Selling Costume Jewelry
Posted on | February 28, 2010 | No Comments
There are many avenues to sell costume jewelry, whether it is online, in a store, or at a marketplace. There are a few tips you should practice if you decide to sell your stuff at a flea market. A flea market can be a great way to drive customers to your local business or even online store, by letting them pick up a few pieces they really like at affordable prices, and then letting them know they can always find similar pieces and deals at you website. We will go over a handful of tips that you can employ to really make your booth stand out.
The first thing is you need to have a nice clean area. You don’t want to look cluttered, because you want people to feel they can carefully look over our selection without having to dig through multiple bins and shift through piles when you can have it displayed out in a nice array. Making sure to have a wide variety of your stock available is important too. Having the most important pieces out and a few alterations behind the counter can really help you make sales as people see what they like and then ask if you have it in another color or similar style.
A big bright well-made sign can be very helpful to draw the eyes of the mass of people shuffling through the market. You can clearly state who you are and what you are selling and people will remember your particular booth more than just the random ones full of items with no name or sign. You need to make sure you have a nice stack of flyers or business cards with your website on it, so that people who enjoy your products can obtain them anytime.
Spreading the name of your business through word of mouth can be a great way to secure local sales and if you have a flair for traveling you can even make the rounds to major flea markets. Online advertising can be important, but depending on the types of costume jewelry you have, you may want to aim for an older crowd or one that doesn’t spend a lot of time on the internet. Nothing wrong with doing a few extra flea market visits on the weekends to really build a faithful base of customers to keep them coming back to purchase more and more from you.
