Clear them out and clean up

How consignment, resale, and thrift shops clear out and clean up!

A Too Good to be Threw Product for the Professional Resaler

So, you’ve had your seasonal clearance sale and you still have things left over, even though you slashed prices by 75 or 90%. What do you do with the remainders? You clear them out…and if you’re wise, you clean up— in a money sense— at the same time. Just imagine what you could do with the extra income. You could kick-start the oncoming season for greater sales and bigger profit margins. You could donate more dollars to your charity if you are a not-for-profit shop, or you could gain good will and word-of-mouth from such an event. Or you could simply sock the excess away to cover the inevitable slow times.

Bag sales, dollar racks, and BOGO Deals can be fun for you, fun for your customers, and a great way to get customers in to your shop…customers who may well have never visited before. They can also serve to clear out your back room.

These sales can serve in other ways, besides simply clearing up the dregs of a past season…
