Do you have some items lying around that you would like to sell? Then this weekend is the perfect time to do that. This is how you will undoubtedly sell all your things during the flea market on King’s Day.
Make a good selection of merchandise
Before you can go to the flea market, you obviously need to have things to sell. Make a selection of items that still look good and that people would like to buy. Clothes full of holes or books with missing pages may not be suitable. Of course you want your customers to leave satisfied. So make sure you have attractive merchandise. We understand that you prefer to sell some things so that you can earn extra money, but some things are better off just thrown away.
Be realistic with your prices
You don’t go to a flea market to spend a fortune. The prices at a flea market on King’s Day are often quite low. So be realistic with your prices. People will probably be put off if your prices are too high and you will sell a lot less as a result. Lower prices will probably ultimately lead to higher profits. Items for which you would like to charge more are better off selling online.
Choose a favorable spot on the market
The next step is to claim a place in the market. We recommend sitting in a place where many people pass by. Think of close to the entrance or at a popular meeting point. Ultimately, it is often difficult enough to find a spot, but if you have a choice, it is certainly good to take advantage of it.
Attract attention
During the market it is important to attract enough attention to your stall. You can do this through music, decorations, a sign or even snacks. You can also occasionally shout out what you are selling like a real market vendor. Make sure your stall is unmissable.
Marketing tricks also work at the flea market
In the marketing world, there are a lot of tricks that can be used to attract customers. You can also do this at a flea market. For example, create a board where you write down special deals that you offer. You can also create a sense of scarcity by writing down that you only have a few items left. They have to be quick! You can also make visiting your stall more attractive through games. For example, go for a grab bag!
