Becoming a top seller on Bazaara can help you increase your following and engagement on the app, therefore leading to higher sales! Wondering how you can make this a reality for you and your Closet on Bazaara? Don’t worry – there are many ways to help you earn a position as a top seller, and we’ve outlined them below for you.
Take Great Pictures to Show Off your Items
Take great pictures and videos of your item that really shows off the true beauty of each item. Doing so will lead to higher interaction with potential buyers and will help you sell your item quicker. Don’t be afraid to style your outfits to show the buyers how they could style an item.
Communicate with Potential Buyers and Users
Communicate with other users often! Always communicate with potential buyers through comments on listings to see if they have any questions and to answer any questions. Even if a user ‘Likes’ one of your listings, feel free to say Hello in a comment! You can also communicate with the buyer in the comments about the shipping status. Responding to comments will help you sell your item quickly. But, don’t spam or self-promote on other user’s listings in the comments – doing so could lead to a permanent block on your account.
Upload a Variety of Preloved Items
Add a variety of items to your closet! The more items you have listed, the more users will follow your Closet. You can always decline any purchase request you receive on any of your items if you change your mind (but try not to do this too often).
Engage with Other Users
Search, follow, like and comment on other user’s Closet’s and listings. Doing so will help build a community of like-minded users around you, and spreading the ‘likes’ will enable you to get some in return – leading to more views on your items.
Double Check your Address and Phone Number
Make sure your address and phone number is up to date in your Bazaara profile. This is how the courier will contact you to schedule pick up and where the courier will come pick up the package. If your address is not correct and the shipment is delayed, it could lead to you receiving a lower rating from the buyer or a cancelled order.
Categorize your Listings Properly
Ensure your categorizations on your items are correct and thorough. The better you categorize your item, the easier it will be for the perfect buyer to find it! For example, if you are selling a small blue and white striped maxi dress, don’t only categorize it as a blue dress, categorize it as a small maxi dress, that is both blue and white.
Write a Thorough Listing Description
Be thorough in your listing descriptions so that buyers know what the item looks like, how it wears, its fabric/materials, if there are any defects or damages, and more. If you don’t describe your item properly, it could lead to the buyer rejecting the item and it being returned or a low rating.
Sell Clean and Undamaged Items
Ensure the items you are selling are thoroughly cleaned and not damaged before packaging for delivery (unless the damage is stated in the listing). If your item is damaged, do not try to cover it up in the pictures and ensure it is stated in the description. This will lead to a bad experience for the buyer and they will rate you poorly. We have a list of partners who use eco-friendly products and can help dry-clean and repair your clothing:
Prepare your Items for Shipment
And finally, when packing your item for shipment, try to pack it neatly into a clean box or gift bag. This will lead to a higher rating! Bonus points if you send a thank you note with your package – buyers will love to see a personal touch to the packaging of their item. Don’t accept a purchase or offer if you are not ready to ship your item. The courier will pick up your item within the next day, so if you do accept a purchase offer, ensure that your item is ready for pickup by the time the courier arrives at your location. But, don’t wait too long to accept a purchase as this could lead to a cancelled order.
If you follow all of the tips outlined above, this will lead to higher interactions, engagement and ratings for you and your profile as a seller on Bazaara, ultimately leading to higher sales and profits. Always remember – a first-time customer could lead to a long-term customer. Happy selling!
