Advice on Selling Deer

Hi:



I am looking for advice on selling deer. I would appreciate any suggestions and ideas on the best methods to get the word out that I am selling and to get it to my target demographic.



Thanks,

Daniel

Hi Daniel,

Even though there are only just over 1000 registered members on this forum there are MANY MANY more that read these forums on some regular basis. So your post above all ready helps.

Next you need to spend the money on print ads in all the major publications such as but not limited to, Deer Tracking, Deer Breeders Gazette, Whitetail Buyers Guide, Heartbeat, and there are several auctions booklets each year that give great exposure as well.

Good luck,

Roger

I agree with Roger. The sales catalogs are a great resource as they go out to a large number of farmers and they look back thru them throughout the year. The NADeFA catalog is a good one as well.

Daniel, I work for Whitetail Exchange here in PA, please call me, I can help you with sell.(717) 507-6385

Daniel,

Getting your deer the exposure it needs to get sold is always an inevitable challenge in the deer industry. www.BuckTrader.com helps with this by helping you reach your target demographic as easily and cost effectively as possible. We don't charge a commission fee...only a small monthly fee. With this monthly fee you get your own "My BuckTrader" account with complete control of your listings, a one-of-a-kind pedigree system, FREE buyer's leads, FREE advertisement in our email newsletters, and you can track your listing views, emails and save alerts. If you have any questions about how we can help sell your deer for you let me know. You can visit us at www.BuckTrader.com



I would also suggest putting ads and listings in magazines that are distributed throughout the deer farming industry since alot of deer farmers still rely on print. My suggestions for this would be The Whitetail Shopper and Deer Tracking Magazine



Also, it would probably be a good idea to get a website to help market your deer...it would be a great thing to put on your ads for potential buyers to visit and view more pictures of your deer.



Hope some of this helps...good luck!!
