Thought I would try a little experiment this morning. Something I've been thinking about lately. I've been wondering how much of a difference category makes to STR on a certain item. I decided to try this morning with a pair of Nike Golf Pants. In the eBay search, I typed in "Nike Golf", then calculated STR for a few different categories. Here's what I found: Mens > Pants - 37.8% STR Sporting Goods > Golf > Mens Clothing - 39.7% Mens > Activewear > Pants - 42.8% I think this is pretty significant! 5% difference in STR depending on just category.

Y'all, let's get honest about this reselling journey for a minute... 👇 It's not always the pretty highlight reel you see on social! 🎥 When I started 3 years ago after losing my job and our house burning down, I learned QUICK that this business is WAY harder than it looks! 😅 But here's the truth: The hard seasons don't last forever! 🌅 What changed the game for me? 🎯 • Stopped looking for "hacks" and shortcuts • Started working harder on MYSELF than my business • Created actual systems and schedules • Got crystal clear on my goals • Focused on becoming the best sourcer I could be • Pushed past those limiting beliefs! 📚 Real talk: If you're struggling to list 10 items or hit consistent sales, I've been there! 💯 But with practice, what used to take 4 hours now takes 1. What seemed impossible becomes routine. 🔄 Tips that took me from struggling to $450-650 daily sales: 📈 • Track your metrics • Take walks to clear your mind • Focus on high sell-through items • Stop comparing your Day 1 to someone's Year 3 • Keep learning and growing! 📱 Remember: This business is more competitive than 5-10 years ago, but that just means we gotta level up! 🆙 You're capable of WAY more than you think! 🚀 The person who pushes through these hard seasons is the one who succeeds. 💪 Drop a ❤️ if you needed this reminder today! #reselling #resellercommunity #sidehustle #entrepreneurship #motivation #ebayreseller #thrifting #sourcing #smallbusiness #growthmindset

Had multiple sale yesterday and after all the fees and shipping, left me with a bit more than $100 profit. Woo-hoo! Finally! Today has been quiet so far, but quite happy with yesterday's result. Just wanted to share.

I am planning a full inventory audit in November. I will take a Saturday and pull boxes of inventory and match contents to the 4 platforms we sell on. I am expecting to find items not listed, items listed but missing from inventory and items that need to be completely redone. In preparation for this I spent tonight consolidating inventory. We emptied a large number of boxes to make room for more items. Of course I am going to keep listing daily. But we are much leaner on our shelves for now. Any advice on doing inventory?

I’m really excited to start classes tonight. Thank you Beau for sharing this knowledge with us!
