For Sellers: How to Convince Customers to Buy Your Products?

Selling your products online is the perfect way to save time and make easy money, especially with the wave of online shopping taking over in Kuwait. In this article, we will give you the 4 magic tips to make your product stand out among a sea of other listings on 4Sale.

1. Describe Your Product Well

The first thing you need to do is build the perfect bridge between your listing and potential customers. This means that you need to place your product in the right category, and give it a clear and concise name.

The name is not enough for customers to trust your product, so you need to write a very clear description free of typos and with correct grammar. Your description needs to contain all the necessary information detailing the specifications of your product, its price, how to use it and its condition.

Pro tip: Keep the details of your product to the description box and don’t include it in the product pictures.

2. Take the Perfect Images

The first thing that catches the customer’s eye is the pictures of your product, so it’s important to take appealing images that showcase its best features. Don’t use random pictures from the internet because it lowers your credibility. Customers are more likely to fear missing out on buying your product if they see real pictures.

Make sure your product is cleaned well and fixed if there are any flaws in it to make it appealing to a customer’s eyes. It’s vital to take pictures from multiple angles so the customer can be sure going forward with the purchase and you have to make sure the background is mono-colored and clear.

Finally, if you’re going to use a watermark, make sure it doesn’t take too much space.

3. Communicate with Customers Clearly

The key point of selling your product is your availability for interested buyers. When you’re listing an item, make sure you put a working and available number for the customer to reach you on. Once your listing is live, monitor your phone to answer potential customers promptly because it shows them that they can trust you.

Try to keep an open mind with your customers. Answer their questions even if the answer they’re seeking is already in the description; customers are more likely to buy from you if you patiently talk them through the purchase.

Price negotiations are always a hassle if you’re a seller, but if you keep that in mind during the pricing process, you can win loyal customers if you’re a repeat seller or you can make the deal quicker if you’re just selling your product once.

4. Put the Right Price for Your Product

4Sale is a hub for everyone with something to sell. Whether you’re a one-time seller or you have a stockpile of products that 4Sale helps you sell a percentage of, these pricing tips can help you go a long way.

For one-time sellers:

• Take a look through the market of your product and get the rough range for your product’s price across different channels.
• Keep in mind that customers could negotiate the price so you don’t lose out too much after the negotiation.
• Be honest about your product’s condition and answer any questions the customer may have.
• Based on the product conditions, be clear about the reasoning behind the price.
• Before you negotiate, try to ensure you’re speaking to a serious buyer so you don’t waste a lot of time. Serious buyers are typically interested in every small detail.

For business owners:

• Make sure your pricing is within the normal range for the product and be competitive if you can afford to.
• Engage potential buyers with offers, like giving them discounts if they buy multiple products or shipping the product for free if the price is non-negotiable.
• Ensure your available payment channels are available and easy to reach for customers, whether you require payment in cash or through Knet.
