4 Steps to Packing Your Fashion Item for Posting

While we have been focusing on how to prepare the fashion item you have sold before posting, you should take some consideration of how you pack it to.

Presentation is extremely important, and so are first impressions.

You don’t want your customers feeling disappointed when they open up their package because you have crumpled up the garment and thrown it into a post bag.

Fold like a store

Have you noticed how much care is taken when you buy a garment from a good store?

It is folded and wrapped nicely, and you should do the same. Don’t crumple or screw the item up and expect to get a great review.

1. Wrap the item

Firstly, carefully wrap the item in tissue paper and tie it up with a ribbon. These things can be purchased cheaply, but they make a huge difference to the presentation of your item.

2. Keep it dry

Secondly, put every item into a plastic poly bag so that it can’t be damaged by rain or snow. Remove air and tape down securely so it can’t slip or slide around.

3. Make sure your customer learns who you are

Thirdly, get some business cards or thank you notes printed and add one. Remember to include your Fashmates Id, as well as, your Instagram handle so that the customer can find and follow you.

4. Spend a little extra on higher priced garments

Fourthly, use decorated poly bags for more expensive items as an added way of saying thank you or put them inside a box rather than a bag for extra security.

Now, all you have to do is use the shipping label provided by Fashmates, and call for pickup!
