Use a photo in your ad. |
| |
| |
We can't stress enough the importance a quality photo of your
vehicle has on the
buyer. Ads with photos have 3 times the success of those without.

2.
Use memorable & appealing comments. |
| |
| |
When car shopping, buyers view many ads and are likely to
remember the ads that speak to them and appeal to their lifestyle.
Ex: (Minivans/wagons,
etc. - Great family car!)
(Sedans -
Gas mileage great for commuters!)
(Sports Cars
- A must for driving enthusiasts!) |

3.
Competitive Price & Or Best Offer (OBO) |
| |
| |
Pricing your vehicle competitively is a must. Check prices
of similar vehicles on the site and visit the sites below
to find the book value of your car. This is what your vehicle
is competing against.
Kelley Blue Book
(kbb.com)
Edmunds (edmunds.com)
OBO - may incline buyers to call even if they are not
pleased with the price. You then have the chance to explain
the reason for this price and decide whether or not you would
like to negotiate. $100 could be the difference between selling
your car or keeping it. |

Maintenance Records |

It is critical to keep records of all service and repairs
performed on your vehicle. Maintenance records give the buyer
proof and confidence of the vehicle's maintenance history.
This should include new tires, oil changes, engine repairs,
etc.
