Start with what you already have
Perhaps you already sew for neighbours, bake for family gatherings or make crafts at the weekend. Your first page does not need to tell every story. Choose one offer you can explain and deliver well.
Write the questions before the advertisement
What is it? How much is included? When can it be ready? Where can a customer collect it? Clear answers do more work than grand promises. If the price depends on size or quantity, explain how to get a quote.
Give a customer one easy next step
Ask for the product, quantity and date needed. You can then check capacity, price and collection arrangements before accepting the order. An enquiry is not yet a sale; both people need to understand what has been agreed.
Protect your time and the scope of work
Choose when you will answer messages and give a realistic preparation time. Keep a short record of the agreement. If the request changes, discuss a new price or date first. A small business deserves an orderly process too.
Learn together, without needing every answer
Ask a friend to look at your page on a phone. Let them read before you explain it. Ask what they understood, what remained unclear and what they would do next. That small conversation can help you improve the page before sharing it more widely.
