How To Improve Rummage Sale - Sales

Tips to Improve Sales

  • Greet people who come to your garage sale and engage them in conversation.

  • Encourage shoppers to return during a two day sale. Post signs to say that new items will be added daily or that prices will be reduced on the second day.

  • Have a silent auction on expensive items. Ask customers to submit bids along with their name and phone numbers. Put in a reserve bid, if you wish.

  • Be organized with your sale items! If everything is jumbled together, many people won't bother to look for bargains. Tables can be made from sawhorses and lumber. A few hooks and some string will let you hang clothing and looks much nicer.

  • Put some of the larger items out near the street, to catch the eyes of those who are driving by. You will be surprised at how many people will stop to look, even though they are not interested in the dining room furniture.

  • Have a garden? Consider selling flowers and produce from your garden...you'd be suprise on how well these items sell!
