0:00 - Introduction to Facebook Marketplace Tips and Tricks to Sell More

0:45 - Recap

What makes a good Facebook Marketplace listing?

A keyword optimized title - this is where you want to include things like the brand or the model of the thing you're selling, the color, the condition or anything relevant that will catch the potential buyers eye as they are skimming through all of the Facebook Marketplace results.

Price - Typically I price things competitively a little bit lower than the average in the market. That way I know that my item will more likely sell a little faster than everybody else's.

High quality photos - It needs to be super clear for your potential buyer what exactly they're going to be buying when they check out your listing.

Benefits to the buyer - Too many people talk about the specific features that the item that they're selling has, but they don't write about it from the lens of the buyer.

Percentage savings - percentage savings that somebody stands to save by buying your item

Preferred payment method - Venmo, cash, etc.

Preferred pickup days and times
