I am having a yardsale and.............?

Question

I am having a yardsale this saturday and I have made 30 posters plus printed out like 20-50 flyers..Is this too much advertising?

Answer 1

That should be fine unless you are located way off the beaten path. Just make sure you are ready at day break as the people get out early!

Answer 2

not at all. these posters need to be made with large thick letters so easily seen from distance. place them on pathways to major dept. stores , at churches , anywhere there is a lot of traffic. be set up 1 hour before start time. most people flood these sales very early looking for bargans. if any antiques for sale , make note of this on posters. also place at major intersections, with red lights, let people be able to take notice.place notices on bullitinboards in laundermats etc. try get couple neighbors to join you , have a massive sale. have about 40 singles and lots of 5,s / as people will pay with 20.00 bills.you,ll run out of small cash quick./good luck try to set up a grill sale hot dogs and cold beer, you,ll make twice the money

Answer 3

You can never advertise too much.  Be sure the posters are readable to drivers; I did test drives by mine and found I had to re-do them.  Big letters, simple, basic information:

                  "YARD SALE

                          7-26              

                  222 ROYSTON ST"  plus a humongous arrow

Any more info than that and drivers will not be able to get it all.

Answer 4

The more posters the better.  Just remember to collect them all when your yard sale is finished.  So many people leave them on posts in the street and it looks dreadful.

Good luck with your yard sale.

Edit:  Legally you cannot sell beer at a yard sale.  You need a licence to sell beer, otherwise you can get in trouble with the law.

Answer 5

The more the marrieir when advertising
