I have not posted the last two days but I do it every once in a while. I think it takes me a few days to start making sales after I start posting again. Not as much as you but I still work fulltime job so I post when I can. But when I give you a thumbs up I start making sales.
Marcus, if you want to reduce people sending you stained items, you should only give them one chance to make a mistake, then if the do it a second time give them maybe a 30 day time out from you buying from them and then if they do it again you won't buy from them anymore. Because yeah, you need to force them to be more detailed on their inspections of item for you. So that they don't. basically waste your time and money. Anyway thanks for 👍🏾
I looked for your sourcing link. You said was in the video and I didn't see it. Not sure if you could tell me what it is. Or how to be one of the sourcers for you don't know what kind of items you're looking for hopefully you have a sheet with your list of wants. Thanks@@DixonsPickins
While my store is small I was finding a had a lot of very old inventory. so I went in and started reducing the prices working on about 5 pages of 50 a day. I continued to list every other day but not usually more than 10 items. within 1 week my sales have jumped from around 10 to 12 weekly to an average of 25 weekly. about 50% of those are things that have been listed anywhere from 2 years to 8 months. All items came out of auction lots and have been paid for forever. Granted its not as much money as would of liked but its generating a lot of movement in my store. I too moving forward am trying to list only higher quality Items being more picky than I have ever been. I'm accepting all reasonable offers too. so using your system on a smaller level works.
During the hurricane I didn't list for a couple days and had my shop on vacation. I had several days with no sales which is rare for me. It has been picking up since I got back to work
I list every day. Even if its end/relisting old products. I try to list at least 10 items a day unless its high value items then that is the only time I list less. The past 3 months have been rough. I have been getting to a point to where I was ready to give up, but my sales have really bounced back and my high value items started selling so its starting to make up. For the first time in a long time, I have made my personal goal on weekly income. I hope Q4 is crazy with sales to make up for how bad this year has been.
1:33 marcus 100% that is the ONLY smart way to run a reselling business list the good stuff first (the Homeruns) that will pay for the whole trip or the whole lot of items you got that day because even if it sits for years when those other items do sell those items are PURE profit meaning even after fees and business expenses are taken out there are no more COGS because again those first few items that are sold from a lot or a sourcing trips should pay for ALL the items its how i have run my reselling business for 26 years its how James runs his! i'm so glad your talking about this i know James has tried to explain it on his videos and i have tried to explain it in lives and in comments but again Thanks for Mentioning this because a lot people say oh its costing you money no because that inventory is already bought and paid for i can sit on it for however long i want and its not costing me money because its not selling the home runs are selling the mid grade is selling the slower movers they might sell right away but eventually they will sell and by the time the sell its pure profit and you really do not have to worry about COGS on those items because all the home runs (or good items) have long paid for the slower moving inventory
@@semperfi-1918 yep not sure how much it helps like it use to but i have started to do the end and sell similar ever 90 days instead of every 30 days from Nov 2023 to June 2024 i was doing end and sell similar ever 30 days but from June to Sept 2024 i didn't do any and did not see a difference till middle of Sept so i figure since i have a big store (18k items) it does take time so if its not making as much of a difference as it use to then ill do it ever 90 instead of ever 30
I think perhaps one good way to have your sales go up and start a RU-vid channel on your reselling experience focused around whatever platform you want to see yourselves go up on. That might be a strategy
I don’t think that works for everyone. Take me for instance. I have a youtube channel and have had it since I started it ebay. I don’t share my eBay store anywhere specifically because I don’t want viewers shopping with me. I get some that come to whatnot but nothing that makes a difference. If you’re trying to sell to your audience you’re in it for the wrong reason
Been listing almost daily but because I'm a niche seller (comics) I make 1-2 sales a week. Not surprised since these are wants not needs, and I'm okay with that. Good vid, sir!
@@neildaniels18 Marvels, DCs and some indies...maybe 50 major keys but the majority sre non-keys. Only a few folks are collectors so I don't expect the books to be flying out of my boxes. Slow snd steady clears the room.
I stopped listing daily for a month and my sales fell off a cliff. I’m getting back to listing two items a day consistently and am definitely noticing more sales. Will be curious to see what happens when I get back up to 4-5 listings
Just the positive message of accepting whatever reasonable offer anyone sends. I’ve been reselling part time for 10 years and sometimes I still struggle with letting things go to an offer that I think is low. I just recently opened my eyes and started doing the same. Good message brother!
Long time reseller. I'm kinda weird. I'll list 30 40 listing in 1 day. Then nothing for 2 or 3 days. It's just my way. But my sales definitely surge and drop along with my listing habits
