00:00:00	00:00:03	all right so i'm going to run you
00:00:01	00:00:06	through some examples of how to start
00:00:03	00:00:07	listing for beginners hot selling
00:00:06	00:00:09	products
00:00:07	00:00:10	to poshmark so that you can drop ship
00:00:09	00:00:12	them okay
00:00:10	00:00:13	now keep in mind with poshmark
00:00:12	00:00:15	specifically and we're going to tok
00:00:13	00:00:16	about my car here in a second as well
00:00:15	00:00:18	it's slightly different
00:00:16	00:00:20	but same overall strategy essentially as
00:00:18	00:00:22	it would be on amazon as it would be on
00:00:20	00:00:23	ebay as it would be on facebook
00:00:22	00:00:25	marketplace
00:00:23	00:00:27	as well right so let's go over the
00:00:25	00:00:29	poshmark example here
00:00:27	00:00:31	in the beginning right so on poshmark
00:00:29	00:00:31	specifically the main thing that's going
00:00:31	00:00:34	to sell well
00:00:31	00:00:35	is going to be clothing clothing is the
00:00:34	00:00:37	main thing that sells on poshmark it's
00:00:35	00:00:38	men's clothes it's women's clothes
00:00:37	00:00:41	more so it's women's clothes because a
00:00:38	00:00:42	lot more women shop on poshmark but they
00:00:41	00:00:45	both do
00:00:42	00:00:47	sell well right uh and also you can list
00:00:45	00:00:49	home goods now so anything pretty much
00:00:47	00:00:49	in the home category you can also list
00:00:49	00:00:52	uh
00:00:49	00:00:55	kids clothing kids toys stuff like that
00:00:52	00:00:56	and uh pets as well so keep in mind that
00:00:55	00:00:58	any of those things you can list the
00:00:56	00:01:00	poshmark now it's not
00:00:58	00:01:02	just close but because this kind of
00:01:00	00:01:03	tutorial is geared towards beginners and
00:01:02	00:01:05	right now we're specifically toking
00:01:03	00:01:06	about poshmark i'm going to give you two
00:01:05	00:01:08	examples of
00:01:06	00:01:10	beginner methods that you can find to
00:01:08	00:01:12	start listing stuff on poshmark so that
00:01:10	00:01:13	you can make money okay
00:01:12	00:01:15	so we're going to use the example of
00:01:13	00:01:16	clothing and we're going to go women's
00:01:15	00:01:18	clothing here because
00:01:16	00:01:19	in my experience it sells the best on
00:01:18	00:01:22	poshmark although
00:01:19	00:01:24	like i did touch on like 30 seconds ago
00:01:22	00:01:26	those are not the only things that you
00:01:24	00:01:28	can sell you can sell pet products
00:01:26	00:01:30	you can sell kids toys you can sell uh
00:01:28	00:01:32	home decor all that stuff
00:01:30	00:01:34	also sells well on poshmark if you find
00:01:32	00:01:35	a good product okay
00:01:34	00:01:37	so there's many different ways to
00:01:35	00:01:39	approach finding hot selling products
00:01:37	00:01:41	obviously in a perfect world you want to
00:01:39	00:01:43	find an obscure supplier that not many
00:01:41	00:01:45	other people are sourcing from
00:01:43	00:01:47	so you're not competing in a saturated
00:01:45	00:01:48	market with a lot of the same products
00:01:47	00:01:49	right
00:01:48	00:01:51	so you can do a number of different
00:01:49	00:01:52	things you can look for trending items
00:01:51	00:01:54	you can go to like
00:01:52	00:01:56	uh you know google trends you can look
00:01:54	00:01:58	uh to see like movers and shakers on
00:01:56	00:02:00	amazon stuff like that
00:01:58	00:02:02	also the time of year is going to be
00:02:00	00:02:05	very very relevant right so
00:02:02	00:02:07	right now it is uh july and so in july
00:02:05	00:02:09	obviously things that are like summary
00:02:07	00:02:11	like bathing suits or or you know
00:02:09	00:02:13	cover-ups or anything like that
00:02:11	00:02:14	is gonna sell a lot better than you know
00:02:13	00:02:17	winter clothes right
00:02:14	00:02:19	although as we approach winter or as it
00:02:17	00:02:20	gets like later on into fall then like
00:02:19	00:02:22	jackets and things like that
00:02:20	00:02:24	snow pants stuff like that is gonna sell
00:02:22	00:02:26	better right so the time of year
00:02:24	00:02:28	the location all that stuff matters keep
00:02:26	00:02:29	that in mind but just to give you some
00:02:28	00:02:31	examples
00:02:29	00:02:33	to kind of get you thinking here what i
00:02:31	00:02:34	am right here is i'm in bestsellers on
00:02:33	00:02:35	amazon and obviously i have walmart
00:02:34	00:02:36	pulled up and i'm going to pull up some
00:02:35	00:02:38	categories here
00:02:36	00:02:41	and just start listing with you right
00:02:38	00:02:43	and these are good beginner places to
00:02:41	00:02:44	start for a lot of people but you don't
00:02:43	00:02:46	just want to list from here because then
00:02:44	00:02:48	everybody goes here
00:02:46	00:02:49	everybody lists from the same exact top
00:02:48	00:02:51	selling products and you're just
00:02:49	00:02:53	entering a saturated market and it's
00:02:51	00:02:54	going to be tough right
00:02:53	00:02:56	so for example let's just say
00:02:54	00:02:57	hypothetikally this was a good idea
00:02:56	00:02:58	we're going to go to clothing shoes and
00:02:57	00:03:00	jewelry
00:02:58	00:03:02	then you want to maybe pick one of these
00:03:00	00:03:05	watches tend to sell well
00:03:02	00:03:06	on poshmark and also you can upsell them
00:03:05	00:03:07	for you know pretty significantly when
00:03:06	00:03:10	you're drop shipping
00:03:07	00:03:10	uh so let's go to like where is it um
00:03:10	00:03:14	let's go
00:03:10	00:03:17	women and we'll go bathing suits
00:03:14	00:03:18	uh i'm not seeing any bathing suits you
00:03:17	00:03:20	could also list watches you could also
00:03:18	00:03:21	list like handbags and wallets or
00:03:20	00:03:24	anything like that so let's just type in
00:03:21	00:03:27	like women's
00:03:24	00:03:29	bathing suit in the search bar and we'll
00:03:27	00:03:31	see what pops up top right
00:03:29	00:03:31	so you can start listing any number of
00:03:31	00:03:33	these all right so let's say
00:03:31	00:03:35	hypothetikally i wanted to list this one
00:03:33	00:03:37	and i wanted to list this one well the
00:03:35	00:03:38	same exact way that you list on facebook
00:03:37	00:03:40	marketplace
00:03:38	00:03:42	with z drop is going to be the same
00:03:40	00:03:43	exact way that you list onto poshmark
00:03:42	00:03:45	right
00:03:43	00:03:46	not many things change here so what i'm
00:03:45	00:03:48	going to do
00:03:46	00:03:50	is i don't really need to select the
00:03:48	00:03:52	size but i do want to see like
00:03:50	00:03:53	that all the sizes are in stok here so
00:03:52	00:03:55	for example like if you were going to
00:03:53	00:03:56	list the extra small the small the
00:03:55	00:03:58	medium the large the xl
00:03:56	00:04:00	and the 2x you want to make sure that
00:03:58	00:04:01	all these are actually in stok
00:04:00	00:04:03	and then you also want to look at the
00:04:01	00:04:05	price right here too
00:04:03	00:04:06	and then list whichever one is the
00:04:05	00:04:08	highest price right so for example the
00:04:06	00:04:11	extra small is 33
00:04:08	00:04:12	bucks if you go to like the extra large
00:04:11	00:04:14	okay it's the same price we go to like
00:04:12	00:04:15	the medium
00:04:14	00:04:17	okay it's the same price right so you
00:04:15	00:04:19	want to check them all and then list the
00:04:17	00:04:21	highest price quite often one will be
00:04:19	00:04:21	like a dollar or two more and then you
00:04:21	00:04:24	want to base
00:04:21	00:04:25	all of your listing off of that higher
00:04:24	00:04:27	price not the lowest
00:04:25	00:04:29	one right because you don't want to be
00:04:27	00:04:30	uh you know losing money on any of these
00:04:29	00:04:32	so if you list high
00:04:30	00:04:34	off the highest price it'll give you the
00:04:32	00:04:37	safest way to list essentially
00:04:34	00:04:38	uh and make that money right so same
00:04:37	00:04:39	thing here right instead of copying the
00:04:38	00:04:42	facebook with z
00:04:39	00:04:43	drop you're gonna copy the poshmark and
00:04:42	00:04:44	it's just gonna pull up the poshmark
00:04:43	00:04:45	listing
00:04:44	00:04:48	it's gonna input the pictures into
00:04:45	00:04:49	poshmark and then you know the title in
00:04:48	00:04:50	the description as well and then you
00:04:49	00:04:52	pretty much
00:04:50	00:04:54	also hit the paste and then you pretty
00:04:52	00:04:56	much need to just uh you know kind of
00:04:54	00:04:57	fill out the listing make sure it looks
00:04:56	00:04:59	half decent here
00:04:57	00:05:00	so here we are on the poshmark listing
00:04:59	00:05:02	right now right
00:05:00	00:05:03	uh and it's got all the pictures in
00:05:02	00:05:05	there it actually looks like it added
00:05:03	00:05:07	them twice but that's totally fine
00:05:05	00:05:09	uh you were only limited to character
00:05:07	00:05:11	wise on your title and your description
00:05:09	00:05:12	unlike facebook marketplace you can list
00:05:11	00:05:13	a little bit more
00:05:12	00:05:15	uh even though your title and
00:05:13	00:05:16	description is limited there uh you get
00:05:15	00:05:18	a lot more
00:05:16	00:05:20	space to put things so you need to
00:05:18	00:05:22	delete 29 characters here
00:05:20	00:05:24	specifically uh for this title but i
00:05:22	00:05:25	forget the exact
00:05:24	00:05:26	amount that you're allowed to have but i
00:05:25	00:05:28	would just make this look good right
00:05:26	00:05:32	like women's
00:05:28	00:05:36	vintage swimsuit two-piece retro
00:05:32	00:05:38	high-waist bikini and see if that fits
00:05:36	00:05:40	okay we still need to do more so let's
00:05:38	00:05:42	go like right two-piece high-waist
00:05:40	00:05:45	bikini there we go
00:05:42	00:05:46	now here you're still 260 uh characters
00:05:45	00:05:49	over as well so again we're just gonna
00:05:46	00:05:50	delete some of these things delete some
00:05:49	00:05:51	of these things
00:05:50	00:05:53	and you really need to kind of decide
00:05:51	00:05:56	like are you into volume
00:05:53	00:05:56	or are you into quality of listings or a
00:05:56	00:05:58	mix of both
00:05:56	00:06:00	both of them work well i wouldn't
00:05:58	00:06:02	necessarily say like you know just go
00:06:00	00:06:03	quantity or just go quality and go super
00:06:02	00:06:04	slow
00:06:03	00:06:06	you want to do a mix of both you want
00:06:04	00:06:07	quality listings but you want to get
00:06:06	00:06:09	them up as fast as possible and
00:06:07	00:06:10	obviously once you get into the groove
00:06:09	00:06:11	you start listing
00:06:10	00:06:13	and you get like a few in you'll get a
00:06:11	00:06:15	lot faster and you'll kind of develop a
00:06:13	00:06:16	system so it works very very easily
00:06:15	00:06:18	right
00:06:16	00:06:20	so here we are right now on this now
00:06:18	00:06:21	category we're going to categorize
00:06:20	00:06:23	it so again here we have the example of
00:06:21	00:06:23	home if you're listing in the home
00:06:23	00:06:25	category
00:06:23	00:06:26	the example of pets the example of kids
00:06:25	00:06:27	and then obviously men's and women's
00:06:26	00:06:31	clothes
00:06:27	00:06:35	this is men or a women's swimsuit
00:06:31	00:06:37	where are we at here swim
00:06:35	00:06:39	and we're gonna say that this is a
00:06:37	00:06:41	bikini because it's not a one-piece
00:06:39	00:06:43	and it's not a cover-up so it's a
00:06:41	00:06:45	women's bikini right
00:06:43	00:06:46	now quantity we're gonna have multiple
00:06:45	00:06:48	quantity and multiple sizes right so
00:06:46	00:06:50	what sizes are available for this
00:06:48	00:06:52	specific one well it was
00:06:50	00:06:54	extra small small medium large and xl so
00:06:52	00:06:56	extra small all the way to 2x
00:06:54	00:06:58	and again you're going to want to make
00:06:56	00:07:00	sure like if you didn't originally
00:06:58	00:07:02	you want to make sure that all these
00:07:00	00:07:03	sizes are actually available because you
00:07:02	00:07:04	don't want to list the size that's
00:07:03	00:07:06	unavailable to you
00:07:04	00:07:08	and it does look like the majority of
00:07:06	00:07:11	them are available so extra small small
00:07:08	00:07:12	medium large xl and you could add the 2x
00:07:11	00:07:13	if you wanted to go into plus size i'm
00:07:12	00:07:15	just going to leave it like this for the
00:07:13	00:07:16	sake of showing you okay
00:07:15	00:07:19	now i generally come in and just put
00:07:16	00:07:20	these all ten um you can go five you can
00:07:19	00:07:21	go three
00:07:20	00:07:22	i would put them to a number
00:07:21	00:07:24	specifically where like if you start
00:07:22	00:07:25	getting orders you don't have to
00:07:24	00:07:28	constantly go back and change them
00:07:25	00:07:29	although you can always change them even
00:07:28	00:07:30	after you get orders so it's not a big
00:07:29	00:07:31	deal
00:07:30	00:07:33	um but don't go overboard don't put
00:07:31	00:07:34	these to like a hundred or like 50 right
00:07:33	00:07:36	from the get-go
00:07:34	00:07:38	start small then you can adjust them as
00:07:36	00:07:39	you get sales right
00:07:38	00:07:41	yes it has tags because it's new yes add
00:07:39	00:07:42	it to your petite because it's new
00:07:41	00:07:44	i don't really ever worry about putting
00:07:42	00:07:45	the brand in it doesn't really matter to
00:07:44	00:07:47	me honestly i don't really ever worry
00:07:45	00:07:48	about putting the colors in it doesn't
00:07:47	00:07:49	really matter to me
00:07:48	00:07:51	although you can so like you could say
00:07:49	00:07:53	this is green and white if you really
00:07:51	00:07:55	wanted to
00:07:53	00:07:56	i don't find that that matters too too
00:07:55	00:07:57	much i feel like people
00:07:56	00:07:59	kind of go off the description the title
00:07:57	00:08:01	and mainly the pictures
00:07:59	00:08:03	um but some of these other specs do kind
00:08:01	00:08:05	of matter then right here the
00:08:03	00:08:06	the tags so you can put three tags in on
00:08:05	00:08:08	facebook or on
00:08:06	00:08:09	on poshmark excuse me so we're gonna go
00:08:08	00:08:11	like bikini
00:08:09	00:08:13	we'll say like swim suit and we'll save
00:08:11	00:08:15	bathing suit
00:08:13	00:08:16	as our three tags okay now this is just
00:08:15	00:08:18	the way i approach it some people will
00:08:16	00:08:21	put the original price like super high
00:08:18	00:08:22	and then discount it to like you know 85
00:08:21	00:08:24	or something to make it look like it's
00:08:22	00:08:25	you know a timely sale
00:08:24	00:08:27	i don't think that that looks good i
00:08:25	00:08:28	don't like that and so what i like to do
00:08:27	00:08:30	is i'll put the original price to zero i
00:08:28	00:08:31	think it looks a lot more flush and
00:08:30	00:08:32	professional
00:08:31	00:08:35	uh and then i'll put the listing price
00:08:32	00:08:38	to whatever i decide to okay
00:08:35	00:08:40	now the key here is you're sourcing this
00:08:38	00:08:41	depending on if your tax exempt you're
00:08:40	00:08:43	going to be paying taxes right or maybe
00:08:41	00:08:44	you won't be okay so if you're tax
00:08:43	00:08:46	exempt it's a lot easier to obviously
00:08:44	00:08:49	judge this right here right
00:08:46	00:08:50	if you are not tax exempt then you're
00:08:49	00:08:52	going to have to pay taxes on this
00:08:50	00:08:53	depending on the state now the highest
00:08:52	00:08:56	state i believe
00:08:53	00:08:57	is california i think with nine percent
00:08:56	00:08:59	sales tax or something like that
00:08:57	00:09:01	so a rule of thumb that i always like to
00:08:59	00:09:04	have is just multiply it by ten right
00:09:01	00:09:04	sorry multiply it by point one which is
00:09:04	00:09:07	ten percent
00:09:04	00:09:08	because it's really easy to calculate if
00:09:07	00:09:09	you round up and i'll show you that here
00:09:08	00:09:12	in a second
00:09:09	00:09:13	and that covers all of your different
00:09:12	00:09:15	you know states so
00:09:13	00:09:16	god forbid like you go to cali you're
00:09:15	00:09:17	paying that nine percent you already
00:09:16	00:09:19	calculated that into your
00:09:17	00:09:21	your what you're paying to source it
00:09:19	00:09:23	right and if you're going somewhere else
00:09:21	00:09:26	that's cheaper or doesn't have sales tax
00:09:23	00:09:27	for example like florida or um i think
00:09:26	00:09:29	what is it oregon might be another one
00:09:27	00:09:30	or something like that
00:09:29	00:09:31	or any of the states that don't have
00:09:30	00:09:32	sales tax where you have to pay it then
00:09:31	00:09:34	you know
00:09:32	00:09:35	even more benefit you're just making a
00:09:34	00:09:37	higher margin right so
00:09:35	00:09:40	this is easy if we round this up it's
00:09:37	00:09:43	32.99 and we round it up to 33
00:09:40	00:09:44	well 33 dollars what's 10 of that it's
00:09:43	00:09:45	3.33
00:09:44	00:09:47	right it's really really easy you just
00:09:45	00:09:49	move the decimal point over or you can
00:09:47	00:09:50	just have a calculator out if you really
00:09:49	00:09:53	want to and multiply it
00:09:50	00:09:55	by 0.10 or 10 of it right so we can
00:09:53	00:09:59	assume that if i'm paying 10
00:09:55	00:09:59	sales tax here and i am obviously uh tax
00:09:59	00:10:02	exempt
00:09:59	00:10:03	on amazon but if i was paying sales tax
00:10:02	00:10:05	here
00:10:03	00:10:07	for i would just assume 10 right so i
00:10:05	00:10:10	round this up i'm paying 33
00:10:07	00:10:14	plus another 3.33 so my
00:10:10	00:10:16	estimated cost here would be 36.33
00:10:14	00:10:19	right so anywhere in the country i can
00:10:16	00:10:21	have the ship for 36.33 if i can make
00:10:19	00:10:23	3633 on it i'm gonna be
00:10:21	00:10:25	at least break even the more i make then
00:10:23	00:10:27	the prop the more profitable i am right
00:10:25	00:10:28	so right here it's going to calculate
00:10:27	00:10:30	what you're making so this needs to be
00:10:28	00:10:33	whatever you're comfortable making
00:10:30	00:10:35	over 36 33 and then you'll know that
00:10:33	00:10:36	you're obviously profitable right so you
00:10:35	00:10:39	can play around with these numbers here
00:10:36	00:10:41	we can go 45 but that might be too low
00:10:39	00:10:43	now i'm making 36 or then i might lose
00:10:41	00:10:44	33 cents or it might barely break even
00:10:43	00:10:46	right so you want to take this little
00:10:44	00:10:50	higher do we want to go 55
00:10:46	00:10:52	not 455 that would be quite the sale 55
00:10:50	00:10:54	okay so then you're making 44 that's a
00:10:52	00:10:55	pretty solid one i like to list a little
00:10:54	00:10:57	bit high so honestly i might even go
00:10:55	00:11:00	like 65 or 59
00:10:57	00:11:00	and then accumulate likes on my listings
00:11:00	00:11:03	and then make
00:11:00	00:11:04	likes to offers okay now if you need any
00:11:03	00:11:07	if you have any questions on this
00:11:04	00:11:08	i used to teach a lot of poshmark when i
00:11:07	00:11:09	did a lot of reselling and i still sell
00:11:08	00:11:12	on poshmark
00:11:09	00:11:14	reselling wise but i also drop ship so
00:11:12	00:11:16	if you need more you know clarification
00:11:14	00:11:17	on what i'm toking about with like
00:11:16	00:11:19	accumulating likes and and
00:11:17	00:11:21	kind of driving more sales by using
00:11:19	00:11:22	automation software which is something i
00:11:21	00:11:24	highly recommend that you use
00:11:22	00:11:26	on poshmark like this simple posture
00:11:24	00:11:27	right here or if you need to
00:11:26	00:11:29	you know learn how to accumulate likes
00:11:27	00:11:30	and then make offers to likers to drive
00:11:29	00:11:33	sales and kind of simulate
00:11:30	00:11:34	urgency i have an entire poshmark
00:11:33	00:11:35	playlist on this channel that you can
00:11:34	00:11:37	check out 100 free
00:11:35	00:11:38	and you can learn all that stuff there
00:11:37	00:11:39	right so you can list this low if you
00:11:38	00:11:41	want
00:11:39	00:11:42	i would tend to list this high because i
00:11:41	00:11:44	kind of like listing high
00:11:42	00:11:45	if you get sales great if not you can
00:11:44	00:11:46	always accumulate likes and then make
00:11:45	00:11:48	offers to likers
00:11:46	00:11:50	it tends to work very very well because
00:11:48	00:11:51	then it's kind of like a timed sale and
00:11:50	00:11:53	people kind of get that
00:11:51	00:11:55	simulated urgency and they buy at a
00:11:53	00:11:56	higher price point and you make a higher
00:11:55	00:11:58	profit margin right
00:11:56	00:12:01	so hypothetikally let's say somebody
00:11:58	00:12:04	would buy from this listing at 65
00:12:01	00:12:05	uh then i would make 52 dollars on this
00:12:04	00:12:07	and then when i sourced it
00:12:05	00:12:08	for 36 well then it's like i don't even
00:12:07	00:12:11	know what that is like 15
00:12:08	00:12:12	16 something dollar profit margin right
00:12:11	00:12:13	so then i would go ahead and i would
00:12:12	00:12:15	list this okay
00:12:13	00:12:17	now another little caveat with poshmark
00:12:15	00:12:18	that i didn't specifically tok about in
00:12:17	00:12:22	this video but i've covered in
00:12:18	00:12:24	other videos is that you cannot actually
00:12:22	00:12:26	use your own label and your own tracking
00:12:24	00:12:27	number when you're selling on poshmark
00:12:26	00:12:29	right so that
00:12:27	00:12:31	presents a challenge specifically when
00:12:29	00:12:33	you're drop shipping because you have to
00:12:31	00:12:33	use the poshmark label and the poshmark
00:12:33	00:12:36	label
00:12:33	00:12:37	needs to be shipped to the customer or
00:12:36	00:12:38	you won't get credit for the sale and
00:12:37	00:12:40	you won't get paid out right
00:12:38	00:12:41	so there's two main ways to approach it
00:12:40	00:12:43	you can a and i've covered this
00:12:41	00:12:45	in depth in another video uh you can go
00:12:43	00:12:46	ahead and find it on this channel i will
00:12:45	00:12:48	try to link it all the way down at the
00:12:46	00:12:49	bottom of the description
00:12:48	00:12:51	if you want to check it out right after
00:12:49	00:12:52	this video there's two main ways to
00:12:51	00:12:54	approach it basically
00:12:52	00:12:56	in short you can order it to yourself
00:12:54	00:12:56	first because a lot of these are prime
00:12:56	00:12:58	so
00:12:56	00:13:00	it's gonna come to you in like a day or
00:12:58	00:13:03	two right and then you can ship it out
00:13:00	00:13:04	in your own poshmark uh you know box and
00:13:03	00:13:07	you can get
00:13:04	00:13:11	free us postage or free usps priority
00:13:07	00:13:12	mailers and free usps boxes on usps.com
00:13:11	00:13:14	literally sent to your house for free
00:13:12	00:13:15	and then you can use them for free and
00:13:14	00:13:17	it doesn't cost you anything
00:13:15	00:13:18	uh you know obviously to package and
00:13:17	00:13:20	ship your stuff up out right because
00:13:18	00:13:23	poshmark uses priority mail
00:13:20	00:13:25	uh so that's the one way that you can do
00:13:23	00:13:27	it you can order it to yourself first if
00:13:25	00:13:29	it's coming quickly and it's prime and
00:13:27	00:13:30	then ship it out on poshmark on poshmark
00:13:29	00:13:31	you have three days to initiate the
00:13:30	00:13:33	shipment
00:13:31	00:13:34	and quite often because i've kind of you
00:13:33	00:13:36	know teetered that line often
00:13:34	00:13:38	quite often they give you like four to
00:13:36	00:13:39	five days before they even kind of you
00:13:38	00:13:41	know get on you about it okay
00:13:39	00:13:43	so that's one way that you can handle it
00:13:41	00:13:45	although that does present a challenge
00:13:43	00:13:46	in you know managing a lot of listings
00:13:45	00:13:48	managing a lot of coming and going
00:13:46	00:13:50	of certain things so an easier way that
00:13:48	00:13:52	i've been doing that does work
00:13:50	00:13:54	very very well is you can actually just
00:13:52	00:13:55	order this and have it shipped to your
00:13:54	00:13:57	customer
00:13:55	00:13:58	keep track of it and then also ship the
00:13:57	00:14:00	poshmark label
00:13:58	00:14:02	with a thank you note of some kind it'd
00:14:00	00:14:04	be like thank you for ordering
00:14:02	00:14:06	the you know the swimsuit i really hope
00:14:04	00:14:07	you like it um it's a new product we're
00:14:06	00:14:09	testing out so i'd love to hear your
00:14:07	00:14:10	feedback from it by now you should have
00:14:09	00:14:12	received the product i'd love to hear
00:14:10	00:14:13	your feedback if you message me whatever
00:14:12	00:14:15	you can come up with a thank you note
00:14:13	00:14:16	you know i literally just kind of ramble
00:14:15	00:14:18	that off the top of my head
00:14:16	00:14:20	but then send the poshmark label with a
00:14:18	00:14:22	thank you note so that the poshmark
00:14:20	00:14:23	label still gets delivered to the
00:14:22	00:14:25	customer
00:14:23	00:14:27	uh and then you also ship this product
00:14:25	00:14:28	to the customer in a different package
00:14:27	00:14:29	right
00:14:28	00:14:31	and so both of those work very very well
00:14:29	00:14:33	i don't want to cover it too much here
00:14:31	00:14:34	because i spent an entire video covering
00:14:33	00:14:35	the differences of it how you can
00:14:34	00:14:37	execute it
00:14:35	00:14:38	like i said i'll try to actually put it
00:14:37	00:14:40	at the bottom of the description
00:14:38	00:14:42	but that's basically how you do it on
00:14:40	00:14:44	poshmark okay
00:14:42	00:14:45	now let's for an example let's say that
00:14:44	00:14:47	we wanted to list this one right so
00:14:45	00:14:49	first thing again is you want to check
00:14:47	00:14:50	to see that all these sizes are in stok
00:14:49	00:14:51	let's assume that they're all in stok
00:14:50	00:14:52	here because i don't want to waste your
00:14:51	00:14:53	time
00:14:52	00:14:56	then again you're just going to copy it
00:14:53	00:14:58	to poshmark listed to poshmark go
00:14:56	00:14:59	through the same process that i just did
00:14:58	00:15:01	and then you just move down the list
00:14:59	00:15:02	right you can go into like all women's
00:15:01	00:15:04	bathing suits on amazon
00:15:02	00:15:05	or you can even go over to walmart and
00:15:04	00:15:07	go to like um
00:15:05	00:15:09	same thing like you can list sports and
00:15:07	00:15:10	outdoors and listed in the home category
00:15:09	00:15:13	you can list
00:15:10	00:15:13	um you know beauty listed into women's
00:15:13	00:15:16	like uh
00:15:13	00:15:17	makeup category on poshmark you can list
00:15:16	00:15:19	it into like
00:15:17	00:15:20	patio and garden listed again in the
00:15:19	00:15:23	home category you can list baby
00:15:20	00:15:23	and then list it under kids you can go
00:15:23	00:15:26	go you can
00:15:23	00:15:29	search for um you know kids toys or kids
00:15:26	00:15:30	games enlisted under kids toys
00:15:29	00:15:32	all these things are possibilities for
00:15:30	00:15:34	you and you don't just have to use
00:15:32	00:15:36	amazon and walmart although although i'm
00:15:34	00:15:38	using them as examples because i know
00:15:36	00:15:39	the majority of you will default to
00:15:38	00:15:41	these okay so
00:15:39	00:15:42	clothing shoes and accessories again if
00:15:41	00:15:44	we wanted to do bathing suits we come
00:15:42	00:15:46	into clothing shoes and accessories
00:15:44	00:15:48	women's and then we find like bathing
00:15:46	00:15:50	suits
00:15:48	00:15:51	um why am i not seeing it oh swimwear
00:15:50	00:15:53	there we go
00:15:51	00:15:55	and then again same thing with walmart
00:15:53	00:15:57	you just list from here okay and the
00:15:55	00:15:59	benefit of using a software like z drop
00:15:57	00:15:59	to do this i will link c drop in the
00:15:59	00:16:01	description
00:15:59	00:16:03	with like a dollar off discount or
00:16:01	00:16:05	whatever if you guys want to grab it
00:16:03	00:16:06	the benefit of using z drop like this is
00:16:05	00:16:08	it also is going to store
00:16:06	00:16:09	all your products so if somebody were to
00:16:08	00:16:11	come in and order
00:16:09	00:16:13	this from poshmark right well then you
00:16:11	00:16:15	just go to z drop you search for this
00:16:13	00:16:16	you know a few keywords in the title and
00:16:15	00:16:18	you're able to find that listing
00:16:16	00:16:20	find that url and figure out where you
00:16:18	00:16:22	actually sourced it from and where you
00:16:20	00:16:24	want to list it right
00:16:22	00:16:26	so that's kind of how you approach it
00:16:24	00:16:27	that's how you list on a poshmark and
00:16:26	00:16:28	those are the different things that you
00:16:27	00:16:30	can kind of consider
00:16:28	00:16:32	when listing on poshmark remember
00:16:30	00:16:34	trending items obscure suppliers you can
00:16:32	00:16:35	also list from bestsellers and movers
00:16:34	00:16:36	and shakers
00:16:35	00:16:38	although keep in mind a lot of people
00:16:36	00:16:40	are gonna do that uh and the time of
00:16:38	00:16:42	year matters a lot right like
00:16:40	00:16:43	right now a lot of people are searching
00:16:42	00:16:46	for bathing suits or like
00:16:43	00:16:47	you know summer wear and like shorts and
00:16:46	00:16:49	stuff like that tank tops
00:16:47	00:16:51	you know anything like that sandals
00:16:49	00:16:53	right well as we move
00:16:51	00:16:54	into winter or fall it's going to be
00:16:53	00:16:55	completely different right so keep in
00:16:54	00:16:57	mind those things as well
00:16:55	00:16:59	also trends so for example one of the
00:16:57	00:17:00	things that sold believe it or not super
00:16:59	00:17:02	well for me
00:17:00	00:17:04	um in the past was when donald trump was
00:17:02	00:17:05	in office i used to sell like a squeeze
00:17:04	00:17:07	um
00:17:05	00:17:08	like stress ball that was shaped like
00:17:07	00:17:09	donald trump and it was hilarious
00:17:08	00:17:11	because like people would just buy it
00:17:09	00:17:12	off the shelves all the time
00:17:11	00:17:15	and it would sell for me like multiple
00:17:12	00:17:17	times a day even on poshmark okay
00:17:15	00:17:18	so trends like that even if it's not
00:17:17	00:17:19	clothing you can still obviously add
00:17:18	00:17:21	them
00:17:19	00:17:22	in right now one more thing i want to
00:17:21	00:17:24	tok about really briefly
00:17:22	00:17:26	is uh listening to mercar the only
00:17:24	00:17:27	difference with listening to poshmark
00:17:26	00:17:28	like i said
00:17:27	00:17:30	is the way that you have to actually
00:17:28	00:17:32	ship it out right so you have to use the
00:17:30	00:17:34	tracking label like we've toked about
00:17:32	00:17:35	the poshmark tracking label and i've
00:17:34	00:17:37	already covered uh
00:17:35	00:17:38	both a little bit briefly in this video
00:17:37	00:17:40	as well as in the
00:17:38	00:17:41	video at the bottom of the description
00:17:40	00:17:42	how to actually approach that in the two
00:17:41	00:17:44	different ways right
00:17:42	00:17:46	well on mercari the only thing that's
00:17:44	00:17:47	different is so let's go back to amazon
00:17:46	00:17:48	for example
00:17:47	00:17:50	the only thing that's different on
00:17:48	00:17:51	mercari is you can list pretty much
00:17:50	00:17:55	anything on mercari
00:17:51	00:17:56	except uh supplements with a uh an
00:17:55	00:17:58	expiration date right
00:17:56	00:18:00	so that said and there's also some other
00:17:58	00:18:01	like miscellaneous things you're not
00:18:00	00:18:03	allowed to list on mercari like
00:18:01	00:18:05	fake money and stuff like that but like
00:18:03	00:18:05	you'll find that out you know as you do
00:18:05	00:18:08	it
00:18:05	00:18:09	um it's not really an issue right the
00:18:08	00:18:11	only other thing that
00:18:09	00:18:12	you know changes with mercari is you
00:18:11	00:18:14	need to add a review
00:18:12	00:18:16	image of the picture because in their
00:18:14	00:18:18	terms of service they do say that you
00:18:16	00:18:20	all of your images can't be stok photos
00:18:18	00:18:22	right and so if you're pulling something
00:18:20	00:18:25	from an amazon listing or from a walmart
00:18:22	00:18:27	listing or from a listing online
00:18:25	00:18:28	all of your images are going to be stok
00:18:27	00:18:30	photos right and they're not going to
00:18:28	00:18:31	catch you every single time but you just
00:18:30	00:18:33	you don't want to build a store like
00:18:31	00:18:34	that where you're kind of playing and
00:18:33	00:18:36	teetering online
00:18:34	00:18:37	so what you want to do then is you want
00:18:36	00:18:38	to find something with like high ratings
00:18:37	00:18:41	and then go in
00:18:38	00:18:41	and grab a review image of it that looks
00:18:41	00:18:44	good
00:18:41	00:18:45	and add it as your last picture right so
00:18:44	00:18:47	if you come in and you use z
00:18:45	00:18:49	drop let's take this for an example even
00:18:47	00:18:50	though it's a bad example right
00:18:49	00:18:52	so if we wanted to come copy this to
00:18:50	00:18:54	mercari we know that this has review
00:18:52	00:18:57	images so we can list from this so
00:18:54	00:18:59	i would say copyrightary i would let it
00:18:57	00:19:01	do it do its job after i click after a
00:18:59	00:19:03	little paste pops up
00:19:01	00:19:05	there it is so let's paste it in let's
00:19:03	00:19:07	wait for it to do its job
00:19:05	00:19:09	so it pasted it in there right same
00:19:07	00:19:10	thing as before it pasted all the photos
00:19:09	00:19:12	in it pasted the
00:19:10	00:19:14	the title as much as it could fit it
00:19:12	00:19:15	pasted as much from the description as
00:19:14	00:19:17	it could fit
00:19:15	00:19:19	um and it actually pasted some tags in
00:19:17	00:19:20	there right so the only other thing that
00:19:19	00:19:21	you need to do on rokari because on
00:19:20	00:19:23	rakar you
00:19:21	00:19:24	actually can use your own uh you know
00:19:23	00:19:26	tracking number and just
00:19:24	00:19:28	have it shipped directly to the customer
00:19:26	00:19:29	the only other thing that you need to do
00:19:28	00:19:31	is grab a review image so you click the
00:19:29	00:19:32	ratings you come up here
00:19:31	00:19:34	to all the customer images and you just
00:19:32	00:19:34	want to grab this one pretty looks
00:19:34	00:19:36	pretty good
00:19:34	00:19:38	you want to take a snapshot of this
00:19:36	00:19:38	right a screenshot so i can use like the
00:19:38	00:19:41	snip
00:19:38	00:19:42	tool if i wanted to on pc i know there's
00:19:41	00:19:44	one just like it on mac although i'm not
00:19:42	00:19:46	sure what it's called and you just want
00:19:44	00:19:48	to take like a snip picture of it right
00:19:46	00:19:49	and then you're going to save it save it
00:19:48	00:19:51	as like 4
00:19:49	00:19:52	4 you can save it as whatever you want
00:19:51	00:19:54	doesn't matter
00:19:52	00:19:56	um and then just put it in there right
00:19:54	00:19:59	and now we have the entire listing
00:19:56	00:20:01	plus an image that's not a stok photo
00:19:59	00:20:02	so now we're within the terms of service
00:20:01	00:20:04	uh you know with their images right
00:20:02	00:20:05	you're actually not allowed to drop ship
00:20:04	00:20:07	tiknically
00:20:05	00:20:09	on mercari anyway so you it is against
00:20:07	00:20:12	the terms of service but
00:20:09	00:20:13	um you know you should already know that
00:20:12	00:20:14	right like
00:20:13	00:20:15	pretty same thing with poshmark it's
00:20:14	00:20:16	already against the terms of service on
00:20:15	00:20:18	posh markets against the terms of
00:20:16	00:20:21	service to retail dropship
00:20:18	00:20:22	anywhere except for facebook marketplace
00:20:21	00:20:24	currently
00:20:22	00:20:25	i believe right so it's against the
00:20:24	00:20:26	terms of service on amazon to retail
00:20:25	00:20:28	dropship it's against the terms of
00:20:26	00:20:30	service on walmart it's against the
00:20:28	00:20:32	terms of service on ebay etc etc okay so
00:20:30	00:20:34	we've already covered that right
00:20:32	00:20:35	but to stay within their parameters you
00:20:34	00:20:37	just need to take a review image and
00:20:35	00:20:38	then everything else is the same right
00:20:37	00:20:40	you add the tags
00:20:38	00:20:42	you categorize it properly you add the
00:20:40	00:20:43	brand um you want the
00:20:42	00:20:45	you don't need to actually add the brand
00:20:43	00:20:47	although i do from time to time or you
00:20:45	00:20:48	just go no brand not sure which i also
00:20:47	00:20:50	do from time to time
00:20:48	00:20:51	um here we'll just well i'm going to
00:20:50	00:20:52	categorize it quickly because i don't
00:20:51	00:20:54	really care because i'm not actually
00:20:52	00:20:55	listing this but like obviously you want
00:20:54	00:20:57	to find the right category
00:20:55	00:20:59	often it will suggest the category to
00:20:57	00:21:00	you and you can just pick one so that
00:20:59	00:21:02	goes a lot faster
00:21:00	00:21:04	same thing with the color as poshmark i
00:21:02	00:21:06	rarely put the color in although you can
00:21:04	00:21:07	this obviously doesn't have a color
00:21:06	00:21:09	because it's just earrings
00:21:07	00:21:11	and then you want to say like where am i
00:21:09	00:21:13	shipping it from right
00:21:11	00:21:14	here is where you it makes a difference
00:21:13	00:21:16	on mercari right so you don't want to
00:21:14	00:21:17	have the buyer because then the buyer is
00:21:16	00:21:17	going to be paying for the shipping
00:21:17	00:21:19	right
00:21:17	00:21:21	the only way that you can actually drop
00:21:19	00:21:22	ship effectively here is if you go all
00:21:21	00:21:24	pay
00:21:22	00:21:25	and then once this pops up it says i'll
00:21:24	00:21:28	pay
00:21:25	00:21:29	why is it not popping up what did i miss
00:21:28	00:21:31	oh the subcategory
00:21:29	00:21:33	sub cat we'll just say baby dolls even
00:21:31	00:21:34	though it's not right so then right here
00:21:33	00:21:38	again right like i'll pay
00:21:34	00:21:42	why is it not popping up usually it does
00:21:38	00:21:42	oh the title category
00:21:42	00:21:46	okay sometimes like there's like a
00:21:45	00:21:48	little bug here where it's like if you
00:21:46	00:21:49	don't ever click in the title really
00:21:48	00:21:50	fast or in the description it just won't
00:21:49	00:21:52	count it
00:21:50	00:21:54	won't register for some weird reason um
00:21:52	00:21:56	but just keep that in mind you'll you'll
00:21:54	00:21:57	pick that up pretty quickly uh so again
00:21:56	00:21:59	you don't want the buyer here
00:21:57	00:22:01	you want to go all pay and then you want
00:21:59	00:22:03	to come in and say ship it on your own
00:22:01	00:22:04	do not use a prepaid label same thing as
00:22:03	00:22:06	facebook marketplace right
00:22:04	00:22:08	and then you click save and then just
00:22:06	00:22:09	down here again you want to make sure
00:22:08	00:22:11	smart pricing is turned off
00:22:09	00:22:14	otherwise mercario will lower your
00:22:11	00:22:16	prices periodically automatikally
00:22:14	00:22:17	to try to drive sales and then the same
00:22:16	00:22:19	thing as facebook marketplace the same
00:22:17	00:22:20	thing as poshmark you basically just
00:22:19	00:22:21	want to make sure you're profitable
00:22:20	00:22:23	right so like what do you want to sell
00:22:21	00:22:27	this as we could list it as like
00:22:23	00:22:30	19 and then we would make 1625 but it
00:22:27	00:22:30	only costs us
00:22:31	00:22:35	uh 9.99 plus tax and again you can use
00:22:34	00:22:37	the same little tax trick if you're not
00:22:35	00:22:39	tax exempt just take 10
00:22:37	00:22:40	so you can round this up to 10 take 10
00:22:39	00:22:42	of that which is a dollar
00:22:40	00:22:44	then it's gonna be eleven dollars to
00:22:42	00:22:46	anywhere in the country and then
00:22:44	00:22:47	right here you'd make like 50 you'd make
00:22:46	00:22:49	five bucks right or you can list this
00:22:47	00:22:50	higher at like 25 bucks it's really up
00:22:49	00:22:51	to you
00:22:50	00:22:53	but that's basically how you do it on
00:22:51	00:22:55	mercari that's how you do it on poshmark
00:22:53	00:22:57	the only difference again to hit it home
00:22:55	00:22:59	is poshmark you need to ship the label
00:22:57	00:23:00	there's two ways to do that check the
00:22:59	00:23:01	link
00:23:00	00:23:03	or the video in the bottom of the
00:23:01	00:23:04	description i'll also pop it up in the
00:23:03	00:23:06	right hand corner right now
00:23:04	00:23:07	if you want to go there directly same
00:23:06	00:23:09	thing with mercari right the only thing
00:23:07	00:23:11	with mercari is
00:23:09	00:23:13	you while you can use your own tracking
00:23:11	00:23:13	numbers on mercari you can ship it out
00:23:13	00:23:15	on
00:23:13	00:23:17	you know just directly to the customer
00:23:15	00:23:18	you do need to have a review image in
00:23:17	00:23:21	there so you can only use
00:23:18	00:23:22	listings with review images in them so
00:23:21	00:23:23	that you can take
00:23:22	00:23:25	them you can find them on walmart you
00:23:23	00:23:26	can find them on poshmark often you can
00:23:25	00:23:27	find them on some of the other sites as
00:23:26	00:23:29	well
00:23:27	00:23:30	but just wanted to cover the basics of
00:23:29	00:23:32	this because this is a question i get
00:23:30	00:23:33	asked a lot like how you actually drop
00:23:32	00:23:36	ship on these platforms
00:23:33	00:23:37	what's my process to go through it it's
00:23:36	00:23:39	very very similar there's only slight
00:23:37	00:23:40	differences so i really hope
00:23:39	00:23:42	that that helps if you appreciate the
00:23:40	00:23:42	value in today's video give it a thumbs
00:23:42	00:23:45	up
00:23:42	00:23:47	i genuinely appreciate it and i'll see
00:23:45	00:23:47	in the next one
