What is Facebook Marketplace

As we anticipated earlier, it is a online market where the various users registered on the social network can buy and sell. The operation is very similar to that of Subito.com.

Going to the Marketplace, you can scroll through the various offers within our area, or put a product on sale. Facebook gives us the possibility to filter the search and the catalog according to the price, the category and the radius of the area in which we are located. Each ad has a photo, a category, a title, a description and, of course, a price.

How to sell on Facebook Marketplace

Selling an item on the Facebook Marketplace is really simple. In a few simple steps it is possible to insert an advertisement complete with description and photos.

1. Let's join the Facebook Marketplace;
2. We click on the button + Sell something;
3. At this point a new window will open;
4. We insert the title, the price, the city, a description and select a category;
5. We insert some photos to facilitate the viewing by users;
6. Finally, we click on Public.

Once this is done, our ad will be put up for sale and, in a few minutes, it will be visible to all users interested in a purchase in our area.

We also remind you that it is not possible to sell as a company on the Facebook Marketplace, as the appropriate "showcase" functions are already present in the home of the social network.

How to give visibility to the products on sale

Now let's see how to give more visibility to our products on sale. There are some tips and tricks to take that will help spark more interest from users.

• Title: it is advisable to enter a title endearing, but at the same time useful. For example, it is good to repeat the city ​​name within the title.
• Description: in this section it is good to insert some keyword concerning the item offered for sale.
• Gallery: Obviously it is preferable to insert photos with high quality than grainy photos.
• Price: it is not necessary to exaggerate with the price. It is essential to enter a competitive price, in order to entice the customer to buy their product.
