Thank you Lindey, I just watched your video and you have truly inspired me to get moving and start listing on ebay with a whole different mindset... God bless you and your business and all of your followers will flourish!!! Amen and amen!!!❤
great video! a good video to include in your ebay series is "which platform to move items to next when they cant sell on ebay". im looking forward to this series
Just like our corporate jobs, try tackling a continuous improvement idea once a quarter or something. First, make a list of areas that could be improved and then dissect one, create a system or flow that will improve it, etc. Then tackle the next.
Like any business you need a sound strategy. As you shared your thoughts you are in a few different business. The first piece of accountability you should consider is what is it you want to do/be? Once that is established build your strategy and tactics to deliver success.
A lot of us are just starting out of trying to tweak our ways so if your kinda starting over include us starting over... Like your store is an example and things we should do or try. Anything new comes out and you think about trying tell us then so we can try or not with you... Let us all learn and push each other to have a hold ability count every 30 days... No can can match each others exactly because we all sell different items and find different items in all the different places we come from.
I've been watching you since you were selling HBA out of your basement years ago. In that time my death pile has outgrown a 40' x 46' shop building. I've stopped buying but I haven't been able to ramp up my listing nearly enough. I need accountability too
You’re not the only one that needs a big push 🤣🤣 i’ve just relisted a bunch of stuff from vinted onto my ebay account now it’s free to sell on there 👍🏻👌🏻❤️🇬🇧
i have listing on ebay but i forget about them since they dont sell regularly i checked the other day one sold and i was past my 48 hrs to ship it. i want to list more items too but like you i cant find the umph to want to actually do it. i have tons of new clothes to list but it feels like it will take alot to get them all pictured listed etc. and now my printer is out of ink the last one i printed it scanned at the post office but they have not rescanned it anywhere today so i dont know how i will know if it is on its way or not.
@CRugg27 without a doubt, get a return... bigger stores you notice more... between us and the kids we have four stores some big some small it's interesting because there's even different interfaces
You can have as many as you want but after 250 listings you have to pay 35 cents per listing monthly. Around 315-320 or so it makes sense to just pay for a store because the insertion cost will start to be more than the cost of a store
What makes me procrastinate is taking photos. I can spend a lot of time and energy and they don't come out good. Clothes are the worst! And anything reflective.
Lindsey, may I ask….i want to move some items to fb like you. How did you set up your page? And also my eBay store is individual and not a store where I pay a sub…is it worth it to switch to get more sales?
Okay, so I love your new way of thinking because I have always overcomplicated. I’m talking spreadsheets yada yada yada. However, will it become an issue with reporting taxes and what not if you do it the way that you’re talking about doing it now?
I always say how long an item took to sell. Sorry if you said that. I'm listing and listening. lol Also, if you lack motivation to list, work with a friend remotely. It helps! Agreed with the COGS. Mine are $1 and it's so much easier knowing what offers to accept, calculate profit, etc.
And a suggestion.. do what you love. Maybe you dont need a push maybe a redirect? Maybe combine selling and videos and go to whatnot? Maybe a new fresh fun thing to do will get u excited again. I know whatnot you need followers in there so perhaps a few week lead up to a big sale promoted on all your platforms. I know this is not what you asked but thought it may be a good fit since u love videos and not listing
Don’t fix something that is not broken! I think some items on FB you are selling to cheap. I work work on more viewers on that page. Have you thought about a live? You would kill it! JS
You are a motivator Lindey! A hard worker who wants others to succeed. I hope only great things come to you :)
Thank you Lindey, I just watched your video and you have truly inspired me to get moving and start listing on ebay with a whole different mindset...
God bless you and your business and all of your followers will flourish!!!
Amen and amen!!!❤
You got this. I list at least 10 items a day, but on Sunday, I take that day off. It really helps keep your store moving.

Get a whiteboard or a spreadsheet you can show your viewers on your progress.

Yeah I need this too. Your small sales beat mine, I just lost money on a sale. I have to get restarted too!
I understand perfectly. I haven't been able to get back to selling on eBay. I know I can sell more doing it.
i have listing on ebay but i forget about them since they dont sell regularly i checked the other day one sold and i was past my 48 hrs to ship it. i want to list more items too but like you i cant find the umph to want to actually do it. i have tons of new clothes to list but it feels like it will take alot to get them all pictured listed etc. and now my printer is out of ink the last one i printed it scanned at the post office but they have not rescanned it anywhere today so i dont know how i will know if it is on its way or not.
You could pull up the screen that shows the sold information. Akd show screen shot from last month. Amd if you have returns and such.
ebay broke the search in 2023 and they turn stores on and off, I'm curious to see your experience goes
Thank you! My post office clerk thinks I’m crazy when I say they shut my store down. I’m convinced they do it.
@CRugg27 without a doubt, get a return... bigger stores you notice more... between us and the kids we have four stores some big some small it's interesting because there's even different interfaces
Maybe what items sell best where? I see all the different apps dont know where to send them to sell
Hi! I’m just curious about how many items you are allowed to have without having a Monthly store subscription???
You can have as many as you want but after 250 listings you have to pay 35 cents per listing monthly. Around 315-320 or so it makes sense to just pay for a store because the insertion cost will start to be more than the cost of a store
Do you have a spreadsheet that you will be using? If so would you mind sharing?
If I make one I will :)
What makes me procrastinate is taking photos. I can spend a lot of time and energy and they don't come out good. Clothes are the worst! And anything reflective.
Me too, but try taking pictures outside with natural lighting as much as possible 😢
Wow, you need to send offers on your items!
Total value added but what about totall amount spent and not sold in 30 days.
Hi Lindey, how about noting the tweaks you made to the descriptions to the items? Cheers, Pat
Let us know what sales you did and how much you promoted and the difference it made!!
GIRL MATH ALL DAY 24/7 you go Lindey
I am here with you.... I AM SOLO ENTREPRENEUR...who totally understand.
Me too☹️
Lindsey, may I ask….i want to move some items to fb like you. How did you set up your page? And also my eBay store is individual and not a store where I pay a sub…is it worth it to switch to get more sales?
How about how many hours spent doing ebay.
The dog bark at the end was cute😂
Okay, so I love your new way of thinking because I have always overcomplicated. I’m talking spreadsheets yada yada yada. However, will it become an issue with reporting taxes and what not if you do it the way that you’re talking about doing it now?
Not at all. All income and outgoing flows through Quickbooks. Profits calculated
What insane prospective.
Thanks
I learned from you! Consistency, list some everyday!!
Lindey would that mean taking the sell through rate out of the equation or would that help you ?
I don't necessarily think I would factor in sell through rates if the inventory is free or $1 or less. When it sells it sells!
I always say how long an item took to sell. Sorry if you said that. I'm listing and listening. lol Also, if you lack motivation to list, work with a friend remotely. It helps! Agreed with the COGS. Mine are $1 and it's so much easier knowing what offers to accept, calculate profit, etc.
Do you list mostly on facebook marketplace or communities?
Hi, u need community sellers challenge , working team , innovative Marketing Strategy , Community Strategy ....ect
Is the Facebook Page killin it? I would go hard on that.
It is and I am but I'm not one to put all my eggs in one basket
Yea! 😊😊😊😊😊
And a suggestion.. do what you love. Maybe you dont need a push maybe a redirect? Maybe combine selling and videos and go to whatnot? Maybe a new fresh fun thing to do will get u excited again.

I know this is not what you asked but thought it may be a good fit since u love videos and not listing
How do people keep a lot of item on eBay they charge.35 cents an item if I put over 250 items I know i relished so item and it was .35 a item
I would start out with listing on eBay one day a week…the same day each week and the same number of items. You’ll have a baseline.
ME TOO!!
Lindsey you need to finish your nut roasting business and Facebook stuff before starting ebay. You have got this. Yeap was ebay. What about etsy?
Don’t fix something that is not broken! I think some items on FB you are selling to cheap.
I work work on more viewers on that page. Have you thought about a live? You would kill it! JS
I like your idea sounds good
I don't know anybody that works harder than you do.
oh so me too
Another Solo act here...totally understand your video
I'm trying to get back selling on ebay, I wasn't selling anything so I lost interest
The dreaded shipping
Absolutely
Sounds good
💯
Items returned
great video
PS - I'm not earning commission by referring these sites :) ha ha ha🤣
I'm not quite sure what you mean with that statement. I don't earn commission from any sites I referenced.
cuz u got Kicked off....
😂 no I didn't. I'm not creating a new account. It's the same account I've had for years.
Facebook sounds nice. How do you list on facebook. Delivery wise. Luv you! Thank you!
Do you sale on Facebook or facebook marketplace
