Awesome! What a great way to re-group , refresh, and move forward. Looking forward to all your videos. You have helped many learn so much more. Thank you
I just found you today. This was my second video that I watched. Your authenticity is so rare. I’m an instant fan. Thank you for being you and sharing with such vulnerability.
You are very inspiring and Jeff . You are truly a blessing to Poshmark community . I’m sure 2023 will be bigger year for guys . Stay transparent & amazing . Love u Ashley & learning a lot from you ❤
Thank you for being real and sharing your struggles. I am newer to reselling, about a year in and I can tell you that I have worked around the clock at this as I work a full time job. My husband has now joined me part time and I feel your pain about not living life fully. We want to also work smarter not harder so I will be excited to see more video's. You are doing great, so keep it up!
Thanks for sharing your story! Wishing you all the best moving forward. I’ll be tuning in to your channel. I love your honesty and transparency. I resell as a supplement to my retirement and sometimes I have to remember it is not my full time job😅 I got caught up in buying inventory on whatnot early on but realized that doesn’t make financial sense for my business. I enjoy the thrifting so have tried to curb my impulse buying on live shows. 😊 That’s not to say I haven’t had some winners. I sold a Visvim jacket I purchased from you and resold it for 430.00 on Poshmark. I only sell on one platform because I don’t want all the bookwork. Thanks again for sharing your story!
Great job analyzing and figuring out what works and what doesn't. I'm a new reseller but I'm also not new to this planet (haha) and I work full time as a paramedic. Reselling brings me joy beause I get to source and it's fun, and I get to match up people to items that hopefully bring them joy. BUT... if it becomes something that doesn't bring me joy, why would I do it? I also happen to love my career as a paramedic and don't want to resell full time. Your realization is soooo important for you and it warms my heart to see you be so much more intentional. This intention is going to be so important later in life when you look back on family time... because being slower and intentional helps you to form memories. Hustling constantly doesn't let your body really form long term memories. You aren't making some of the mistakes I did ... sometimes I look back and FB Memories from a decade ago and don't remember that day, even though I see I was with my kids and doing a fun activity. Anyway, this has been a really long comment...
Wow! Not everything that shines is gold. We had to start reselling during the pandemic when I lost my job and I was the main source of income in my family. We hit about $260K but it has been so much work that sometimes I have thought about going back to work again, but I don’t think you can make wealth by been an employee , keep going , you are in the right track but takes time to build a business and make it work for you.
Bless you, Ashley. I am 77 yrs old. I can never get back those years with my son. I wish that I have not worked so much so that I could have been with him more. When my mother died she left me me lots of stuff. I need to get rid of it for the best price soon. I have 3 houses and 1 is a drag on my bank account so I am selling it. The renter left so much stuff on platform. Your videos really help. Thank you so much. I don't want to leave my son with the burden of a bunch of stuff to deal with.
Omg. I just started to follow a few days ago. This video is so powerful & true. I needed to hear this. I have a full time job & started to resell a year ago. I just want to say thank you. I hope you & your beautiful family health & happiness for 2023. 🙏
Thank you Anabel! I'm so glad you found me a few days ago! It's rough juggling full time employment and reselling. I did that for almost 2 years. I get it.
@@AshleyWheeler2.0 I have 4 kids & 1 is special needs. I’m doing this for them & saving money for them. But at the same time it does take time away from us doing stuff together. So I started to do it at night when they sleep but it take a toll. I feel your video was made me open my eyes & take it a day at a time. Family is first priority. Once again thanks & looking forward to your videos & knowledge 🙏
Ooh Ashley,… You R A Real One‼️.. Can I Tell You How Much I Appreciate Your Transparency.. I’m A Long Time Follower& I Must Say I Did Miss You On You Tube & Your Educational Reselling Content & Your Knowledge. I Believe That 2023 Will Be Prosperous, Not Just Financially.. But With Your Family. Yes FAMILY Does Come First Because Without Them ALL The Rest($$$) Is Meaningless. I Am Also Happy That You Have Found Balance In Your Life.. Congratulations & Keep On Keepin On..
Wow. Thank you for sharing this so honestly. My goal at the start of the year was simple: make enough money to pay for our family to go to Disneyland in a big and comfortable way. I budgeted what we'd need to have a no holds barred kind of trip and that's my goal. I dream of doing more, but I know this alone will be huge for us. Being able to have a dream vacation without taking from our usual income is a blessing. I'm excited to hit my goal and then see what comes next!
Best video ever ❤ thank you for this open & honest video about the hustle culture and all the pros and cons of reselling. The good the bad the ugly. Time is precious 🙂
WOW. I’ve learned SO MUCH with this ONE video. I admire, respect and look up to you and Jeff even more after THIS video. First and foremost, it is not a competition. We are all doing our best. We all have our own challenges, constraints, limits ETC as to where we wish to be in our reselling story. Not that I ever wish to do a live show as I’m only part time because of my 1st business constraints(?) but I just wish that they made it more fair and manageable for those that do want to do lives consistently if that’s what they wish to do. My “hustle” is for me to have safe shelter, clothes on my back and food in my belly. My reselling is to keep items out of the landfill, sustainably and good practices for lifetime garments. I SINCERELY appreciate your transparency, your honesty and vulnerability in sharing your seasons, transitions and the beauty of evolving to take care of YOU and your family. Thank you SO MUCH. ❤
So happy you shared the whole lay out of events. I'm with you. Live shows require a high level of work, and I personally couldn't sustain it. Proud of you my friend❤
I just want you to know this video touched me so much. I can feel the emotion in your voice. I’m very proud of your progress both personally and professionally. Go you! ❤️❤️❤️
There are many of us not at all interested in live sales. I love traditional reselling and unfortunately have had to un follow so many on TH-cam that I just don't learn from anymore. I appreciate that many are making more money, just not for me. But, that being said, I appreciate you laying it out for us
Loved this girl!! I still do live sales but it's not my priority Ebay & Poshmark are. I am mainly doing kids shows on whatnot now and don't stress about the shows anymore like I used to. I so agree with you about the giveaways too. I don't do them every time and honest think they shouldn't be a part of the deal. My goal this year has been adding higher end items to Poshmark & Ebay stores and that has been a good success so far. I so appreciate you sharing the behind the scenes of what really happened. People see what is happening on shows or in closets but don't know the hard core work it takes to do what we do. I work a average of 10 hours a day between Poshmark, Ebay, my TH-cam channel and whatnot. My husband & I are empty nesters which makes that a bit easier for me but I hope to hire out some of the work soon when my business is ready for it.
Thank you for sharing. I love hearing your goals too. And I forgot to mention that in the video but you can see with the eBay monthly sales decreased at the end of the year. That happened due to live sales. I want to get that back up.
@@AshleyWheeler2.0 so understand!! My goal each day before working live sales things is to list 10-15 new listing on Ebay & Poshmark in the morning-early afternoon then I do live sale things if needed after TH-cam work is done.
Best video of the reality of live selling! Agree 💯 on everything you say here. I as well realized how I didn’t even have time for my kids & husband and in the end that time is priceless! So happy that you guys are moving forward in the direction you chose! Best wishes always!!❤
I’m so proud of you two. Getting to watch your sale and here about your struggles really spoke to me. I admire your hustle and I commend you on being wonderful parents. Hugs from Oklahoma. Y’all are bad asses. ❤
I actually have been watching you videos recently and coincidentally you were the host of the Poshmark virtual session I attended yesterday. You have been such a blessing and your tip and tricks have helped do much with my new reselling journey. I am so happy to hear you’ve decided to work smarter not harder and I am so thankful for your honesty about the whatnot platform. May God continue to bless you, your family, your business ventures and your families health as well. I am confident you will triumph in whatever the future holds for you. You have a heart of gold AND THIS IS YOUR SEASON HUN!!!!!
Great Video thanks for sharing! Washington State here so been watching your vids. You have been very transparent and helpful finding those hidden deals thanks again. I was doing Amazon FBA for a couple years but shifted to E-Bay and Posh. Nothing live. Just trying to build quality stores now and not looking for so much junk to clean haha. My thing is making new casserole recipes haha. Thanks again and I am sure you will prosper.
I would love to know your whole inventory system like item numbers. And do you put the cost of each individual item in your spreadsheet or do you average and just take the total of what you spend each month and total amount of items ?
YES!! I love buying from live sales, but the time…. It’s exhausting. It took away time from so many things in life that are too precious. It might be different if I had employees, but it was too difficult to work full time, list and do live sales. Praying for your families health. Thanks for all the great content.
Thank you SO much for being so open, honest, and vulnerable. It's so comforting to see that we all are facing similar challenges and victories in life, in Q4, and in our reselling businesses as a whole. This video just made me like you even more than I already did lol Keep it up, you're so awesome, and so inspiring. ❤
Well Ashley, you deserve a compliment how flawless and trendy your makeup and hair looks for a busy mom of 8 kids. There are definitely some kink they need to work out on them to be enriching and fair to seller and buyer. Maybe if people had to make a reservation ahead to attend online auctions they would value he opportunity more as the seller has to put a lot of work into the show. Also, there should be policies that resellers should not bringing children on to these shows under he age of 12 or 14 and same with doing your tube videos in this niche. Parents should foremost be very protective of their children. ✨📣 MJ WeThin
I appreciate that compliment on the makeup. Yes it hasn't been until recently my kids pop in every once in a while. And that was only after they begged for them to be in videos or say hi, and only few do it. There is definitely a lot of craziness happening with kiddos online now a days, so protecting them is important.
Hi Ashley! Where in Oregon do you live? We’re in Tualatin! I just started reselling on Poshmark in 2022. I have my 1st live show 3/30 and could use your advise! 😊
Great video! Thanks so much for sharing such personal information. I am sure it was not easy. I can relate to the lives. We tried to do them when Poshmark approved us and we were doing them almost 5 times a week and felt we lost so much time for not a lot in the end. Love the lives we just had to pull away for a while and will probably get back to maybe 1 week soon. Glad you guys have found what will work best for you this year.😊
I need that cinnamon recipe 😂 My food goal this year is to be able to make them for my family and I can't get it right. This was a phenomenal video and such an inspiration 😊
This video hits home in so many ways. Thank you for being so honest and also very inspirational. Here’s to the slow and steady race. I get it. I understand it. I feel it. I hope your mom and stepdad are doing ok! Sending love and light and healing prayers.❤❤❤❤❤
I started making sourdough bread, english muffins, pizza dough ect last year and it is such an awesome way to slow down and disconnect from thinking about reselling all the time. Pizza dough is our favorite! I loved the way you broke everything down in this video, i tried what not over and over and over and couldn't find momentum and couldn't let things go for such small profit, so back to listing I went. What days are you doing Posh lives?
I really want to try pizza dough. We did naan flat breads and my husband is obsessed. We make a lot of homemade pizzas so that one would be really good for us to start making. And I agree, it really is a great way to disconnect and slow down.
@@AshleyWheeler2.0 My main goal is to increase my # of active listings by listing more consistently. Hopefully that will lead to more sales, and a higher sell through rate.
@@AshleyWheeler2.0 okay so they are gross sales, gotcha! It would be helpful to know net profits, it looks like you're saying you made over $135k profit🥰
@@r0se_777 Yes, gross numbers can be very deceiving. While people really shouldn’t ask resellers what their true net profit is - it would be nice if they gave a range. Such as - Gross $205,000 and the Net was between $110,000-135,000. It shows a bit of the true numbers because as we all know some resellers can gross over $205k and only net $45k.
