Hints for a successful yard sale
|
|
|
Plan at least 2 weeks in advance so you can schedule advertising. |
|
|
Organize everything that you will be selling. Keep like items together
from the beginning. |
|
|
Prepare signs to be put up the night before the sale. Locate areas where
signs can effectively (and legally) be placed. |
|
|
Put prices on everything before the sale. It will save you a lot of time
answering questions and buyers will feel more comfortable. But, be prepared to negotiate! |
|
|
Have as many tables available as possible to place items for sale on. |
|
|
Have $25 or $30 in small bills and coins for change. |
|
|
The day of the sale get up early and prepare. Your first customers will
probably be early! |
