It’s of course the main seller strategy and therefore has to be asflaterring as possible and maintain the harmony of the catalogue atthe same time:

- A minimum of 2 different pictures are required for each item

- The 1st picture, the one we get to see on the catalogue has toclearly present the item in its entirety. It has to be taken frontally(and be clear and distinct). The product must be free of any heap(nothing on, nothing inside and eventual doors must be closed)

- The picture for set items has to show the whole set to clarify thekind of proposal made to the buyer

- Be careful with the lighting when you take a picture; day light anda clear background will better testify and enhance colors while anartificial light (like a flash) will corrupt the reality of the product

The perfect advert exists. Hereby some details you should bethinking at when you create one.

- Mention the dimensions for rugs and mirrors in the title.Every buyer looks for a certain size of product accordingto the space he has available. Give him a hand to find therare gem!

- Never put capital letters in the title or in the description.- Mention the batch numbers under «quantity» and not the

pieces by set.- Add the delivery options, this will increase your chance of

selling.- If your product doesn’t have a category it simply means

that we don’t accept it on the website.
