5 quick tips for selling used products online in UAE

Got something you want to sell quickly online but aren’t sure how to put together the text? Here is a ‘How To’ guide on how best to pen an effective classified advert.

The guide details how users can make the most impact when posting adverts on a classified website with clear, step-by-step tips on writing impactful text and how to select the best images.

What’s more, new social elements on many sites now allow for instant communication, making the process more convenient and saving users’ time.
Users can also connect on WhatsApp and across their other social media platforms to share information related to buying and selling all kinds of products.

1. Which section?

Look at the website and decide which category your product fits under. There are many different categories within a classifieds section of any selling site, so make sure your advert will appear in the right place.

2. Pricing

Take a look at similar items and check their price. Remember you’re selling your product amongst other similar items so it’s important to stay competitive price-wise. Don’t price yourself out of the market by making your starting price too high.

3. Headline

Write a punchy and powerful headline. This is the attention-grabber for the advert. Write a list of all the benefits and qualities of your product, then select the one that stands out the most to you and use it in the headline of your advert.

4. Description

This is one of the most important parts of the advert. Make sure you note the amount of words allowed in the advert. Use concise sentences and make sure you include all the relevant details such as the year the product was purchased, its condition, how frequently has it been used, are there any dents or scratches, have there been any replacement parts etc.

Use as few words as possible and make sure there are no spelling mistakes, as this will make your advert appear less professional (and potentially less reliable).

5. Image

Good quality images are the key to the success of any advert. Make sure you have three or four quality images of the product; take a few with your phone, up close as well as from a distance, to show the size and general appearance of the item for sale.
