Tips to make an ad to sell items?

If i had to choose between the two programs, I would always use Word for this.\nI am assuming that If you have access to Word & Excel then you would also have access to Powerpoint. If this is the case, then use Powerpoint. It allows more flexability in the placing of seperate pictures and text boxes then Word or Excel. \nPowerpoint is designed for presentations, but I have found that it is a great tool for doing posters and business cards, when I dont have access to Publisher or a similar program. It is easy to use and to manipulate items.\n\nAs far as tips to make the ad, it depends on what you are selling.\nIf its your old car or dishwasher, for example, a simple picture, a headline and info text is all you need eg\n\n                    TITLE FOR THING FOR SALE!!\n\n         ------------------\n         ------------------             2 years old\n         ------------------             $49.00 ono\n         ------------------             Call 01234 56789\n         ------------------             \n\n\nIf you are not trying to sell second hand items (garage sale style), but are selling for a business, the remember the 2 S's                              \n\n                                          Sexy Sells!\n\n\nMake it look good. \nPhotos MUST be of the best quality\nProof read and spell check\nColour coordinate\n\n\nKeep it SIMPLE!!\nAdds work best when they are simple and eye catching. Have small print if you need it, but the large print should ONLY tell the main facts, ie what it is, basic description, where to buy etc\nsmall print should be everything else, company info, disclaimer etc\n\nFinally whichever style of add you use, make it stand out. This can be done in one of three ways\n\n1) border art (simple is best, it should attract the eye, to look at the ad, and not be the only reason that you are looking)\n2) coloured paper (either plain, or simple paterned)\n3) coloured text\n\nTo advertise on the cheap, I would advise you to use plain YELLOW paper, as this is the most eye catching colour and will be noticed by more people.

Well, if you are trying to do something like this, use a large bulletin board.  Ebay will charge you to post an item and if this is something you want to do for awhile, it may not be worth your while to repeatedly post it.  Try making a great homepage with your affiliate program.  Then use Google to promote it.

I sell alot on ebay. I've found that to be successful, you must have good photos, good descriptions, a good product, and good service. Even if it means you have to put out a little money up front before you start to make money. Also make sure  to use as many describing  or cross referencing words in the title as possible.

You can either sell a tangible product online (such as knitting scarves and selling them online, ebay, etc) or by running a popular site and putting ads on it.  Yahoo, MSN, and Google all have ad programs, so if you can write, try starting a blog and putting ads on it.

several ways\n\n1) find a warehouse where you can buy items such as ipods in bulk for a low price (20gb ipod can be bought for less than $100 each if you buy them in bulk) then sell them on ebay\n\n2) create a website, something you are interested in, and if it has a lot of good content you can earn money though advertisements (google adsense, yahoo publisher, clicksor)\n\n3) affiliation programs, some places give you an affiliate link when you sign up, and when people use your link to buy something or sign up, you get a small percentage of their order as a reward
