Tips for Clear and Polite Communication to Close Deals Faster on markto.ch
- Respond quickly
Reply within 1–2 hours (ideally same day). Fast replies signal you’re serious and keep momentum — most deals close within 24 hours of first contact. - Start friendly and positive
Use a warm greeting + thank them for interest.
Good: “Hi! Thanks for your message 😊 The item is still available!”
Avoid: Just “Yes” or “Noch da?” - Be specific and concise
Answer questions directly, include key details (condition, pickup time, price).
Bad: “It’s good.”
Good: “Everything works perfectly, battery at 92%, no scratches. Can meet Saturday 3 PM at Migros [city].” - Use simple, natural language
Write like you speak — short sentences, emojis for friendliness (😊👍 common in CH).
Avoid long paragraphs or formal language unless it’s a high-value item. - Confirm everything in writing
Before meeting, restate the agreed terms clearly:
“So: CHF 180 cash, pickup Sunday 11 AM at [location], item as described. OK for you?” - Be polite when negotiating
Never say “Too expensive!!”
Better: “Thanks for the quick reply! Would CHF 200 work for fast pickup today?”
Small concessions + positive tone close deals faster. - Show seriousness
Mention your location, availability, and readiness to meet.
“I’m in Zürich, can come anytime this afternoon with cash ready.” - End messages with a question
Keep the conversation moving:
“When would suit you best?”
“Cash or TWINT OK?”
“Still interested at CHF 220?” - Switch to WhatsApp early
Once initial contact is made via form/email, suggest:
“Let’s continue on WhatsApp for photos and quick coordination? My number: …”
WhatsApp speeds everything up (photos, location pins, voice notes). - Stay calm if no reply
One polite follow-up after 1–2 days:
“Hi, just checking if you’re still interested? 😊”
Then move on — no pressure or double messages. - Always stay respectful
Even if someone ghosts, lowballs, or wastes time — end politely:
“Thanks anyway, good luck with your search!”
Clear + polite + fast = higher response rates and quicker sales/purchases. Most markto.ch users appreciate straightforward, friendly Swiss-style communication — it turns inquiries into handshakes in hours.
Communicate well, close fast! 🚀
