Feeling overwhelmed by clutter? A yard sale can be the perfect solution. Here are five expert strategies to help you make more money and ensure everything goes smoothly. Avoid Pricing Everything Instead of pricing each item individually, group similar items together and set a single price, or use color-coded stickers to simplify bulk pricing. Encourage Lingering Set out refreshments like lemonade or cookies to encourage customers to stay longer, increasing the chances they'll find more items to purchase. Download Venmo or Square Since many people no longer carry cash, make sure you can accept mobile payments like Venmo or Square to process credit and debit card transactions. Hire a Sitter Send your children off to a relative or sitter so you can focus on the sale without dealing with distractions or emotional attachment to items. Have a Post-Sale Plan Arrange for a charity pickup or list unsold items online so you don’t have to worry about leftover goods after the sale ends.
