Reselling Spotlight: Selling on Poshmark
A few years ago I found myself having a conversation with an organizing client regarding avenues to resell her clothes. We discussed FB Marketplace Groups and eBay. At the time I was only familiar with eBay.
She mentioned Poshmark and asked if I could help her navigate the platform. I signed up for an account so I could learn how to post and how to process orders and the rest is history.
IMO Poshmark is the easiest platform to use when reselling.
The platforms that we focus on are:
It is free to list on Poshmark
First, it is free to list on Poshmark. I greatly appreciate this as Etsy charges and eBay sometimes does.
It is easy to create a listing
Second, it is extremely easy to build a listing on Poshmark. Their listing page is extremely easy to navigate. One of the easiest ones IMO!
Poshmark isnβt just for clothes
Weβve had GREAT success with selling items other than clothes/shoes/accessories on Poshmark.
In fact, all listings go on eBay & Poshmark. Then we consider Etsy and Chairish based on the age of the item.
Shipping is so easy
Once an item sells, then Poshmark will email you a shipping label. As long as the package is under 5 lbs (which most are), then you are good to go. Just pack, attach label, and mail! No need for scales and measuring tapes!
Poshmarkβs Commission is Competitive
Most platforms charge 20% commission on average. Poshmark makes it very easy to navigate and track items once they are sold.
Etsy & eBay are the worst at nickeling and diming sellers.
Be Sure To Transfer Your Money
Poshmark acts like a holding bank for your funds, so donβt forget to transfer your money! I do this monthly.
What is your favorite platform to resell on?
