let's list on facebook marketplace 2022
step by step
hey everyone how's it going it's jewel
talentino here from essatino media and
on this channel we show you how to
create profitable content let me show
you how i do my listings so this method
is going to be done on facebook
marketplace with your desktop computer
laptop so what are we going to be
selling today
it's this thing it is a
lenovo
thinkpad
pen pro
basically one of those writing pens
for your laptop first thing you want to
do is take really good pictures it
starts in the pictures don't be the
person that does the blurry photos the
person that takes photos with no light
or the person that does completely wrong
angles when you put a little bit of
attention into the photos it helps
greatly in actually selling the product
here's a little clip of me taking photos
and what the photos actually look like
[Music]
[Music]
[Applause]
that whole thing there literally took me
two minutes if you have a smartphone you
can take good photos notice how i went
really close up to the product i used
portrait mode on iphone that
automatically makes the photo look good
and there was a window of light if you
don't have a window grab a lamp a light
source and give the product a little
more light when you take good photos you
become more trusting on facebook
marketplace which helps makes the sale
if you look scammy and untrustworthy
people aren't going to want to message
you and do the transaction do the deal
so let's head on to facebook here right
now this is the home page home feed of
my facebook profile there's two places
to get to the marketplace they're always
changing it they're always switching it
around so if in the future you're
watching this tutorial and you're like
hey the button's not exactly there
it's there you just need to search
around for it they move things all the
time so currently in 2022 the two places
are up here
in the middle of the page
and on the left hand side here where it
says marketplace i'm going to click the
middle button right here every time i do
these tutorial videos there's always
like weird stuff that pops up in today's
pics in vancouver there's
durian and jackfruit okay so to create a
new listing
click on create new listing next we're
gonna go for item for sale all right so
before you get into this part you want
to have the information on your product
ready so this right here is the lenovo
thinkpad pen pro that i'm wanting to
sell on facebook marketplace
here on this site i'm gonna find all the
information about the pen right when you
can add details to your product it's
gonna help the customer make a better
decision they won't have to message you
asking you questions because you'll have
it in there in the listing and again
it'll make you look more professional
i'm gonna head back to the marketplace
and we're gonna start filling in the
details you saw that i just took really
cool photos i'm gonna load those up
click on add photos
here they are click open
now it does matter which photo is the
first photo because that's your best
foot forward right you don't want to put
the crappiest photo first so this photo
in my opinion is the best photo because
it's featuring the pen
and then the next photo
is done strategically it's with all the
accessories and then the next photo
after that is a close-up of the actual
pen tip because that would be important
for someone when they're buying this
this is a pen for their laptop and the
last
is the box i would not have this be the
first photo because you don't know
what's in there and you'll notice that i
took the photo on a very vibrant
background so if this this pen is black
i wouldn't put a black background or a
very dark background otherwise you
wouldn't be able to see the pen in great
detail so next let's write the title of
this item so if we go back to the site
this is the lenovo thinkpad pen pro so
i'm actually going to highlight that and
i'm going to paste this in the title and
i'm going to put some other keywords as
well like
laptop drawing
stylus
so i'm going to add those three words
next is the price so people always have
difficulty deciding the price at the end
of the day you want to price it to
something that you're going to feel
comfortable but at the same time being
fair in the market so you can see that
on the lenovo website this is 64.99
so i wouldn't be pricing this at 70 80.
and for me
honestly i'd be happy with 50 bucks for
this thing so i'm gonna put in
50. all right let's scroll down here and
now it's the category so i'm gonna go
with electronics and computers next here
is the condition
this is pretty much brand new the box
has been opened but the item hasn't
actually been used next is the
description i do have a
template that i use for all my facebook
marketplace descriptions i state the
price up again
and i've put an emoji of a laptop
anything you can do to stand out is
going to be in your favor next i'm
stating again the state of the product
so it is brand new but the box has been
opened next i state a line about it
making a great birthday gift i always
put it into
the customer's mind that
maybe there is someone's birthday coming
up right maybe they didn't think of that
now that i've got the main part for the
description i'm gonna add some stuff
some specs about the item so i'm gonna
come here right now i'm gonna highlight
everything so i'm gonna paste it in i'm
gonna remove this part i'm gonna leave
these points here comes with the battery
eraser functionality fast and accurate
input then in lightweight design next i
put locations for pickup and here i
state another line pickup only please it
just works best with my schedule and if
the person really wants it they're going
to have to come and pick it up and then
last line here
serious inquiries only i don't want
people messaging me just for the sake of
messaging me i only want people to
message me if they're actually
interested next year availability i only
have one of these so i'm going to list
it as a single item the brand is lenovo
product tags so you can add more tags to
this laptop
pen
stylus
stylus pen
lenovo
pad
so as we scroll down here you wanna put
in your location and this is asking this
feature right here boost after listing
i'm gonna leave that off for now that is
a paid feature that i have done before
and i do use it
if it's worth it to use so i do have a
tutorial on that down in the description
below on when to actually use the boost
feature because you don't want to boost
an item if it's like ten dollars and
you're paying five dollars to boost it
and then hear this feature hide from
friends
this listing will be hidden from your
facebook friends but be but will be
visible to other people on facebook
i'm personally okay with my friends
seeing what i'm selling because if
anything it's going to create
credibility and if they know me and they
like me
and they trust me and i'm selling this
lenovo pen the transaction happens
faster and quicker and i've actually had
past friends buy stuff from me and
there's no like negotiation or anything
it's honestly like a cool quick meet up
and catch up the trust is already there
so in my opinion i actually am okay with
it alright so now click next now you can
list this in the marketplace only or you
can list it in other selling groups
personally i only want the marketplace i
don't prefer to list in the other
facebook selling groups just cause
things can get out of hand there people
make comments people are just trying to
be funny in those groups last thing here
we publish all right and there you go so
now we hope that it sells if it doesn't
there are different strategies that i do
change the title
boost it delete and re-list i'll be
creating tutorials on all this stuff if
you found this tutorial helpful
please let me know by smashing the
thumbs up button that would be greatly
appreciated it lets me know that you
appreciate my time to make this tutorial
for you thank you so much for watching
and i'll see you in the next video
