So, I probably should have titled this “convincing people to look at your listing” but that probably wouldn’t have gotten you to look here. But I promise I did it to prove a point.
In the explanation of your product the there are two areas “title” and the “description”
The title of the listing or product heading is really important, it separates your from the rest and has to do so in 50 letters or less. If it’s new write “new” if it’s used you might not want to write anything about that in the title at all because it sounds too negative. You have little space to grab some ones attention and get them to look at your product use it well and as a hint look at how other people abbreviate things and follow suit.
In regards to the description, be honest. You can say anything you want in the description as long as its short and sweet but most importantly always be truthful. Were not in the business of cheating or misleading people out of their money are we? NO….. But it’s possible to be too honest. Try not to be foolish about what you say, you still want customers and it’s all in the wording. Instead of “used” say “pre owned” instead of “old” say “vintage” but don’t lie about the facts you’ll be better off and you’ll sell more and you’ll even had a few repeat customers.
