Selling on Poshmark

Have tons of clothes that you've never worn, still have the tags or just tired of it? Some of that "junk" to you is worth a couple bucks. Poshmark is a great way to make a profit off those waste of space clothes you've been dieing to get rid of & here's a couple tips on how to sell on Posh.

First download the app! The app is available for iPhone and Android & it's completely free! You will be doing all the selling on your phone, but you also have the option of viewing it on a computer.

Next, you need to pick out the clothes you are wanting to get rid of, I usually place them in large plastic storage tubs that you can get at Walmart or Target. This helps from making a huge disorganized stack of clothes! 

Be sure to have the supplies the you need to make your shipping nice and pretty! This is very important because when a buyer receives your package they love to see that you put some time and effort into making it look nice. It also helps you get more 5 star ratings and great reviews! Here is a list of supplies that I use to ship my packages:

-Priority Mail Boxes/Envelopes 

posh only uses priority mail, or you can use a normal brown box laying around the house

-Tissue Paper

Be sure to get nice a colorful tissue paper to wrap your products and for safe shipping so there are no damages to the product. Package Paper also does a great job, because it's more thick to help prevent damage. 

-Ribbon, String, Yarn 

You can use this to tie together your product, this helps to make your package extra pretty!

- Thankyou Card

This adds a personal touch that buyers love to see! It let's them know you put effort into their package.

- Free Gift

This is optional, it's  something I like to do because it's a nice little surprise for the buyer, it doesn't have to be anything special just something small that everybody can use! 

- Basic Necessities

 Scissors,Tape, Pen, Package Tape, Bubble Wrap 

Be sure to spend within your budget! Remember your trying to make money, it can sometimes be easy to get carried away in decorating the package! Most important, just have fun with it! 

 

Now its time to start listing your items, Poshmark makes it easy to list items by just taking a couple of pictures and writing a description of the item. Be sure to price your items reasonably because Posh also takes a percentage from the sale. 

Yay you made a sale! Once a buyer has purchased your item, you be be emailed a shipping label and all you have to do is print it out and tape it onto your box. Now its ready for shipping! Once the buyer has received their item the money will be transferred to your Posh account. There you can use that money on Posh or direct deposit into your bank account. 

Something that you should be careful with is trading, personally I do not trade because some people could be scammers and not send you there item, so you just lost an item and end up with nothing! Be aware of trading and who you trade with. 

Now you are ready to start selling and making some extra cash on Poshmark!
