grayasparagus
@2di_4 lol! Thank you! I speak from my own struggles!!! #PosherProblems
thestarrynight
Just read several of your blog posts - loving your new blog! So funny and super enlightening for a new Posher like me! Thank you for sharing :).
erikagannon
very cool! Thank you for doing this!! If I can be f help or contribute, please let me know!!!! An asset to Poshmark you are!!! needless to say...subscribed!!! :)
grayasparagus
@erikagannon absolutely! Thank you and I certainly will!!!
grayasparagus
@thestarrynight thank you! I really hope it does help- I am trying to address issues/topics that I myself wondered about early on. If you have anything you would like me address- please keep suggestions coming!
grayasparagus
@bb6491 thank you!!!
grayasparagus
@ridinghood13 💋💋💋
thestarrynight
@vance289 Do you have posts re: sales/pricing, ie the typical range of time that it takes to make your first sale, usual velocity of sales for new items, pricing strategies, etc?
grayasparagus
@thestarrynight no, but I am going to address pricing very soon! Thanks for that confirmation ! Next up is... RATINGS! Just have to gather the courage to publish it - lol! It can be a touchy subject 😳😁
thestarrynight
@vance289 Oh wow - I don't even know what ratings are yet! Looking forward to your post!
grayasparagus
@thestarrynight you have a super cute closet and your photos are fantastic!
thestarrynight
@vance289 Oh my gosh! Thank you! My ears are burning (with joy)! Just joined PM last week and been working hard to build my closet. Addicted to PM! Have found all 10 of your "Things You Didn't Know.." article to be true! I work in fashion, and my (physical) closet is jam-packed with treasures: one-of-a-kind designer samples; items I adore but err, can't fit into right now; hasty purchases that I didn't try on which resulted in mirror dismay at home; vintage pieces I've found over the years. Excited to share my lovelies with a community just as fashion-obsessed :).
grayasparagus
@thestarrynight you are off to a great start and welcome! It took me about 2 weeks to get my first sale and TRUST me, my cover shots were nowhere near as great as yours. Keep sharing and you will have a sale in no time!
ashtyn40
Looks like I found a site I'll be frequenting! I've read about half of your sharing piece so far. Good tips!
jen26vegas
Great blog, your top 10 list was great, number 8 was my favorite!
grayasparagus
Thanks @ashtyn40 ! I appreciate you taking the time!!
grayasparagus
Thanks @jen26vegas ! I know they are all true for me!
grayasparagus
@ridinghood13 long story my friend...
grayasparagus
@chell209 if you click on my "about" in my closet there is a link there! If you are in a desktop it is at the top of my closet :)

grayasparagus
@rosebudcat THANK YOU!!!
corporatebarbie
Hi Elle. I just checked out your blog. It is very well done. I love the style, and your writing. But mostly I love that you are generous and open minded and encouraging. Each Posher has their own style and as long as they are following the rules, we should appreciate that. I will be back. Thank you so much for blogging!
grayasparagus
@kristinkingsley Thank you so much for that feedback! I want to try to put a positive spin on everything that could seem negative- I'm glad that came across :) I appreciate you taking the time to read it!
martylou83
I just read every single one of your posts! Thank you so much. I learned some new things and picked up some tips that I'm excited to utilize! 👍
grayasparagus
@martylou83 thank you so much !!! If I can help someone make a sale- I will be thrilled!
marycstephens
The blog is great!!💗😄
chictowear
Great blog! You are tooooo darn funny! I love it! :)
maureen888
My word! I've been reading this maybe the past hour, I think I've fallen right in love with you! 😂 Thank you! 💕 Fantastic read this far! 🙌
grayasparagus
@maureen888 LOL! Thanks for that early morning laugh- a real laugh- not just an obligatory 'lol' . Thanks for taking the time to read my ramblings! I'm having so much fun saying everything that's been on my mind for the past year.
maureen888
Coming from a writer, a posher, and the world's biggest critic (never take me to the movies), I am so thoroughly enjoying this! With the frenzy, I'm sure a movie is not very far behind! Yes, we will all go see it! Only some of us will yell at the screen! I'm sure all agree, as it hits home with all of us, but I'm not sure how many are talking to their phone as they do! Hahaha! Status Level: Hero
maureen888
Ps- I tried putting in a $5 offer on this listing, thought it would be a great laugh! Apparently, I need to add a few more zeros to that offer!
grayasparagus
@maureen888 haha! I tried to put a $3 offer on a friends party post but it told me the lowest I could go was $2500 !!! I had NEVER Seen that before- guess Posh put a low-ball blocker in place!
grayasparagus
@maureen888 and thank you from the bottom if my ❤️ for those words of encouragement!
maureen888
I love it! I can't decide which term I can't stand most, low baller, sharing is caring, or the new PFF, but hang in there, I'm just getting to the PFF, and that is a newer term for me! I lie not, I've had to google some things the past few years, i.e., #TBT, #YOLO RUM (still don't fully understand that), etc., basically, anything hash that isn't browns, I have to google it... My age may be starting to show! 🙈
maureen888
Good gravy! I had no idea what was with the PFF! I feel silly! I blocked someone who kept calling me PFF! It freaked me out, honestly! I am not an acronym fan, I love words! I'd just come out and say, "Hey girl, I see you!" Boom. FF! lol! Omg! ☺️
grayasparagus
@maureen888 You blocked a PFF!!!!!!!!!!! OMG
maureen888
I didn't know her! I thought she may have been crazy! I need to know these things, please! Keep writing! 🙈
grayasparagus
@maureen888 will do my friend! Oh- and thanks for always consistently sharing my closet!
maureen888
You're welcome! But it's all my benefit! If I want it, I share it, keeps me from buying it! Unfortunately, I can't share at Neiman Marcus and other stores! I'd save a lot of money! 😂😜
mytherapy
Elle! I love your blog! I stayed up until midnight reading the entire thing last night, couldn't stop! Love your writing style, love the topics you chose, and I love how you offer so many viewpoints on everything. Perfectly written and definitely captivating!

@vance289 Elle…nice blog!
grayasparagus
@thestarrynight hey! I just wanted to let you know I posted in the blog about pricing strategies👍 thanks for the suggestion!
thestarrynight
@vance289 Thanks for letting me know! Just finished reading your article - it was super helpful (been wondering about the Coming Soon listings I've seen). What's a recommended range for number of likes for an item before you publish a sale price - 5, 50, 100?
tippiejax
Again, love it, will use it, help to mentor...just ️THANKS!
grayasparagus
@tippiejax thank you so much for your kind words! I only can hope that it helps someone make sales or helps them cope with #PosherProblems lol!
lakeforest
Elle, I just read your whole blog and you're to be commended for saying all the things many of us ( yours truly) haven't had a chance to say yet👏👏👍Posh has evolved a lot since I started, lol😉 I'll definitely refer your blog to those I've been currently mentoring! Have a blast at your Rock Star party too🎉xo Dorothy

Hi PFFs! I just posted a new blog post about being "safe" on Poshmark. I think it's important tips for newbies who may not realize what can be risky. Don't worry, I am not going to ask this everytime- but if you know any newbies that may benefit- please tag them!

Shared! I just think following posh rules are really beneficial to poshmark safety:)
grayasparagus
@angelrick absolutely! Especially if you want to be covered by Poshmark Protect!
angel10
awesome! My best advice is to read up on the feedback of others before purchasing or "selling" and yes I said "selling"... It's sad but you have to be careful of buyers as well. I would rather have no sales than sales from scammers or dishonest ppl. Also trading! --- JUST DON'T DO IT! there are some trustworthy ppl up here & the idea of trading does sound cool at times but you must be very careful! okay I'm done lol :) ...... go ELLE!!!
erikagannon
I'll be glad to!! Your blog is AWESOME and helpful! I've been meaning to tell you! I am about to drive but I will tag some gals tonight!! And feel free to have me share anytime no you are doing a great thing here!!👍👍

rudegyal
Nice blog! 😀 I never thought about the going out of town part. I started taking pics of seams etc too. If i have a odd feeling i will record the items. Sad, but it has to be done. Buyers remorse happens and i see people damage items just for a refund. 😟
grayasparagus
Thanks @rudegyal ! It is sad that there are people out there that would do that :(
rudegyal
yw! forgot about the " i didnt get the package too!" Ppl have done that too. I looked at their address on google earth, i find it hard to believe sometimes. lol

Great posts and advice. Thanks! 👍

@momoretro Thank you for taking the time to read!
grayasparagus
@mrsdiva703 Good Morning to you too!!! Once again- we are the only ones up and at it! LOL
cdiva917
Right! Early bird gets the WORM! *gulp* I like when the feed is slow, easier to share the feed, and see who is up and sharing! More interesting to see the west coasters up and AT IT! Posh never sleeps.
momoretro
It's worth it, in general I have felt safer on Poshmark than elsewhere. A few mos ago was badly burned by a seller on E--- and P- did not protect me as they claim to. BTW, I love your closet I see that you have many "neutrals" which I love. I have a moratorium on buying currently, but enjoying looking!!
grayasparagus
@momoretro thanks!!! I'm all about neutrals and classics too. I am not much for trendy things! I do occasionally like "odd" mixed in with classic.

@vance289 Elle where have I been?? I didn't know you even had a blog and it is sooooooo good!!! I am a seasoned Posher and you are teaching me new things!!! Can I find you on Bloglovin?? I NEED TO FOLLOW!!!!!
grayasparagus
@cmarshall38 thank you so much for that!!!!! I really just started it maybe a month ago?? I have NO CLUE what bloglovin is!?!?
cmarshall38
@vance289 no worries it's cool! I just needed to figure out how to subscribe. But I figured it out. Seriously it is well written and awesome information!!!
grayasparagus
@cmarshall38 haha ok! I will search and see if I can figure out what to do- thanks for the tip!

dpalmer01
@vance289 Hello...I am pretty new to PM. I really enjoy all the layers that one gets to discover selling and buying here. I feel like there is a whole world out there that I've missed out on. I'm on board now!!!
I just read your blog and was already to snicker over some things I can relate to in a short amount of time. I started laughing about the pregnancy test part. Wow!
Look forward to some shooping, selling, and meeting others on PM. Diane
grayasparagus
@cmarshall38 I am now available on bloglovin! It took a few days to figure out what was wrong and why it wouldn't connect- But I solved it! Thanks for letting me know about it!!!
notoriousvog
Thanks so much for your blog! ❤️ I just read a bunch of posts and I'm going back to read the rest right now! 👍 I wish I had read something like this when I first started on Posh a year ago...
grayasparagus
@notoriousvog thank you for reading! This month is my one year on posh too! Basically that's what I wanted to do- give the "real life" advice - cut to the chase- and not just regurgitate the Poshmark guidelines :) thanks again!!!

@1hermitcrab a hey there by dear friend!! Just took a quick work break to introduce you to Elle... She is a super sweet Posher that offers up some great tips on her Blog! Now I know you are in no way a newbie... But I follow her Blog too... It's GREAT info!!!
grayasparagus
Thanks for the introduction @erikagannon ! Hi @1hermitcrab, its nice to meet you!
grayasparagus
@1hermitcrab I think I just became your 10,000th follower!!!
erikagannon
You're very welcome!! Lori, @1hermitcrab you are going to love Elle! She is always so kind and upbeat!
grayasparagus
@erikagannon I owe it to coffee... Lots and lots of ☕️☕️☕️
erikagannon
Hey... Whatever works gal!! I even hit up the coffee this morning!! Look out! I'm hyper enough without! Lol
grayasparagus
@1hermitcrab I started the blog a little over a month ago! It has all been positive so far- I have nothing to compare it to- or any friends who blog so I have had to teach myself how to do it! I don't know what the biggest challenge would be- that's a great question! I guess it would depend on what your goals are and what you want to get out of your experience. If you have a circle of great friends and are having fun- then it sounds like you win!!!
grayasparagus
@1hermitcrab followers #'s aren't everything- that's true- but celebrating milestones is soooo much fun!
erikagannon
@1hermitcrab WOOOOHOOOOO CONGRATS My Dear Friend! You so deserve it!!!👯👯👯👯
lepetitearmoire
Just read your blog about the SU, I just got the SU email on Friday. I hadn't seen any major follows until this morning around the morning party. I noticed last night I almost had 8K and this morning when I opened my PM I had almost 8500 and within minutes I reached about 1000 new followers. I wish I had know about the hour SU you mentioned. It's so helpful am fairly new, so there are some things I still need to figure out how they work, but it was very helpful to read your blog!
cmarshall38
Ladies follow this blog!! It is seriously one of my favs and I follow A LOT of blogs!! Awesome and sooo much valuable info! Check it out!!!

@brie309 I have kept track- you know how I analyze EVERYTHING. Have you kept track?
briewineposh
No need to! It's 2x a week...not almost every day! Geez

YES 😹😹 That one was my favorite, but of course I'm biased. We should be honored to be leading this movement 😼❤️❤️❤️

@suzmeow I would... But my cat is unimpressed and keeps me humble 😂😂😂🙀

@kcbaker Elle! Please meet my dear friend KC. She just joined Poshmark in search of new looks. Not sure if she's ready to sell but I figured you and your blog would be a great help to her. KC be sure to follow Elle! She's the best!
kcbaker
Hi Elle! My dear friend @jkdressler connected us. So happy to be entering the Posh world. I love your writing. Looking forward to connecting here! In search of some new looks post baby and now back feeling great and strong in my body. Your styles are awesome. Xo KC
grayasparagus
Thank you @jkdressler ! Hi @kcbaker !! It's so nice to meet you! Thank you for stopping by the blog- that means a lot to me 😃 Posh is soooo much fun- I started off selling and ended up buying so I'm sure you will end up doing both! It's hard not to. Please let me know if you ever need any questions answered!

@vance289 saw this earlier & checked out your blog... Great info & made me smile! I agree with you on the stars as I am just buying right now I give 5 stars if as described good service etc I don't fault the person if I did not ask enough questions! I think that was the biggest learning curve thing for me is knowing what to ask... We learn from trial & error... I have become far more selective as who I buy from & I ask far more questions now.

I just read your blog. I could go on and on in this comment, but I won't. I'll just say- brilliant. I wish I only knew of you sooner.
grayasparagus
@mrsperkins thank you!!!! I appreciate you taking the time to read it!!! I have only been blogging for about 6 weeks
mrsperkins
Of course, I was happy to read it. You did a great job! (editing can be kicked up a knotch😉). I enjoyed all your help you laid out for new Poshers, I wish I had a chance to read something like that as I was starting out. Another good subject to touch on is the enormous amount of bullying by women on here. When I think of posh, that is the #1 horrible thing I think of. I have been attacked so many times
mrsperkins
My hubs and I have been involved involving posh support and I'd say they are really disappointing. The lack of support from the support team was rather discouraging.

This blog is fabulous! Thank you (I've been stewing over a 4 star for days... I suddenly feel better :))

@jessjherrera I am so glad you feel better! I was super nervous about posting my ratings but I knew so many people were in the same boat and just no one wants to talk about it or admit it! Thanks for taking the time to visit my blog! XOXO

Hi hun ! I've recommended your closet and awesome Posh tips to a few newbies. Thought I should check with you - is it ok to keep directing folks to you? Your blog is super helpful and funny :).
grayasparagus
@thestarrynight of course! Thank you!!
onthemovecc
@jordanacouture If you get a chance go to this website...It is really helpful and a nice take on the Poshmark world! LOL
grayasparagus
Hey @meg23 thank you soooo much!! This is my post with my blog info
thestarrynight
@vance289 Loving your blog and loving sharing it with Posh newbies. Could I ask for additional advice on how to become a Suggested User? I've taken your blog advice to heart: I work hard on styling my (Posh-compliant) closet, share often, regularly attend parties, love welcoming new Poshers, and have received 5-star feedback on all my sales to date. What else can I be doing to optimize chances for taking my Posh membership to the next level?
grayasparagus
@thestarrynight if you are doing all that it sounds like you are in track! Make sure you have emailed to request to be an SU and then just wait 👍
meg23
@hinaqr @nyreecox this is the blog I was telling y'all about, there's a great article explaining how the suggested user system works and how to maximize its potential to boost your closet! Check it out!
thestarrynight
@vance289 Thanks 💕! I emailed the SU team a little while ago - fingers crossed!
hinaqr
Thank you @meg23 really nice if you to help out. 😊

Thank you so much for sharing that! You are the best! is there a way to access that list while on the comp?
grayasparagus
@bal91 I have only found it on my iPhone/iPad... If I find it then I will let you know! (I didn't look that hard I will admit)
grayasparagus
@bal91 and thank YOU for your input yesterday!
onthemovecc
LOL okay :) I havent found it yet Ive been searching around a little bit
onthemovecc
No problem girl! :) So I dropped out of the style challenge lol it was soo hard to keep up with especially when some days I just want to lay aorund in my jammies :)
grayasparagus
@bal91 I rarely actually wear an "outfit" so it was way too much work to "stage" those photos!
onthemovecc
LOL I hear you! Same with me :)
grayasparagus
@classicstylegal this is my blog where I blog about Posh... I basically give away all my strategies and post advice etc.But If @kellyandsaw is your friend you already have an expert on hand!
classicstylegal
@vance289 Thank you so much! I really want to turn my Posh closet into a solid source of income and y'all's advice is so helpful! Kelly is my best friend, and she has been amazingly helpful and motivating - she's kind of a badass!

@vance289 YAY! I was jussssst wondering earlier today when you'd post again. I'm trying to keep tabs on that cart you mentioned😜 I posted it in our fb group too so hopefully those ladies read it LIKE I TELL THEM TO👊🏼😻😻
grayasparagus
Awwww thanks @sassified ! Good to hear from you!!!! Hope you are well! I am working On Making a blog page... Can I be part of a "group" if I am a "like able" page?
thriftymash
@vance289 Hmmm I'm not sure but I'll experiment with it. It's also... Not everyone in there are "friends" on fb so we only interact on that group. It's pretty dead right now though cause we've all kind of wandered away.
grayasparagus
@sassified ok, I will activate my "page" and we can test it! Will tag you when I do... Have been wanting to join your group since you mentioned it ohhhhh a year ago! Lol
grayasparagus
@sassified ok! I just make it active... The Gray Asparagus page
grayasparagus
@sassified no problem.. Send me the link and if I can't add from the blog page then I will do from my other page. I go to bed super early so I may not respond tonight- I am asleep by 9pm EDT
cdoll84
Good blog and good advice! Ps-the girl on the train was such a good book! Just read it somewhat recently too.
grayasparagus
@cdoll84 Thank you so much! Yes it was a great book- I just finished up "In the Unlikely Event" by Judy Blume and it was FANTASTIC.
cdoll84
Oooh! Good to know! It could be next on my list to read then!

@alreid79 Thank you! I figured I'm not the only one who thinks like me :)
seakareem
Loved the blog post and it was very helpful as a new posher to hear a veteran's approach. I work so much during the school year, I really want to get some routines down so I can keep up then. I'm having a lot of fun presenting and posting my clothes-aside from that though, it's
Hard to know where to dedicate the most energy. This was helpful!
thestarrynight

you should put your blog link under you about me page :).
grayasparagus
@angel10 funny you should say that! I just had to email Posh Support because I have to re-add it every few days.... For some reason it deletes it!!!!
angel10
@vance289 that's so weird! I definitely thought you had it there before but couldn't quite remember.
grayasparagus
@rosesandbunnies I just ran across your post and am following! If you need any advice or have questions as you start to sell- feel free to ask! Also, I have a blog where I give Posh tips and advice (website in this listing). Good Luck!
rosesandbunnies
@vance289 oh thank you so much!! You're so kind! 💕 I'll check out your blog shortly :)
secondlovedco
@vance289 I have a quick question! I was selling 3-5 packages every week about 2-3 months ago and now I'm lucky if I sell something 1x a month! What's going on with my sales? I share the same, keep my closet stocked with new things, and I have not changed the way I operate or anything!! I even just co-hosted my very first Posh Party and still no sales..
secondlovedco
..I get a bunch of likes and shares but no sales. Is it me? Or has everyone's sales taken a huge nose-dive? I'd love to hear your thoughts on this! 💋 Thanks!
grayasparagus
@247mommieto2 I am going through the exact same thing! July was a VERY slow month for me... August has been a slight improvement. I think it is a mixture of things... Back to school time and everyone spending their clothing money on the kids, and also wanting to wait for a shipping promo. I think weather has a lot to do with it too....
grayasparagus
@247mommieto2 I know that for me- it's late in the season to buy more summer clothes and am ready to transition to fall, but it's WAY TOO HOT where I live to even think about a sweater! I'm just going to hang in there and keep doing what I'm doing- "likes" are not a bad thing- especially when there is a closet clear out promo.
cmc514
I keep meaning to stop by and tell you I loved reading your blog the other day. Particularly the shipping one!!! EVERY POSHER NEEDS TO READ THAT!!!

You're so welcome! I made a post about re-poshing a couple months ago, after a buyer was actually worried I'd be mad if she re-poshed b/c it didn't fit her. I explained how it worked (using "the polite way" as you call it!). I obviously haven't posted it yet lol, I felt it needed some rewording in regards to how one should consider pricing. I really need to post it now for other reasons 😒.
cmc514
I LOVE how you mention that others can see your purchases! That is a great point. It's one thing to factor in shipping & PM's 20% fee, but much more than that (ESPECIALLY if they got a great deal) is just plain rude to the original seller IMO.
perfectlyprim
Hi @vance289 I can't access your blog, hoping its my error
grayasparagus
@perfectlyprim yes, sorry! Having issues with it- I will let you know if/when I get it up and running
grayasparagus
@perfectlyprim It's back up and running! Thank you for letting me know- clearly I have no clue what I am doing :)
missjessicaanne
I love❤️ your blog posts!!
akaerin
Great advice! I have often held out on making an offer, and to my horror, see that sold for actually a couple of dollars LESS to somebody else he WASNT ashamed to make an offer!
I will definitely pass on your blog. Love it!😍
grayasparagus
Thank you @missjessicaanne !!!

@akaerin I hate learning lessons the hard way ARRRRRGH! Thank you !!!!
jules_fern
@vance289 Oh hello there! I have been reading your blog all morning and loved your tips and advice ☺️ What I most loved was your funny story about the necklace that sold. If you are at all interested in a similar, I feel prettier necklace from Francesca's Collections, I have been thinking of selling it before the fall 😊💕

sweetserver017
@vance289 hey I just wanted to say I snooped through your blog a little just now and I could totally relate to what you said about having a maximum price you're willing to pay but then being afraid of insulting the seller 😁
briewineposh
PFFs!! If you haven't already read some of Elle's blog, you NEED TO GO NOW (yes now 😜) and read some of the wittiest and most helpful advice for PM buyers, sellers, and just fashion addicts alike.

I so love your blog Elle :) I haven't participated in share groups mainly because my schedule varies so much that I feel like it would be hard to commit. But if YOU start a group, I would definitely give it a shot :)
grayasparagus
Awwww thank you my friend @jkdressler ! I would love to start one but my fear of commitment holds me back, Hehe! I will let you know if I do though! XOXO
jkdressler
I can tell from the way you write that it's probably not a fear of commitment: rather a fear that if you start something, you'd want to live up to it 100%, so the fear comes from not being able to give it 100%. Am I right?! I'm like that too :)
grayasparagus
@jkdressler 🔨🔨🔨 nailed it.

You're awesome :)

@vance289 This is so cool! How can I blog for Posh? I'm a Writer/English teacher if that helps....💘😊💘
grayasparagus
@twinkletoestoni I am not affiliated with Poshmark in any way... I just blog about it and other things for fun! The official blog for Posh is blog.poshmark.com... I THINK that you can submit to be a guest blogger for them but I have never done it. I blog about Posh unofficially only because I want to help :)
tonistwinkles
@vance289 Ok, thanks! 😊
voguerecycled
@vance289 I somehow came across this and just read the entire blog! Posh sales have been totally dead for me despite doing all of the "right" things...I could totally relate to refusing things drastically and still no sales! It just stared picking up for me in the lady 2 days after a month! Anyway love your blog & I too would love to start a share group but I'm way too busy ☺️
erikagannon
would you mind if I posted this and the link to your blog? I am truly honored you made mention of our group!

erikagannon
Oh my POSH! At my typos!!! My house has been turned upside down! I want you to be a part of the fun is what I was meaning to type... Albeit poorly! Shoot me ur mailing address if it's ok to send you a fun tee! That's all😊

@erikagannon sorry! I was not Poshing today. Hope that someone was able to do that for you!
jkdressler
Hi Elle! I have a question that may be good for your blog to address. How come people add items to a bundle and then disappear? What's your experience with this been?
grayasparagus
@jkdressler ooooh yes! I have been waiting to discuss bundling until I have more experience. But my short answer/opinion to this is that I think that the "bundle" is the new "like" also- I think they may be using it as a calculator to see how much it would all be. Thanks for the suggestion and it will prob be my next post!!!
jkdressler
I think you're totally right. I think people add to a bundle also so if they end up coming back to your closet much later and then realize they had a previous like on something's then they can get the discount. I've been selling mostly via the make an offer button but I have yet to sell a bundle through the bundle feature!
hacsince91
The thumbs up! I'm similar, I'll take months off at a time and then return for one or two and barely touch it then wash and repeat. I've embarrassed myself with the giant thumbs up a few times.. Ahah
flirtwlpdx
@christinedeeann
ayshadancer
Hey, Elle! Have you messed around with the new features yet? Tagging colors, new categories/sub categories...my phone just updated last night and some of my items already have the new color tags. This could be handy!!
grayasparagus
@ayshadancer yes, it auto sorted what it knew... Like if you have "black shorts" in your title then it would put it in those two categories. Have you gone through your listings? Have there been any mistakes? I haven't had the time to do it yet.... Definitely cool/helpful !!!
ayshadancer
I've done a few listings, just recategorizing and adding a couple of color tags but of the few I've checked, there haven't been any mistakes. Not glaring ones anyway, like a skirt being tagged as shorts. I may mess with it a little at work today. Shhh! Don't tell my boss! Lol

@nluciano don't worry about it! No need to share back! Have a great day😀
ayshadancer
Ack! New potential topic!!! What do you do when you have two offers on the same item, one of which has a pending counteroffer from you? A posher gave me an offer, I countered but she has not yet responded (7 hours left before it expires). I just got another offer on the same item from a different posher that falls between the first offer and my counter offer.
ayshadancer
I know the other posher has been on since then (thanks Posh for including that bit of info!). Should let her know that I need to know what she wants to do and let the second posher know i'm waiting on a decision or what do you think? I'd be willing to accept the second offer--it's only a dollar off of my counter to the first offer. But i don't want to upset the first if she still wants them. She did arrive first, afterall.
emalabama
@vance289 Elle, I love your blog.❤️ I am new to Poshmark. Just getting my closet organized, and being, well me, I am obsessively researching tips/tricks etc. I stumbled upon your blog through another I was reading (I know, I know...haha) and have spent the last 30 minutes reading intently. It's the best I've come upon as far as practical advice and keeping your sanity goes.💖 I love your POV, advice, and congenial writing style. Keep it coming girl.

@vance289 can I ask if you do this full time? That's like the fantasy for me, but I don't want to be unrealistic about it!!
grayasparagus
@clairexcouture No I don't, some days it feels like it though!

thanks for the Shares ... you have a great closet!

Love the new post! I'll be finished with my classes soon and will be able to work more on Poshing. Hoping my sale will help kick off the Thanksgiving/Christmas/New Years season!!
grayasparagus
@ayshadancer crossing my fingers for you!!!
ayshadancer
Thanks, sweet Elle! You're the best! Have things picked up for you since your vaca?
grayasparagus
@ayshadancer yes! Once I started taking my own advice ! Haha
ayshadancer
I have such a hard time with that, too, sometimes. I can dish out decent advice sometimes but i have a hard time following it. Strange, isn't it? Glad your sales have picked up!! That's always nice. :) It's a small goal butbi'd love to have 3 sales in one night. Lol!
clairemichellek
love your blog!!!!

@vance289 ohhh this is awesome! Will ck out tomorrow👍🏼
kitkat2340
What does trade mean on poshmark?
grayasparagus
Hi @kitkat2340 ! If someone comments on your item "trade???" it is their way of asking you to swap items with them. You would decide which items to swap and ship to each other. This is NOT supported by Poshmark (not against the rules either) but if something goes wrong then you are not protected or insured.
grayasparagus
@kitkat2340 I do not recommend trading. I do not trade and have a purchase only closet.

@vance289 did you just share my wardrobe? Because my phone just physically exploded :) So, you are nice as well? I have to hate you now. :) thank you Elle for helping a rookie out. Your blog should be Poshmark Bible. And your closet is a dream. You nailed this. :)
grayasparagus
@nythrift HAHA! You are too kind...
grayasparagus
@nythrift Thank you for that tag! I didn't know if I could comment on that listing in case you wanted to keep it comment free. 😘😘😘
nythrift
@vance289 I got that idea from a different posher and thought it was awesome. There are so many beautiful closets and helpful poshers that I want people to know. It's free for comments and other great closet suggestions. :)

HI @peaceangel2 I got you tag about a host pick! Check out my blog if you want... I give some advice about how to get (and qualify) for a host pick. Have a great day :)

@vance289
Hi I tried to go on GrayAsparagus.com and it says can't open page, am I doing something wrong?
grayasparagus
@lisasandler let me look! Did you click the link at the top of my page? If you are using the app it's inside the "about" section
grayasparagus
@lisasandler it's works on my end... Did you leave the "the" off the beginning maybe?

jules_fern
@vance289 Any chance you could tell me how come when I post listings I can only select 2 colors and I've seen other people lost items with several? Seems so insignificant but it might help me with visibility.
grayasparagus
@jules_fern I only have the ability to list 2 colors as well! If I see someone who has more than 2 I will ask them and let you know, I would love to know as well for my multi color items.
jules_fern
@vance289 I asked one girl and she had no idea Posh just gave her the option haha Thanks for keeping an eye out!☺️

💜 your blog Elle! I joined to buy in July and created my closet in late Oct. A newbie like me so appreciates your insights! 💫🎉 Thank you! May we all bring Joy to others and shine all the way in our own unique style! 🌟🙏💕 @azann @happyorganics @dezchic @fashionanyone @sfconway

@vance289 hi Elle, don't feel you have to share back...I just like spreading the news around that you're co-hosting :)

@incognito13 Thank you! You are so sweet!
grayasparagus
Thank you @secretmarvels ! Comments like that make me keep blogging :)
grayasparagus
Thanks for recommending @morgue6feet ! XOXO
jkdressler
Great post! Did u share multiple items per closet or just one, as they came up on your feed? Did you focus on those who seemed to be online currently (meaning they shared their own listing so you know they were on)? I always have that dilemma about what pays off more!
grayasparagus
@jkdressler Thank you! I do all of what you said! It's really just everything on my newsfeed, but sometimes a listing will catch my eye so I check out their closet and share or I recognize a posher that I may not have shared in a while... I don't keep track of who shares back especially like right now when I am sharing at 5am! Most times people will share back- later in the day and that helps my closet get shared when I can't.
grayasparagus
@jkdressler ... and of course I have my personal share list that I share from (you are on it, of course) so typically every few days if you notice me sharing 15-20 of your items- I am using my list :)
i_cravebargains
Hey @vance289 I love you new listings. I meant to tell you yesterday. :-)
happyorganics
😊❤️ @jysabuda Another amazing posher with great tips!
jysabuda
@vance289 how long did it take you to post so many items? I'm struggling with getting it over 150. I'm overwhelmed now because I have so much stuff that stacked up so high that I just want to throw in the towel. I need some motivation 😭😬 can't sell if I don't list!!
grayasparagus
@jysabuda Hi! I have been on Posh for about 1.5 years so it has been over that period of time! I have it down to a science but it can still take a while. What I would recommend is putting your LIKE items together (tops, pants, bags etc) and do it one category at a time. I have started to make a list of measurements, materials, condition. From there I take photos, and then I list last.
grayasparagus
@jysabuda Also, make goals,only do 10-20 pieces at a time and chip away at it that way. If you try to do all at one- you will get burned out!
jysabuda
@happyorganics thanks for recommending. I'm amazed by all these Poshers who can list over 500 items. Makes me feel like, I will never get there. Doing this business is like having a full time job. Hoping that I'm not going to give up up continue on. Did many MLM and just given up but I'm thinking this is different. Thank you for you advice and support...I really need it!
grayasparagus
@jysabuda It's so much better than an MLM! Please don't get discouraged... it can take a lot of work and this time of the year can be difficult but get stuff listed and share, share, SHARE and you will have success!
happyorganics
@jysabuda Don't give up! Poshmark is amazing and the beauty of it is you can go at any pace that makes you the most comfortable. Everyone here is so supportive. Your listings will rack up as you go and keep in mind the sold listings are included in the total as well as informative posts. I am still learning as well, but I will always be here to help you or find answers to questions you have. :)
jysabuda
@vance289 love reading your insightful blog. I'm very new to this. I created an account last year but haven't been active until this year October. Wondering if you could answer some of my question as an experienced Posher.
1. Should I list all my closet items? Should I be more selective?
2. Can you make serious money on here? What does it take?
3. How can I know what items are most popular and most wanted?
4. Is it worth selling brand new items at retail prices on here?
grayasparagus
@jysabuda Thanks! Well, what do you mean by "all" of your closet items? Some ladies DO make a lot- but I do not know how much profit they make. You do have to dedicate a lot of time and energy to make it profitable from my experience. As far as the New Retail, I do not sell that type- it's not my thing. I may in the future but I do not have experience now.
grayasparagus
@jysabuda You have to find your niche that you enjoy. You can determine what brands are popular through experience and also check out the brand showrooms- Posh showcases popular brands.
jkdressler
Good to know!! I really love your posts because you take the time to think about the strategies that work!

Hey girl you have a beautiful closet! I'm so sorry to bother you but I've always dreamed of becoming a fashion & beauty blogger & I finally decided to start my own website, it's www.darkhaireddoll.com please if you have any advice, want to help me by sharing my blog or just want to keep up with it, it would mean the world to me. Thank you for your time, doll ❤️
grayasparagus
Hi @fahimxx thank you so much! The best advice I could give is to find a mentor or service that can advise you on how to reach your goals with your blog! I do not blog about fashion and just use it mainly to offer advice about PoshMark :) you already have site so you are already on your way! good luck and thanks for checking it out!!

@vance289 you should start 100k + share group. It would be for Postmark elite that has 100k+ followers and everyone will strive to get in. Sharing 10 items/first 10 signed up/100k + followers. Can you imagine the exposure.:) All the little boys and girls will dream to be part of "top 10" club. Only half way kidding.:)

grayasparagus
@smchop thank you!! Did you agree or disagree?
smchop
So....Is room for everyone and everything on Posh? (well, "compliant" everything ;) ) I agree with you that yes, there is. Things will sift as most things in life do and those of us who still fit, will stay in whatever niche we've carved out. ♡♡♡ the basic premise of women empowering one another and have found it to be exclusive to Posh, & true. ♡♡ Blog on!♡♡♡
