For about 2 years now, I have been selling items on
Poshmark, and at this point I have made
thousands of dollars utilizing the fashion app doing what I love, styling clothes! I originally downloaded the app thinking 'what the heck, I can sell a few things I don't wear anymore and see what happens'. The first thing I uploaded for sale was a floral print kimono and it sold in 24 hours. I was hooked. I still am. The app offers users the ability to buy and sell clothing, jewelry, shoes, and beauty products. Users can buy from other users as well as sell their own new or preloved items. Personally, I started out selling items from my own closet that were literally collecting dust and then progressively moved on to buying to resell. Utilizing the
fashion app has allowed me to become a Fashion Buyer, Stylist, and Boutique Owner! Do you currently have any items in your closet you haven't so much as touched in years? If you have yet to
download the app, give it a try! You can also use my coupon code JULESNICHOLS_ for $5 off of your first purchase!
Here are a few tid bids on how I have made money on
Poshmark:
1) Post clear, well lit, product photos. Keep in mind when posting an item for sale, the item should be something that you yourself would stop scrolling for. When I post new products for sale, I try to keep this in mind! I utilize natural sunlight for most of my photos and then proceed to edit them on my phone with the 'exposure' setting to brighten them up if need be.
2) Post new items for sale frequently. I have had the most success in making sales on weeks I post more items for sale. Mathematically, this makes perfect sense. The more you have available, the more you will sell.
Poshmark suggests 10+ listings to increase sales!
3) Include informative product descriptions. The more information you are able to give buyers about your items, the better. Giving measurements, item condition details, and even a styling/pairing suggestion to items, can help sway buyers to purchase. Items with no information leave potential customers with questions about the item that can deter them from buying.
4) Share fellow Poshers items. Poshmark is a social fashion app. Keep in mind the 'social' aspect in sharing other Poshers items. This is an important thing to do for many reasons: 1) users will, in return share your items too. 2) You never know when someone will buy, including someone you share items for. 3) sharing is caring, the app is a social based platform, the more you share, the more interactive you are as a user, it's only good for your analytics to share.
Happy Poshing! If you have any questions feel free to reach out to me on Instagram
