Week 5

We are now in our 5th week of trading and we have been really pleased with the support of local businesses, particularly the lovely people that I have met on Twitter.
Twitter has been absolutely critical in branching out to new people all over the UK, helping to spread our name and meet companies also starting up, because the categories we have are vast, people from most types of business are able to list items, or simply advertise their own businesses.
We have a few companies currently listing items with us which is fantastic, we fully appreciate that it's a leap of faith for people and that something new can't help but be a little daunting so we are thankful that the site has been designed with simplicity in mind.
The feedback we have had from some of the companies that have listed has been very positive, airing on the side of it being easy to use and simple to navigate which is good to hear as after looking at it for 6 months whilst the build was happening, we have got used to it, it's nice that our audience think it looks as good as we do. 
We have got some lovely items listed and categories are starting to fill up, we have got everything from cars to jewellery to kitchen splashacks to dvd's and lots of bits inbetween.
As the site is becoming more active, items are starting to sell which is great news for our sellers and will hopefully encourage repeat business.
We have made some enhancements to the site to make listing and buying easier for our customers, we have made the sections in 'My Account' more comrehensive so it's easy to find the items you want.

We could not be happier with the start we have had and hope that PoundSeller goes on to be a big success, we will sporadically put out promotional codes for free listings so make sure to follow us on twitter @PoundSeller and like our Facebook page www.facebook.com/poundseller

Look forward to seeing you soon

Thanks
