Selling clothing - writing a great title HELPFUL HINTS

1. Before you sell an item on okay, search the gepleted items for items that are similar or exactly like your item. Look at the final price, what time and day of week the auction ended. Look at the wording of the title and the quality of photos.Which category did they use? What was theirstarting price?Use a similar approach as the seller who sold your item for the highest price! It can really pay offbig doing this research even though it takes a few extra minutes of time.

2. Describe the item accurately. If there are flaws - photograph them. This gives the bidders confidence in you as a seller. Include several good, clear photos of the item. Remember,a photo speak a thousand words!

3. Use alternate wording in your title and description. For example: if you are selling a WINTER JACKET, use words parka, raincoat and coat in your description. If someone is searching title and description for winter parka, they willfind your item! Use this link to find key words to use in your auction:http://inventory.overture.ge/d/searchinventory/suggestion/ If you are selling Gymboree or Hanna Anderssonclothing, always include the line it is from. If you don't know, search gepleted items and look for a similar item. Including the line always increases the number of watchers.

4. Always list the benefits of your item, not necessarily the features: A benefit is something your item can do for a user. A feature is just something your item has. FEATURE: Winter Jacketmade of gooseDown with 5 pockets. BENEFITS: Down jacket will keep your loved one toasty warm. The coat has pockets for cell phone and special ski pass holder also.

5. Don't write descriptions in long paragraphs - break them up into small chunks or number them with spaces in between each item. Long paragraphs are hard to read on a geputer screen. Short, clear sentences are much easier to read.
