8 tips to make your listing perfect – follow our secrete recipe to success.
1. Good photos
Here are few examples:
Consistency is key. Pick the style of photos you want and stick to it.
You have 4 images to showcase your item, make them count. We recommend:
- Image 1 – a clear image of the full item
- Image 2 – a close up of the tag
- Image 3 – a close up of the details
- Image 4 – a model with the item on for reference
Stick to natural light and avoid shadows
Pick the perfect background to match your style. Keep it clean so your item pops
The aim is to showcase your items truly – never post images that aren’t yours
A couple of good resources:
2. Get your title right
The title is extremely important, and determines where you rank in our search.
- Think of what you would type into google to find your item
- Add key descriptors at the front of the title
- Try: Pink Gucci sweater vest cotton
- Avoid: Very nice vest
3. Select the correct attributes
These attributes help buyers find your items easily, make sure you select them properly. If we are missing any attributes that describe your item, contact us and we will add them in.
4. Describe your item
This is your chance to tell customers the details specific to your item. Follow a structure across all your listings to stay consistent.
- Add measurements. Sizes can vary a lot between brands, so add the exact measurements of the item to let buyers know the true fit.
- Describe the details. Talk about the colour, style, material and any other keywords or characteristics which makes your item special.
- Reasons to buy from you. Finish off your description with unique reasons why customers should buy from you (e.g sustainable packaging, next day delivery, rare items)
5. Tag your item
Use unique tags to further refine the searchability of your item. Items with irrelevant/incorrect/spam tags will be removed from the catalog.
6. Price
Setting the right price is one of the most important parts of listing your item. To value your item:
- Check how much similar items are selling for
- Think how much you would personally spend on the item
7. Shipping
Use shipping as an opportunity to turn your store into a brand and build customer loyalty. Personalise your packaging and ship fast. Go the extra mile to make your customer feel special.
8. Communication
Effective communication is the number one, most important aspect of being a seller.
