Advertise Your NJ Yard Sale for Only $5

  You have made the decision. Selected the items. Set prices, and picked a date. You are going to have a Yard Sale. Your goal may be to just get rid of some clutter, make some extra money, or both. The next step is usually to post some signs up around your neighborhood, and hope some people show up.
  The biggest problem with this is unless you live on or near a well-traveled road the only people who will know about your Yard Sale will be your neighbors. Most likely, your neighbors probably have much of the same stuff you do, and you won't really generate any money.
  Don't kid yourself there is real money to be made in Yard Sales. I personally know of a woman who makes at least $200 each month on her Yard Sales. That's an extra $2400 a year selling what she considers clutter or junk. However, she does live on a very busy street.
  There are what I call "professional yard sale buyers", and also people who make yard sales their hobby. These are the people you want to reach, and chances are they won't be seeing your signs you put up around the neighborhood. They do however check blogs like this one, NJ YARD SALE SEARCH.
  The blog is relatively new, but gaining more and more viewers every week. Every Yard Sale that is posted is then individually advertised on both Facebook and Twitter. This can bring you the type of buyers you are looking for, and for a limited time I am offering the chance to advertise your Yard Sale here for only $5.
  I will not only list the address of your sale, but also the types of items you are selling. This is really important as it draws true buyers searching for what you're selling.
  At only $5, this is a true bargain, afterall, you will probably spend more on the signs you post on the telephone poles in your neighborhood, and certainly much more to run an ad in the newspaper.
  If you would like to post an ad on NJ Yard Sale Search send me an email at ellsworthaboyce@yahoo.com with the date, item list, address, and time of sale. I will then give you your choice of payment methods, including check or PayPal.
 This is a limited time offer, and it's only $5. But that $5 could be the difference between making $20 for sitting out in the sun all day, or making $200.
