Where best to promote our bargain?!

Options
Hi,

We are currently clearing our warehouse to make room for Christmas stock so we have a great deal on a branded kitchen appliance, that we think there'd be a lot of interest in.

We have a well established website, and we were going to promote it on Hot UK Deals, but in the rules it says companies can't submit their own deals.

As this forum is very savvy for looking for deals, can anyone make any suggestions how we can promote this?
(Not going to spam the forum so purposely keeping from mentioning any specific details of the deal) :A.

Thanks!

  • Thanks Sarah for the suggestions, was thinking of just sticking to online as we have less than 100 to sell of this item. We tried facebook ads last week, which went OK, but not amazing.

    Ebay if you have a small amount or local buy & sell groups on Facebook.

    tried adding links on twitter / facebook? use appropriate #hashtags on twitter for the items on sale

    eg- #offer #(product name / type) etc
    breathe in, breathe out- You're alive! Everything else is a bonus, right? RIGHT??
  • Get a friend to post it on HUKD?
    ...or post it yourself but just don't mention its your own company?

    Not the best idea to be honest.
