Always conduct good research about the trend and likes and dislikes about the people of the country you sell your products in. Do thorough research on the psychology and preferences of your prospective customers. This will help you in analyzing what products to sell in which country, festivals and occasions celebrated by them and the economic and social structure of the people.
Every marketplace has a search engine that easily understands and fetches relevant search result for the queries fed by the customers and the basic idea that it works on is the keywords. As a seller, you must optimize the SEO and play with keywords in the product description; product title or other ad copies that you make to attract customers.
These keywords help prospective buyers to reach your products as soon as it appears in the first result page of Fruugo.
What is a Keyword?
Keywords are those words that are generally fed by people on a search engine like Google or Marketplace search engines. These are the terms that you must be using in your product description, product title or ad copy that you create for marketing on other platforms.

Make your product description as detailed as possible. Do not leave any room for the prospective buyers to have any doubt related to your product. Do not forget to mention the dimensions, fabric, colors, and instructions to use the product.
You can easily notice how every possible query asked by a customer is covered in the description, right from dimension, weight, and material. Along with the product description, the delivery and return policy are also mentioned. This plays a very important role in international shipping. A customer must be aware of the delivery and return policy to avoid any confusion.
Visuals are the most significant and appealing part of your product description. Customers always intend to take a look at the product with as many angles as possible. Try to invest in visuals and use infographics to make it detailed. The bottom line is to make the visuals self-explanatory.
Make navigation for a product easy and easily searchable. Try to mention the categories at leaf level so that no other subcategory can be added. A leaf level category makes the product search very specific and relevant.
Offers and discounts play a very major role in attracting buyers. Low price and discounts seem to be a steal deal for the customers. You can also mention limited additions or limited stock available so as to create urgency amongst the buyers.
Pitch your products with competitive prices. Give them no reason to look away from your products just because of a high product price. Emerging European marketplaces like Fruugo have a set margin for the minimum and maximum prices that you as a seller should restrict to.
All the T-shirts have tough competition in price. The chances are that the customer would go with one with the minimum price.
Put extra efforts on listing occasional and festive products so that your products are in high demand and you don’t miss out the prospective crowd online.

After getting convinced with the product images and price, the actual decision making factor will be the reviews by your customers. The most genuine reason why a customer would like to order from your Fruugo store is that you have proved through your reviews that you can make your customers happy and satisfied.
PROTIP – Communicate with your customers when they have a query or complaint. Ask about their experience shopping with you. Send a personal email and thank them also you can mail them whenever you upload a new product. Keeping taking follow-up.
