15x How to become the most popular market vendor at the flea market
Are the kilos of clothes ready? Interior must-haves that turned out not to be such a must or other purchases you'd rather not talk about anymore? King's Day is the perfect time to tidy up your house while making some money. And where you might think that reserving a stall in the center or getting up extra early for the best spot to roll out your blanket is the only preparation needed, you couldn't be more wrong. There is so much more to becoming the best market seller at the free market. Bet that the bargain hunters will be lining up tomorrow to score something from you?
Tablecloth
Don't have a stall at your disposal? Bring a folding table or possibly a few cardboard boxes to create elevation. You'll see that all items on the table attract attention super easily, even more than all the blankets and stuff on the ground.
With two
Nothing is as uninviting as selling alone all day. Oh, and you can barely go to the bathroom, grab a coffee, or properly admire that cute bag on the right all day.
Who is the fairest of them all?
Of course, you want to see how something looks. Have you ever shopped for something without looking in the mirror? A must, and preferably a standing variant.
Chalk
Create attention with sidewalk chalk around your sales spot. Write a cozy welcome quote or buy sidewalk chalk, paper, and flags at Hema and start playing with prices to make extra statements with your offers.
Letter party
A lightbox or letter board not only looks cool, but you can also place the best offers of the day on it and easily change them at any time of the day.
Tighten it up
Bring sturdy rope (and if necessary, two boards or sticks) to stretch a line. You can't present those flowy dresses and skinny jeans better than hanging them, right?
Bag included?
Buy a pack of mini trash bags at the supermarket. Nothing is as nice as getting a bag with your purchase.
Power bank
Bring an external charger. You don't have time to plug your phone in somewhere.
Collect all coins
Make sure you have enough change. Flip that piggy bank.
Hey DJ
Bring a Bluetooth speaker or a small radio. It not only provides a cozy background music while selling, but it also attracts customers.
Let it hang
Hangers: you can never bring enough. For a clothing rack, a self-stretched rope, along the edge of the table, the side of your stall, or maybe even the stone wall behind you.
Shine bright
Bring a battery-operated light string. It looks cool and cozy, and you can also highlight some eye-catchers from your stand.
Styling
I know, I know: your alarm went off early and the weather isn't necessarily nice, but try not to dress in a too-pajama-like look. Comfy can also be cool. Go for a cool suit in a bright color or a fun color on your lips. Nothing is as nice as buying second-hand clothes from a cool girl, right?
Have you worn the look you're selling in a photo? Gather the looks on Instagram and try to trigger people extra to come by with a story on Stories or show interested parties your styling skills. Bet they'll see the item completely in their mind right away?
Rain dance
Lots of rain predicted? Bring an umbrella. Preferably as big as possible or several small ones in bright colors. You can style the whole thing extra cozy with flags, lights, and clothing hangers with cheerful prints for the perfect good vibes only feeling.
