Thank you. I'm really interested in everything you talk about. It's very helpful.

Thank you for all your education videos.

What are some good auction sites and places to buy lots of I have no idea where to look.

Hi Kat! Everything you are changing makes sense! Hey, is there any chance of another meet up in the future like you did in Mt. Dora?

Thank you very much Kat! Your videos are so helpful!

I’ve had a surprising uptick in sales and I have not done anything different. I don’t understand why because I usually do experience a summer slow down but I’ve noticed this summer is busier than usual. I’ve also had more organic sales than usual. I think maybe it’s because of inflation. More people are shopping online, including me. It’s also a hotter summer than usual so I think more people are staying home because of the heat and for financial reasons. It was 118 in Vegas today. I don’t want to be out in that!

I am listing consistently and I ran a coupon. The coupon ended 2 days ago and I've had more sales today than i did in the last 3 days total. 🤷‍♀️😂 I was never a consistent lister and i had a death pile. Ive started listing 10 a day so my store has grown and my death pile is shrinking. Its a good feeling. When do you get to a point where youre selling as much as you list a day? Is there a way to predict that? I know that the items have to be good items and stuff like that. Great video. Its hard to change and I totally emphasize with that. ❤

Love this video! Thanks Kat. I’ve been retraining my brain too and buying higher priced items instead of what I’d usually pick up. Less is more now.

I just took some denim jackets up to my sewing room. It's CHAOS up there. I feel like I have lost where I was heading in what's left of my life. I HATE all this stuff I bought. I keep lowering prices. Nobody wants it. It's preventing me from doing the creative projects I am longing to do. I am so fed up. So yeah, a change is gonna come. It might be a bonfire in the backyard but something is damn well going to happen and soon. 🔥🔥🔥

The biggest change I made is I stopped buying anything without labels or marks and anything that needs repair or has flaws. I have 3500 listings so I don't need more inventory and have no room to store more items. My focus now is on moving 2X product with OTL's and discounted shipping.

I’m tired of selling things for a dream so I have taken off best offers as an experiment.

I do run sales, in different categories at different times according to how heavy my inventory is in a particular area. I also run storewide sales for a couple days, every couple of months. I try to price my items "midpack" all of the time to avoid bringing out the extreme lowballers during sales, and just accept that I may not turn as big a profit on every single item as I would like. Personally, I think this is a small price to pay. As long as I don't lose money, I'm okay with smaller margins in return for more visibility and more gross sales. I have a small store but my sell through rate is quite good so it seems to be working for now. I think the key is do exactly what you're doing right now and just remain flexible. Oh the other thing I do is purchase things that I know I can sell. I don't waste time with things I am not fairly certain I can sell. If I buy a lot, which I do now and then, I buy lots that I know I will list at least 90% of. I stick with things I know and steer clear of stuff that I don't. More is not always better.

Hi Kat, I’m a little confused. So you quit using list perfectly and now you and your mom are listing everything on all the sites individually? Isn’t that a much longer process? Just trying to learn here .

👍😃💗

I had to change because of my illness bacterial pneumonia kidney issues less work more time relaxing enjoying but I am older/ retired with stable pension/ss income as well other money streams interest generating accounts and such,, although I love selling items and getting the feedback that pairs a specific collectible with a collector,,,

I have a wherehouse full of inventory come and buy it,,,

Awesome video

Curious how much you pay your employees per listing? Is that photos + listing? Thank you!!

my change is I am going to seriously flip properties more with my wife yes buildings, houses, lots profits are huge and its not that difficult just bought a building under valued cleaned the weeds sweeping/painting almost ready to have my new agent list it for his hunch to nab a $40,000.00 profit in 6 months,, done it before and realised over $100,000.00 profit,,, closed my ebay as well other online platforms and set up a business LLC

Totally agree on not increasing the price to allow for constant sales. The Rebel Reseller noted ( in a video sometime back) she started passing on the shipping savings and it had increased her sales - so I did it as well and it has increased ours. I don't work at it like y'all do-I'm retired-or was retired-went to work for an Estate Sale Company which I enjoy. But we keep plugging along. 😀 Thank you for sharing your ideas and plans.

I appreciate your candor. All good info for consideration. Among changes I’ve made is to open a second Etsy store so I can employ different marketing strategies for the 2 very different categories of merch. I’ve had the eBay store for several years and I don’t think I’ve ever found my groove. It winds up being a catch all for odd stuff in the lots I bought just to get the good items. Sounds like you know that story well.

All of you just talk a lottttt. Just get to the point

Congrats on 100k. You consistently deliver excellent content! Question about the Photoroom backgrounds on listings. Was that done within List Perfectly or pulled in after creating in Photoroom directly? Thanks, Kat!

Girl your looking so healthy.

You're the best.

Every Monday I run a one week discount based on number of days on the site. It is pretty simple with 7 tiers from 10 to 40 percent every 5%. Takes about 10 minutes to set up every week. The number of items does not matter since it is a bulk process but we do maintain about 1400 items.

🤍🤍🤍

I buy items low, so I always have a great deal of wiggle room. I use calculated shipping and don't pass the discount on, mostly because I get a great deal of best offers made, so I feel like they are happy they don't have issues with the shipping fee. I also tend to price items on the lower end of normal, unless it's a rare item

I include my purchase price, list date and lowest sales price in my sku so running sales and accepting offers are easier. I tend to buy low and sell at the higher end to allow that wiggle room for sales and offers. The goal is to get my listings to 1000 pcs by August and then start cross posting by 4th quarter. It works for now. I agree we always have to be willing to change and test new ideas to continue to grow. In addition, I watch sellers I like, such as you to keep myself educated. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

I sell jewelry only on ebay

Almost got my eBay account suspended for listing a pair of American flag clear shot glasses. 🤔

You always have been my go to for advise. I started up 2 years ago and am eager to keep growing. I am starting today going to offer the shipping discount to my buyers. Hope it works out for both of us. Best! KP

Thanks for the info. I have been gradually listing more items in my Etsy shop. I have a antique mall booth for large items. I also have a eBay store but haven't listed anything in years. It was when they started charging fees on postage. I didn't feel it was fair since I offer free shipping. Learning a lot at Death Pile Destruction.

Very good information! Thanks!

I think it's wonderful that you are so brave to change things as an experiment. You already have a successful business plan to fall back on if you choose. Thanks for sharing your insights as you go through this transformation! Wishing you the best as you move forward.

Yes, been making some adjustment in the last couple of months as well. Have been doing clusters of ending and sell similar almost daily and today just launched a Christmas in July sale. Hopefully this jives the algorithm a little. Sale are happening but definitely a little slower since July 1st. - Thanks again Kat for a wonderful educational and informative video!

I just opened a store since selling for 2 years on EBay it had increased my sales a lot

Thank you for sharing. I have been adding more promotion to some of my listings. I also try to have some high traffic items on my shop. Hopefully that helps too.

Big kudos to you Kat for bagging the inflated pricing/sale thing.

Thanks for posting this video, Kat. We all learn from your content.

I have always passed on the shipping discount . In this economy, reasonable shipping is big for buyers.

Happy Sunday Kat! 🙌🏻

I have definitely been making changes overtime, because my goal was to Declutter my house and now I’m at the crossroads, so all of your videos have been very helpful thank you

I don't have an eBay store, I don't even know really what that is. When I spoke to Customer Service on the phone they said I'm too new at eBAY to consider having a store. I only have 220 items listed. Do you need a store to sell a ton more and make more money? How much merchandise do you need to list before considering this? Thanks. :)

It's always good to shift & change as we grow in business & in knowledge! Thanks for sharing! I have a handful of things listed on Grailed & have sold a very bare minimum, but what I think deters the customer now, is that you can only use their shipping & it is atrocious! You don't weigh, they do it by what the item is. A designer tie I listed cost $9 to ships & coats cost I think $25. Also Etsy, just this past week has up their shipping to a 1 lb minimum. As I was listing, it kept showing me in red that the Lbs section had to have a value. I thought it was a glitch for the day, so just saved them as drafts, but it has continued this whole past week. Just wanted to give you a heads up in case you are listing lighter weight items less than 1 lb.

Good content thank you for sharing. I will be trying the 10 item one platform tip. I found out we can list 2k items a month if you have 1k isbn items. The title sucks but it sure helps get will fix it. I wish we could save a template to express lister to speed up the listings for the annoying item specifics.

Thanks for explaining the savings on shipping.

Kat! Great sales!!! Do you have a technique sending offers? I have absolutely no luck with sending offers 😊

I just thrifted my daughter an Anne Klein dress, with tag over a hundred dollars. Got it for a dollar.

Go Kat, Go! ❤
