Whether you are selling off your old furniture to make room for new, or you operate one of the biggest furniture chains in your area, a furniture sale is only as good as the advertising that entices prospective buyers to your store/location. Oddly, effective methods do not differ tremendously based upon the size of the store. Of course, the larger the furniture sale, the bigger and more expensive the marketing will be, but all furniture outlets need the same thing.
Maybe you’re a big local furniture store needing to liquidate surplus to make room for new stock, or you’re a part of a chain and you’ve gotten a mandate to sell off the “old” stock, you both have the same problem. As a matter of fact, even if you’re a homeowner who just redecorated their dining room has old furniture too nice to throw away that you want to sell; you have the same problem as the big stores, but probably a much smaller budget. Each of you needs customers who are ready to buy.
In a rocky economy, you can spend your entire ad budget on television, or a print campaign. Try thinking smaller and target specific. Pop up banner ads on local television news websites or weather sites can reach customers in your area. Make your ad colorful and emphasize the savings. Small local paper ads and ads in local on-line open-market sites such as “Craigslist”, etc. can be as effective for the homeowner as a big store.
Signage in the area of the sale alerts people in that neighborhood and those driving through that it’s there. Make your furniture sale advertising heavy on the savings and keep the fine print to a minimum. The idea is to get them to your site. Then, you can do the rest. No matter how small or large your advertising budget, it is not used effectively if it doesn’t bring customers to your location.
