@frannyzfinds gave me the MOST AMAZING ADVICE to get me started! I encourage all of you to look in her closet. Partly because she has just amazing items for sale, but also because she has exquisite taste and her listings look like they stepped right out of a high fashion magazine. I get such inspiration looking through her listings. I can only imagine what her upcoming party is going to be like โค๏ธ๐๐๐พโค๏ธ

A GREAT IDEA FROM ONE OF MY PFFS๐พ๐พ๐ฅ๐ฅ... Please help me share ladies๐๐๐... @poshtessa @poshjeepgirl @rposen @51twenty @warrior04 @tezza630 @lucksterlw @califoxx @mtnhiker @dinofinder @jltopper

My thoughts: 1. Be POSH COMPLIANT! No perfume, nail polish, anything that requires a plug/batteries. 2. Clear photos, good lighting, no background distractions. 3. SHARE OFTEN! Your closet 3x/day if possible. Share from the main feed and parties. Often you get shares back from sellers who have even more followers than you. 4. Be nice! 5. Converse with other sellers via Share groups & Meet the Posher pages. 6. DO NOT Advertise your closet on other peoples pages. That gets you blocked!

shoplunagrace
1) Share, Share & share! 2) Help new poshers whenever you can! I've been a posh mentor since my first week of selling! 3) Be nice to everyone, No matter what! Some will support you & some will not! Try not to take it personally! 4) When I mail an item to a customer it is guaranteed to put a smile on their face! The item is wrapped like it's their birthday & I always include a handwritten Thank You card! Some think it's frivolous but it has made me a solid 5โญ๏ธseller! 5) Have fun!๐๐
rjrkbythebay
@shoplunagrace YES!! I especially love #4! It is tons of fun to wrap peoples items like a fancy present and imagine how excited they will be to open it! โค๏ธ

Hi, โแฏโโโฐโ! Be careful to manage your time. POSH is truly addicting! There is always one more thing to do. Be careful not to get carried away. Give yourself permission not to get obsessed with the newsfeed. After I became a suggested user, my newsfeed exploded! Trying to keep up was futile! But try I did! Being a bit OCD.... I had to learn to give myself permission to miss things once in awhile! โฌโฐะ
แ แพโฑ โUโแฆ, โแฏโโโฐโ! แถโแฏโ

Thanks for the tag, Frannyโฃ @frannyzfinds ๐
forever_chic
I love this idea!! My advice...1-sharing your own closet and others is crucial. Many of my sales & purchases have been w/ Posher's I know through share groups & know they really care abt the service they provide! 2-communicate with buyers- even if it is to tell them you were unable to ship the item yet but will the next day. 3- Don't get upset by "lowball" offers-I always counter them and often sell the item at the price I counter- which is very close to its listing price!
forever_chic
Also- ! 4- add measurements, info on fabric and wear-just as much detail as you can abt items in your listings, as well S several good clear photos in your listings! Doing measurements up front saves time/ no remeasuring or wastes time answering the question when it's asked. I try to give as much info as I can and respond to questions as soon as I can with the info requested. This has really helped me avoid buyers unhappy w/ an item they receive bc they know exactly what to expect!
forever_chic
Last comment, I promise!! If anyone is looking for a mentor or has more questions no might be able to help answer, I would be more than happy to help with any questions or just with mentoring in general. I never had a mentor and really would have loved to have had one, so feel free to contact me if you would like! ( I hope I'm not stepping on toes offering my willingness and desire to help as s mentor!)
rjrkbythebay
@janimack7 I can see how it could become addicting! Great advice!
rjrkbythebay
@forever_chic oh you have several gems in there! For sure, including as much information as possible upfront will save you time in the end! You are not stepping on anybody's toes by offering to help. Very kind of you!

Hi! Welcome to posh ๐ I started at the very end of September and sold like crazy until I literally had nothing to wear! Haha... I took a break from November to feb and have been moving smoothly... lately it has slowed down a bit. My suggestion is to create beautiful clean photos that show every angle of your items and make sure to share a few times a day! Xoxo
rjrkbythebay
@danicaccs That is great advice! I am juggling my Posh time with my Full-time job. I have the most time late at night but I try not to stay up crazy late!

@rjrkpt It's great! The message is clear, the art is dramatic, yet simple. Great job! I would suggest making it a separate post, though.

@mbeasley68 Here is one helpful post with tons of great tips in the comments.
mbeasley68
@rjrkpt Thank you, Rachel! I appreciate you're help!
rjrkbythebay
@mbeasley68 ๐ My pleasure! The longer I do this, the more I learn! Just today I received my new Dymo label printer which will save me tons of time. No more printer ink, tape, etc. to label my packages. The Dymo 4XL is a thermal label printer - print, PR, stick, done! Ahhhh, so excited to try it. I just mailed my last two packages with labels from my printer, so hopefully all my future sales will get packed up even faster.
mbeasley68
@rjrkpt How exciting!!! That sounds amazing, Iโll have to google. Iโm definitely learning as I go. One think I struggle with is communication. There must be an easier way than what Iโm doing.
mbeasley68
@rjrkpt Listing and packing time is a bit of a challenge for me. Iโm a little slow. Iโm so excited for you about your new label maker. Canโt wait to hear how it goes.
mbeasley68
*thing
rjrkbythebay
@mbeasley68 At the beginning I used to forget to tag people so they would never get my messages until they fell upon them somehow later. When I list items, if I take pictures of my measurements and post them, get fewer questions about my items. It takes an extra minute or two but saves me time in pulling the item back out and re-measuring. It never fails when I forget to post measurements someone always asks! I also try to take a photo of the fabric content and the size tag.
mbeasley68
@rjrkpt Iโd like to tell shoppers โThank you for the kind reviewโ or โThank you for purchasingโ, but if they havenโt commented on their purchased item Iโm not sure where the best place to post that.
mbeasley68
@rjrkpt Whatโs the best way to handle a bad review? I havenโt used the label for heavier packages yet, but someone just bought 3 items and I may need it. Any advise?
mbeasley68
@rjrkpt Iโm excited that you found some mannequins at an auction, how perfect! Iโve thought about getting one because I like the look, but havenโt committed yet.
rjrkbythebay
@mbeasley68 I created a special post for both โThank you for your purchaseโ and โThank you for the 5-Star feedbackโ. Iโll tag you in those to give you some ideas. I use Photofy to create them.
mbeasley68
@rjrkpt Thank you so much, Rachel! I truly appreciate your help!
mbeasley68
@rjrkpt Thank you!!!!
rjrkbythebay
@mbeasley68 Re bad reviews, it depends. The vast majority give 5-stars if listings are accurate, presented nicely, and shipped quickly. I just sold my 300th listing yesterday and have had 2 โ1-Starโ reviews, 1 2-Star, 1 3- Star, a few 4โs. You still get paid regardless of the rating and nobody but you can see them. Only one of these warranted a response and I offered for her to return the item which she turned down. Poshmark says no returns for poor fit (frequent reason for low stars)
rjrkbythebay
@mbeasley68 Regarding the upgraded shipping label, be aware that it costs you money out of your profit. I have only done that once. Someone bought a 10-item bundle ๐ฒ So it was worth the extra three dollar postage!
rjrkbythebay
@mbeasley68 Reach out anytime you have questions! Iโm happy to help whenever I can and if I donโt know the answer I have really smart friends who will help me ๐
mbeasley68
@rjrkpt Yes, and Iโve neglected to calculate that into my prices. Wow, yes a ten item bundle would be worth it! Go you!!!๐๐ท
mbeasley68
@rjrkpt I will! Thank you again for taking the time to answer my questions. Kinda love that itโs coming from an old friend Iโve known for over 40...45? years, but Iโll take the help from your smart friends too!๐
rjrkbythebay
@mbeasley68 โค๏ธ so happy to pass on any knowledge I have! I think you could really excel at this too, since you always liked fashion and you are very artistic. Those are two huge assets on Posh. If you do Pinterest and or Twitter, link those to your Poshmark account so that it draws new followers to your closet. Some people attach their Facebook account too. I donโt because I prefer keeping them separate.
mbeasley68
@rjrkpt Youโre wonderful to pass it on, pay it forward.
Thank you for youโre sweet words of encouragement. I wish I had more time to focus and perfect, but doing my best while balancing my other responsibilities.
mbeasley68
@rjrkpt Like you I prefer to keep FB separate, but think Iโm link to Pinterest. I havenโt ventured in to Instagram and know Iโm behind the times, but cherish the privacy I still have๐
rjrkbythebay
@mbeasley68 I totally understand that!! Especially with recent events on FB:( I too value my personal information and surely wouldnโt want it used improperly. I do have Instagram, but not a wide network of people. I probably donโt use social media to its fullest extent but itโs what Iโm comfortable with.
mbeasley68
@rjrkpt I think Iโll get on Instagram as soon as I get a little more comfortable. How funny is it that I just got excited about cute note cards I found to sent out๐ The best part about this is brightening someoneโs day! You have brightened mine today. Iโm glad we bumped in to each other. Youโre in my thoughts daily, just FYI.
mbeasley68
Iโm sorry, one more question.. do you share each item one by one 3 plus times a day? I thought I saw a share closet option, is that something I should use vs each item one by one?
rjrkbythebay
@mbeasley68 SO true! Every time I eagerly await to hear that they love it - pretty package, sweet card and all. Itโs wonderful, almost like sending people presents every day LOL And thank you ๐๐ผ I can โfeelโ the good energy I receive - itโs what keeps me going! As Iโm sure you can imagine, trying to go on without one of your children along for the ride is crushing. Luckily I have amazing people in my life like you who send those prayers! โค๏ธ
mbeasley68
And any advise about the fact that Iโm purchasing more than Iโm selling? Lol kidding!
rjrkbythebay
@mbeasley68 ๐๐๐ I seriously have to give myself limits or I would do the same thing! There is amazing stuff you can find on Poshmark. Just bought Yankees jacket for $18 ๐ Ready for the Orioles versus Yankees games and bonus this year they also play the Washington nationals!
rjrkbythebay
@mbeasley68 I donโt share my closet daily because I work 12 hour shifts at the hospital. On work days Iam lucky to share it once if at all. On days off, I share my closet in pieces. My closet is organized in sections divided by signs, like this listing or random musings or whatever. I share one group at a time. I always share from the bottom up so they stay in order. I do one share group on Sunday nights. Itโs great for networking. I did more share groups when I was new and needed followers.
mbeasley68
@rjrkpt I feel the same! I canโt wait to see if they are happy! Itโs so much fun!
Rachel, Iโm so glad that you have a great support system. You are so brave and strong for facing each day. So so strong.
mbeasley68
@rjrkpt I just set a limit for myself too! I went a little bonkers for about three weeks๐ฌ ummmmmm anything Yanks is totally worth it. I lost touch with fashion for a long time and am fighting my way back to learn whatโs popular. Thatโs been fun too.
rjrkbythebay
@mbeasley68 When I have extra time I do the vintage share groups but lately I have been too busy. Funny thing is every time I buy something I find my sales go up right after that
rjrkbythebay
@mbeasley68 ๐
mbeasley68
@rjrkpt That all make sense. Iโve thought about having sections, but havenโt made it there yet. Thatโs a great idea to start at the bottom. I donโt know what a share group is yet. I still have some research to do๐ณ
mbeasley68
@rjrkpt I need to pay attention to the share groups. What does the Poshmark community consider Vintage? Ten years old?
Really?! Thatโs interesting!
rjrkbythebay
@mbeasley68 So is share group is an organized time where a large number of potters get together and share each otherโs listings. Thereโs usually a set number agreed-upon so for instance in my Sunday night share group we share eight of each otherโs listings. The person in charge of the group make sure that all closets are compliant with Poshmarkโs rules and that they all share as they are supposed to. It gives your closet a much wider audience and usually results in a sale or two for me.
rjrkbythebay
Sorry that should say Poshers- Apparently my phone doesnโt like that word ha ha
rjrkbythebay
@mbeasley68 Vintage is 20 yrs old or older.
mbeasley68
@rjrkpt hahaaa . Oh I see, thank you for explaining the share groups.

@joannehios One other great post to browse. Many experience sellers giving their advice. โค๏ธ Rachel
rjrkbythebay
Since it looks like you are new to Poshmark, here is some friendly advice (take it or leave it LOL). When you ask a party host to give you a host pick, the most important thing to do is READ their listing! At least 3 of us say โno taggingโ in our listing. Each host may want input differently and usually put in their listing. If youโve never had an HP before, that is important to tell the party host in the comments of their party listing.
rjrkbythebay
@daniellelc30 The message above this tag is for you. It was too long to include the tag in the body of the message. There are a large number of very informative comments in this listing that you might find helpful.

@rjrkbythebay, wonderful comments, Rachel, from you and to you! Lots of good advice. I use my tablet for everything. Can / could / should use the PC? Typing one letter at a time SLOWS ME DOWN on posting... but the tablet takes the photos, which I quickly upload to create the listing ... otherwise it would go from real camera, download to folder in PC, blah blah blah blah
dosojosverdes
it's a challenge to photograph with the tablet.... what do you use? Smart phone? Thanks so much for the time you spend reading and answering questions. It's very much appreciated by all your readers! ry
dosojosverdes
Aaarrrggghhhh, this thing only accepts 500 characters? How can this be? I saw lists upon lists of user names earlier..... ๐๐๐
rjrkbythebay
@dosojosverdes Yes I do 95% of my listings via the smart phone (iPhone). It is my understanding that tablets donโt have as good of a camera as the phones. Are use my phone more often than the laptop, except when I am sharing my whole closet. That is done much more quickly on a laptop.
rjrkbythebay
@dosojosverdes I know! I still have yet to understand how some people can type thousands of letters and others are cut off at 500. Iโm in the 500 groupโฆ Very annoying!

@dosojosverdes - I am moving the conversation here in case anyone else can learn from this situation. In the past, I have had someone buy an item and then come back a few minutes later to say โCan I add an extra item to my order?โ Before I knew better, I would cancel the transaction and make them a bundle to then have them say โI changed my mindโ and not purchase the bundle at all! Thatโs why now I make the bundle, tell them to purchase it, THEN I will cancel the other transaction.
dosojosverdes
Words of wisdom, you were absolutely correct! This buyer strung me along ALL DAY, just to decline...........however, she's bound to buy her first bundle.........I am so discouraged, it feels like this was done on purpose to take advantage of a newbie; to boot, I had made a huge math mistake, which I was able to recall, and re-do............

......I ache all over from such stress... I am too responsible, too eager to please at my own expense. Going to bed, now, 5:22pm and not 3am like I've been doing stuck to the likes and shares. Thanks friend, glad I CRIED OUT to you 4 help! This gal almost puts me in the RED! ๐ญ๐ข๐ญ๐ข๐ญ๐ข๐ญ๐ข๐ญ learning experience. If hubby finds out all this drama, he will put a stop to the whole Posh thing....

@dosojosverdes Those learning experiences help us GROW! Try not to stress. Above all it is important to remember your bottom line. Do not allow any buyer to make you feel like you should sell your items at a loss! Chalk this one up to a learning experience.

@Laurensklarski - Tagging you to give you a tip about selling on Poshmark. Your Nike sneakers that you have posted are worth way more than $10! (barring any unrevealed rips/stains) I highly suggest you raise your price, include the full name of the shoe + colorway, size. Google search Nike plus item number and it will give you tons of detail about the shoe and will help you figure out what they truly are worth by searching through sold listings on Poshmark. If you want help Let me know! Rachel

@laurensklarski - I know it sounds counterintuitive to tell you raise your price and they will sell better, but itโs true! On Poshmark, if items are listed two cheap people think there something wrong with them and donโt purchase them. In your case you should list for a minimum of $25 but I actually think maybe more (I have not looked at comps). People will then offer you less, which obviously you could accept at whatever price point you feel comfortable. ๐ Rachel

#RJRKPOSHTIPS - Pay attention to the calendar. People often get paid on the 1st and 15th of the month. If those dates happen to fall on a weekend, then they usually get paid the business day prior. That would be TODAY, December 14, a Friday payday. MAKE OFFERS TO LIKERS today! You will make sales! ๐ Rachel

This one is chock-full of advice from other well-established sellers. Worth taking the time to read through their responses. @f_springer

#RJRKPOSHTIPS Take your photos against the same background for a consistent and recognizable look. If you take some photos on the carpet, some photos on a wood floor and yet other photos hanging on your closet door it looks haphazard. If the majority of your closets have the same background it makes for a cohesive look which helps your brand.

#RJRKPOSHTIPS It is faster to share on your laptop or tablet than on your phone

#RJRKPOSHTIPS Sharing items from your own closet multiple times a day helps you SELL MORE!
rjrkbythebay
#RJRKPOSHTIPS Listing (even re-listing) items daily will boost your sales.
rjrkbythebay
#RJRKPOSHTIPS Sell what people WANT, not what you like. Search sold listings to see what people are buying on Poshmark.

#RJRKPOSHTIPS Poshmark gives you many ways to learn what is "hot" on this platform - The Poskmark Blog, The Trend Report, Featured brands in Posh Parties, and Showrooms.

#RJRKPOSHTIPS - To for the day. LIST LIST LIST! You canโt sell it if you donโt list it! Even if you only start with one photo, get things listed!!!
New shortcut * List similar * Find a similar item to yours and click โlist similarโ so it preloads the basics of that category.
rjrkbythebay
#RJRKPOSHTIP If you have a few items that have been sitting, try using the Copy Feature (click edit, scroll to bottom). Create a new listing, change up your photos of the originals weโre not your best. Check that it is in the ideal category. Use the max number of keywords in your title so it is easy to find (brand, description, size, color). Save! Then delete your old listing. You will likely see renewed interest now ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ
rjrkbythebay
@aprild1296 If you look through the listing and the comments you will find many helpful tips!
rjrkbythebay
#RJRKPOSHTIP If something in your closet is not selling, be sure your pictures are clear, you are using good keywords in your listing, and you have priced it fairly. If yes to all of these, then I suggest you copy the listing and then delete the old one. You can do this every 60 days and it will show up as a new listing.

@forever_chic I'd love to have you as a mentor! I've been Poshing for awhile but could always use pointers and you see like you know what you're doing. Thank you for sharing your tips too!
rjrkbythebay
@fljaprincess Iโm always happy to help!! Glad you found the tips useful! ๐ Anytime you have a specific question, you can ask here (tag me) or create a bundle to ask. Rachel

I really do need a mentor, my issue is that idk where & wht sites to go on to buy worthy stuff for selling name brands, how mny of them, I've bn just selling my own things, someone pls help me? I was just diagnosed with congestive heart failure and diabetes on top of my other illnesses & some days I cant walk so if I can just do HIGHEND creams & makeup I dnt have to gt around tht much in the house. if anyone can help me pls get bk to me for I really appreciate it more thn u know, thnk u
rjrkbythebay
@joan_moody There are people that do very well selling make up but that is not some thing I have enough experience in to be a good mentor! If you look through my closet you will see that I sell mainly clothing. I would suggest you search through closets that mostly sell makeup to find a good mentor for that. Also you could check out the Posh and Sip or Posh and coffee offerings. Rachel

@rjrkbythebay thank you very much for the advice, I truly appreciate it very much thnk u
