Halloween in 2023 happens on October 31. In late August families, children and adults start thinking about fall. Thoughts of orange leaves, crisp apples and outdoor adventures lead to thoughts of Halloween. If you have Halloween costumes for sale in your Ebay store, now is the time to promote them.
How to Promote an Item on Ebay:
On the Phone App-
Scroll to the bottom of the listing. The last option in the listing reads “Sell it faster.”
Under Sell it Faster is a bold statement that reads “Promoted Listings Standard.” In this section simply input the Ad rate you wish to use. The rate will become live when you list a new item or when you revise an existing active listing.
On the Ebay Site-
Scroll to the bottom of the listing and the very last row has a statement that reads “Promote your listings to increase the likelihood of a sale by helping your items be seen by millions of active buyers.” In this section simply input the Ad rate you wish to use. The rate will become live when you list a new item or when you revise an existing active listing.
The late summer season is the time to promote Halloween items. Promoting an item puts it at the top of the search. For example, this Freddy Krueger Adult Halloween Costume Nightmare On Elm Street Shirt Mask XL was found 119th in a standard search. After promoting this item at ten percent, it is coming up 2nd in a standard search. Combining the search season for Halloween items and the promoted listing feature on Ebay will result in greater visibility and a greater chance of having an item sell.
Some other examples of Halloween items that are taking advantage of promoted listings are:
Pumpkin Carving Kit
Inflatable Witch Decorations for the Lawn
