Creative Invitations for your Garage Sale

There are many ways on how you can profit from your garage sale. You can use creative invitations to inform and invite targeted customers to your garage sales. These creative invitations can set the tone and determine the success of your garage sale. Here are some ways on how to create and write your garage sale invitation.

1. Decide on what theme you would like to use for your garage sale. You may have the option of handwriting the invitations if you intend to save money. You may also create printed invitations that you can post in any commercial establishment in your community.

2. Make the theme of the invitations more convincing and attracting to your customers. You may choose to include a preview of the items that you will sell. In this way, customers will have an idea on what to buy when they visit your garage sale.

3. You should decide on what type of paper or card you will order for your invitations. Buy supplies a little more than what you have estimated. There could be guests that you didn't expect to drop by.

4. Make sure that the content of your invitation is a little business related since you are selling your personal items. You may include the prices of the items and the place where you have bought the products.

5. To add more appeal on your invitations, you may also include on your invitation that there are free tokens given if they buy items at your garage sale. You may also provide discounts for the customers who have purchased two or more items.

6. You can mail the invitations to special friends who are interested in buying your things. Make sure that you indicate the date the garage sale will be held. It is recommended that you schedule it on a weekend when more people have the time to drop by.

7. Distribute your invitations 3 weeks before the event. In this way, you can have enough time to prepare and set up your garage sale.

Don't forget to include your name and the address of your house. Invitations should be the key factors for the success of your garage sale. Since it isn't a formal event, you can also improvise on the invitations you make. Find some old papers on your drawer and design on your own.

What are high selling items to sell in a garage sale?

I'm having a garage sale next week and need some ideas on what to sell.
Thanks
no this was the recommended category- i have no idea what to put it in.

Anything sells good as long as you have yard sale prices. Kitchen items sell good for me. Clothes sell best when I sell them so many pieces for a set price no matter what pieces they pick. Jewelry sells good if you display it nicely. Go through closets, bathroom cabinets and under beds. You may even find stuff in your attic. Toiletries from your bathroom sell best when bagged in ziploc bags as sets.

Okay, we all know that women stop at yard sales. How do we draw in the male customers? Easy!! Make a "Man" table and display it in the front where it can easily be seen from the road. Put things on it like tools, tackle boxes, ice chest, fishing stuff, car stuff, golf stuff, video games (real good one!), old radios, outside tools or gardening related stuff and anything else that draws the interest of men. I do this at my sales and a lot of men stop just to look at the man table. I also advertise it on a local yard sale site. Search the internet to see if you have a local yard sale site. Rather you advertise on the internet or in the newspaper, make sure you include that there will be a man table just for the guys.

Don't forget to have an ice chest of cold drinks to sell. Also use fans aimed at the loot to keep everyone cool. The more comfortable your customers are the longer they will stay. Display everything as nicely as possible so that it doesn't look like junk from the road, or up close. Use sheets for table clothes and price everything. There is nothing more intimidating than to go to a yard sale and have to ask what everything costs. It tends to make your customers uncomfortable and obligated to buy something. Last but not least, don't forget bags, newspaper and boxes for packing up the purchases. Good Luck!

Note: This is not joke, I made $1500.00 at my last yard sale. It ran from Friday to Sunday. Sunday was slow but it was worth it.
