house", "Phone for sale".
Step 2
When making an advertisement for sale, it is necessary to indicate the technical characteristics of the product: model, release date, dimensions, etc.
Step 3
It is advisable to compose a more detailed description of the product, paying special attention to its merits and avoiding talking about the shortcomings only if they are not conspicuous defects. Disadvantages are subjective. Maybe what you didn't like about this thing won't matter to the new owner.
Step 4
Defects should be written down and even photographed. Just so as not to waste his time and the buyer, if it suddenly turns out that he does not want to buy a product with a defect, no matter how insignificant it may be.
Step 5
If the reason for the sale looks good, it can be helpful to include that as well. For example, "they gave it, but I don't need it." It is better not to specify the reason "I am selling the house because I got the rowdy neighbors", otherwise you can scare away potential buyers from your ad.
Step 6
It is advisable to add a photo of the item being sold to the advertisement for sale. It is better if it will be several photographs taken from different angles so that the buyer can get a complete picture. As practice shows, advertisements for sale without photos are collected by an order of magnitude less interested parties.
Step 7
Don't forget to include the price! If you yourself are not sure about it and are ready to bargain, it is better to write the price approximately and indicate that “bargaining is appropriate”. Not everyone wants to call and find out what price you mean.
Step 8
Provide contact information where you can be easily found. Better together with a mobile phone, which has a tendency to periodically discharge and be out of reach, indicate your home phone number or your e-mail address.
