I open my dashboard to check for
the comments. I find that someone comments on my Why I Love Resale article
about promoting my eBay store. This good fortune has come out of left field. It
is totally unexpected!
I have started eBay Adventures
series to show the good, bad and ugly about reselling on eBay. I have been
doing this since June 2016. I love to write, share and exchange my experiences
to help people. I am all about not making the same mistakes as I have. Learn
and grow from them.
I
am very thankful that someone wants to promote my eBay store because as a
solopreneur, it is hard promoting and marketing your store on your own. I am
grateful. This comment motivates me to keep sharing my eBay resale journey and
fashion livestream on both Blogger and www.carlarjenkins.com.
I am a tall women fashion luxury
consignment reseller. My motto is giving women Neiman Marcus merchandise at
near rock bottom prices. Shop my store here: www.ebay.com/usr/carljenkin_6
I have been in luxury consignment
resale since June 2016. It has been an unmatched journey marked with highs and
lows (mostly highs). Resale has provided me with a lot of personal and
professional opportunities. Here are my 5 reasons and 1 bonus on why I love
resale!
I get to find my items nice, new homes
I have so many items that I
haven’t worn in over 1-2 years. I love sending them to new homes and buyers who
appreciate them.
I help people save money (it’s the economist in me)
One of the reasons for getting
into resale is because I’ve seen how outrageous some of the prices are. I know
that you need to make a profit (my store does turn one) but gouging people is
not the way to do business.
Tip : I price my pre-owned (worn
before) ½ the original price. That’s market value and fair use. I have a 100%
customer feedback rating so people agree with me!
Resale community
I like being a part of the resale
community. I have learned so much from Raiken Profit’s YouTube channel. It’s
great to have a support system where people are reaching a common goal.
Improved my sales pitch
Resale has improved my sales
pitch. I have had to become a fashion blogger, create sales images in Canva, and
do livestreams on Periscope, Facebook Live and YouTube Live. Resale has helped
me improve professionally.
Provided me with an income stream
Resale has given me extra money
along the way. I have saved and used that money to prepare for my ITIL
Foundation certification course. I use my resale money to pay for the
GreyCampus Udemy ITIL Foundation prep course.
Bonus : Instant PayPal
Instant PayPal is a feature you
receive when you have high customer feedback rating. I have a 100% customer
feedback rating so I instantly receive my PayPal money transferring it directly
to my bank account the next day. It is like a reward for supplying high quality
customer service.
These five reasons (and one
bonus) are my reasons why I love resale. What are yours? Feel free to shop my
