    GREAT JOB on your first auction!! You are very personable and it seemed to go really smooth! I am also a newbie on whatnot and my first sale is May 5th at 2:22pm PST and I am nervous and excited too! But it was great to see you do your thing! very encouraging!

      Aww, thank you so much Mamabebo! I am certain you are going to nail your first one and even if you don't...it's all about growth and getting better as we go. I think back to this auction and laugh at myself a bit for how "green" I was compared to what I know and do now. Part of the journey 🤙

    Things I learned from my first auction that you probably already figured out: The shipping is usually $3-8 for the first item then just $1 per item after that so it encourages buyers to bundle. It charges buyers immediately thats why you see the "purchase approved" after every sale to make sure it goes through. Great job and yours looked at lot like my first auction! Ill be sure to follow you!

    Fantastic Video! I'm getting ready to do the onboard session since I was approved and this helps a lot. I've seen people add items to the auction as it is running if no one is bidding to give a better deal. I don't understand how you change the shipping cost to the buyer live while doing that, since the weight would be more. I will be selling handmade jewelery. Thanks for any info and hope your future auctions are as good as your first.

    • @soldbyronnie
      @soldbyronnie  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Glad it was helpful! Shipping cost is based upon the weight you select, so once you pick that for each item, it will automatically calculate the appropriate shipping cost. This will only vary for a buyer if they are in a different country than you, otherwise everyone pays the same shipping rate whether they are in California or New York simply based upon the weight that you select.

      I hope it went well! You will probably not have many folks in at the beginning and are gonna have to unload some things for pretty cheap to build your audience. But if you have a steady stock of merchandise and stream regularly, you can build that base and get more folks in. I kinda ran out of merchandise to sell so I'm not on there much anymore, but it sure was fun while it lasted.

    I admit I haven't watched your whole video but I do have a question, how do people know you're having an auction? Let's say I schedule a auction how do people on What-Not know that I'm having one? Do they search a specific category and then pick from that or is there some sort of self promotion? I don't have followers like The Crazy Lamp Lady or some of the other big names in the You-Tube sellers world. I realize you're new to What Not and thats why I wanted to ask you how it worked or works. I will finish watching your video so I can see how it works. Thanks. I'm sorry if you answered this question in the video but I have to leave thats why I can't watch the whole thing right now.

    • @soldbyronnie
      @soldbyronnie  ปีที่แล้ว

      Great question! You can schedule a show on Whatnot and that will show up on the show list for the category you selected. People can elect to get notified when your show gets live and they will receive a notification. You likely won't have many people starting out but once you make some sales and start building up a reputation, people will follow you and can be notified every time you go live automatically. Promoting yourself on social media is also an important aspect as well to building up a solid following.

    So I just got approved for live selling! I am mainly a comic book guy but I invested in a ton of sealed lego sets over the last 28 months or so (substantially discounted). Can you tell me how the shipping works on WhatNot for these big sets?

    • @soldbyronnie
      @soldbyronnie  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      You bet! Shipping will be whatever it costs for the first item and then a dollar for each additional item that someone buys during the same auction. What a lot of folks do is sell lighter things earlier in the show like a Minifigure so the shipping is $3.50 and then sell sets later when the shipping will only be $1 if the buyer purchase something earlier in the auction. It’s a solid formula that has worked well for me in the past. Best of luck and let me know if you have any other questions!

    Great video! My first auction is Monday night and I was searching TH-cam for behind the scenes help! I got some great ideas from you, so thank you! I subscribed and am following you on whatnot as well. Can you help me with a question? I’m not sure how to login with two devices for my live show. Once I start the show with one device, will I be able to start each auction from the 2nd device? I know this is a silly question, but I’m scarred from so many times of logging into zoom meetings with two devices and getting horrible audio feedback screeches. I’m really nervous this is going to happen again! Thanks for any help you can provide!

    • @soldbyronnie
      @soldbyronnie  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hey Theresa, great questions! That’s exactly what I do. I use my phone as the camera for the show and on my laptop, I activate the listings. Definitely not a silly question as I was wondering the exact same thing. I’d recommend doing a shorter auction the first time (an hour or less) that way you don’t get overwhelmed with the amount of shipping and packaging that follows. If you have any other questions at any time, don’t hesitate to reach out!
