How to Sell on GeraMarket: Your First 100 Orders (Step-by-Step)

Quick answer. Register as a seller, list 10 well-photographed products, price conservatively for your first reviews, ship fast on the first 20 orders, request reviews honestly, and reinvest commission savings into better product photography. Most new sellers who follow this pattern reach 100 orders within their first full quarter on the platform.

Step 1: Register and Verify

Sign up at the seller page. Upload business documentation — registration certificate, ID of the beneficial owner, bank account or GeraCash wallet for payouts. Verification typically completes in 24–72 hours.

Step 2: Pick Your First 10 Products

Do not list your whole catalogue on day one. Pick the 10 products with the strongest combination of margin and velocity. Ten well-listed products outperform one hundred mediocre listings in discoverability and operational overhead.

Step 3: Photograph Seriously

This is the single largest lever in e-commerce conversion. Minimum: three photos per product. Ideal: six. Use natural light, a clean background, and capture the product from multiple angles. A smartphone camera from 2022 onwards is sufficient; tripod and diffused daylight beat expensive equipment every time. If you take one afternoon seriously on photography, you will beat most competing listings for the next 12 months.

Step 4: Write Titles and Descriptions Like a Buyer Searches

Put the primary keyword first. Include size, colour, material, and any specification a buyer filters by. Use bullet points for features. Write a short paragraph for storytelling if the product is handmade or has a story behind it. Avoid marketing adjectives with no substance.

Step 5: Price Conservatively on Day One

For your first 10–20 orders, accept a thinner margin in exchange for the review velocity it buys. An established product rating is worth more than the last few percent of margin on the first 20 units. Once reviews are rolling in, move price toward your target margin.

Step 6: Nail Shipping

Ship faster than the buyer expects. Use platform-integrated logistics where available. Pack well — underpacking is the single largest cause of negative reviews on fragile items. Include a short thank-you note with the package; it costs nothing and lifts review rates meaningfully.

Step 7: Handle Questions Fast

Buyers frequently ask questions before purchasing. Response time under 24 hours correlates with materially higher conversion than response after 48 hours. Set a reminder to check messages twice a day minimum.

Step 8: Request Reviews Honestly

After a buyer confirms delivery, send a polite message asking for a review. Never offer payment or freebies in exchange for a review — platform rules prohibit it and buyers dislike it.

Step 9: Monitor, Adjust, Expand

After 20 orders, look at which products are pulling and which are not. Kill the laggards; expand the winners with variants (colour, size, pack). Raise prices on products that are selling out faster than you can restock.

Step 10: Reinvest Into Photography and Inventory

The single highest-ROI reinvestment is better photography — a product shoot with a human model, on-location, lifts conversion further. The second is broadening your range within the same category so repeat buyers have more to buy.

Common Pitfalls

• Listing too much on day one.
• Flat, single-angle photography.
• Undifferentiated titles — "BEST PRODUCT NEW 2026" is worse than specific keywords.
• Slow shipping on first orders. The first 20 reviews set your rating floor; fight for all of them.
• Arguing in public with negative reviewers. Respond factually, offer resolution, move on.

Next Step

Start with five products this week. Photograph them properly on one afternoon. List them. Ship the first order faster than seems reasonable. Everything else compounds from there. Begin at the seller page.
