These sites are essentially bulletin boards, but you still need to understand how to work with them. Basically, such servers gather a large number of sellers in one place, where everyone can sell whatever they want. You get a place, open a virtual store and then sell your goods, advertising and promoting them in various ways.
Probably the most popular online trading platform is Etsy. Here you can find handmade goods, antiques, various paintings, and creative materials. The server allows you to place up to 40 items for free, but you will have to pay a tax on each one if the item is purchased.
In Russia, the analogue of this platform is "Masters Fair". Here you will place three products for free.
An advertisement to attract band database attention on these platforms can significantly increase your sales. However, remember that simply registering will not solve all the problems and will not bring profit. In order for such online platforms to bring good money, you must invest in advertising on the site to promote products and popularize them. You will have to take photos, make beautiful cards, enter keys.
Social media
Advertisements on the VKontakte (VK) network can be published via the "Products" button. Moreover, you don't have to be a community administrator to do this; this function is also available to regular users who want to sell something. Publication is completely free for everyone.
Social Media Ads
However, posting an ad alone will not help you sell your products, so we also recommend running a community. Organize a group on VK, post photos of your products, hold contests, ask people to post reviews. Do everything so that users learn as much as possible about your business!
Working with partners
There are cases when online advertisements are placed for free. To use such a service, find partners who are interested in both your products and their own promotion. Mutual advertising is called barter.
For example, you are engaged in the production of themed handmade candles, and in your city there is a chain of anti-cafes with a similar theme. You can conclude an agreement under which you will advertise each other, hold joint promotions, organize contests, give discounts. This option gives advantages to both parties, helping to attract a new audience with similar interests.
