Messaging buyers -

So you are a seller and you are not sure how to approach a buyer - you maybe all new to the fetish scene or you may just be trying out a different way of selling?

Don't worry ED have it covered!

Firstly definitely message buyers - please don't wait for them to message you first! It is adviced to be proactive on EDUK. If you message buyers first it makes you seem more friendly....

It is recommended that messages to potential buyers (welcome or hello etc...) Should NOT be about selling! You read this right! DO NOT SELL to them! Weird isn't it? ...

Below are a few little examples of how best to approach buyers on EDUK.

WELCOME EXAMPLE -

"Hello & welcome to EDUK, if you need any guidance on the site or just a a little friendly chat - please drop me a message, I will be very happy to help you. I hope you enjoy it on here like I do! Take care, Tammy X"

HELLO EXAMPLE -

"Hello! I just noticed that you were online at the moment & I thought I'd just drop you a little hello. I hope you are enjoying EDUK, if you need any help or just like to chat - I will be happy to help you. Take care, Tammy X"

QUESTION EXAMPLE -

"Hello, I hope you do not mind me asking you a question? I will be putting a poll up soon about the type of kinks buyers are into - I don't suppose your mind voting in my poll to help me out? I genuinely would like to know what buyers like. Thank you! Tammy X"

PANTY DRAWER EXAMPLE -

"Hello! I just noticed you were online, I've just been updating my panty drawer today on here - I am just wondering if you had to choose something from it what would it be? Just to know if I'm on the right track! Thanks! Tammy X "

As you can see from the examples these messages are not direct selling, if buyers do reply to you that is great - however eventually you'd need to turn your chat into sales talk, after all it is a buying and selling platform.... We'd say a sale should be made within the first 3 days, after that it is a bit more clear that the buyer cannot buy for whatever reason.

After around 3 days and if buyers are messaging you wanting to chat but have not bought from you - we recommend this below message to them.

BUYERS NOT BUYING EXAMPLE -

"Hello! It has been great talking to you this week about various topics, please get back to me if theirs anything I can do for you, I have been told that my used panties are devine.... Take care, Tammy X "

Remember not to do dirty talk (unless they've paid first) this is because some buyers may get off on that from you for free! It's best to remain friendly & professional at all times.

And finally.... If you feel uncomfortable messaging buyers first - you could always rate there profile 5/5 or send them a virtual "HUG" to get there attention when they are online.

I hope this helps....

Good Luck!
