As we move into the final weeks of the year, here’s a rundown of some top delivery tips to help you maximise your sales - right up until the last posting dates.

 

Please note that you may need to adjust your trading activity according to your working days, handling times, or the delivery service offered. So, we recommend that you update your account with any changes that are made. 

 

Read on to see some additional steps that you can take to manage your account and boost visibility: 

  • Seller performance will be key for buyers in this period, so we encourage you to explore our essential delivery guide for peak season in Seller Centre. In this guide, you’ll find top tips to help you stand out from your competitors and maximise sales in this busy period. 

 

 

  • Speed is key as we get nearer to Christmas, as customers will need their items delivered in time and will look for listings that offer faster, tracked services. In turn, you’ll need to update your handling time and the carrier services you use for your listings to reflect this. If you use Business polices, you’ll need to update your policies with the new handling times and carrier services offered. You can make updates from your Business polices page. 

 

  • It’s also important to keep carriers’ last postage dates in mind for pre-Christmas delivery. Check out our post on Christmas last posting dates, but we also encourage you to monitor your carriers' websites for updates.
