    What is Cross-Listing and Why Should I Do It?

    What is Cross-Listing and Why Should I Do It?

         The internet is not in short supply of reselling platforms such as, Poshmark and Ebay. Sure, you’re making a killing on Ebay and or Poshmark, why stop there, CROSS LIST! Cross listing is taking your available listings and relisting them onto another platform. There are many benefits of cross listing, of course with the pro’s come the cons. Lets discuss, shall we? 

     

    Congrats, you have enough sanity to take on another reselling platform!  Don’t put all of your eggs in one basket, cross list! Cross listing is a great way to effectively boost your sales, profits and exposure. Not only  are you exposing your products to an entire new platform, you are also creating your very own competition. 

    Pros: 

    -Double the Exposure 

    In order to make sales, your items need to be seen. Cross listing your items on to another platform will showcase your items to millions of people. If you’re feeling adventurous you could even sell worldwide on Ebay. I highly suggest NOT listing your items for worldwide shipping. I have done this, I have been burned, I have lost money and my damn mind. It’s a pain in the honeybuns. No, that’s not a type-o, I really said honeybuns. 

    -Increased profits 

    More listing more money, it’s that simple. Not everyone is on Poshmark, and not everyone is on Ebay. I have sold items that were not selling on Poshmark, on ebay as soon as I listed them.  

    -Create your own competitive pricing. 

    Creating your own competitive pricing is my secret weapon. If you are a bit crazy like myself, before you purchase something online, you do a quick google search to see if you can find it somewhere else cheaper. Your Poshmark and ebay listings show up within Google search, even when you go to Google Shop.  Sometimes I will list my Poshmark items just a bit higher than my Ebay items and vice versa. Creating those price differences has proven to bring buyer to both of my online shops, raising the odds of bundled orders. 

    -Ability to sell more than just clothing 

    We all have stuff besides clothing that we want to sell however, Poshmark does not allow you to list certain items. Below is a statement directly from Poshmark, stating what items are not compliant to list within their platform. 

     “We do not condone the buying or selling of electronics, cell phones, books, dvds, home goods, used makeup, used underwear, any health and wellness products (examples include lotions, body wash, diet supplements, protein powder, body wraps, breast pumps, curling irons and hair straighteners), non-fashion kids/baby items (examples include but are not limited to toys, bedding, strollers, bottles, formula, diapers and miscellaneous gear) and current airline and airport uniforms and related items (which include pilot, flight attendant, TSA, baggage attendant gate agents and all other flight and ground crew uniforms). Any listings in these categories will be deleted. Members who repeatedly attempt to sell such items risk permanent suspension from Poshmark.”  

    Just because you can’t list it on Poshmark, does not mean you can’t sell it somewhere else! It takes 2 minutes to make an ebay.com account. Do yourself a favor and make an ebay account. You will be able to sell and list so much more, resulting in an increase of profits! 

     

     

    Cons: 

    -Time consuming 

    With the good comes the bad however, from experience this is the only downfall. Selling on multiple platforms may become time consuming. It is very important to answer potential customers in a timely fashion. You will be receiving questions and offers from all over the place, that’s a good thing! Just take a deep breathe, maybe a shot of Fireball and GET IT DONE!

    The Notorious Summer Sales Slump – How to benefit from the slow summer retail months 

    The Notorious Summer Sales Slump 

    How to benefit from the slow summer retail months 

     

         Summer is finally here, the weather is beautiful and everyone is ready to enjoy the beach, pool and well-deserved vacations. This all sounds perfect, but what about your sales? If everyone is out and about enjoying the summer sun, that means less people are online shopping. The summer months are notorious for drops within the resale market.  Did you notice a sudden drop in traffic, offers and sales on Poshmark? don’t throw in the towel yet! Here are some ways to benefit from the slower summer months. 

     

    Organize 

       Organizing inventory is my least favorite thing about reselling. There is not 1 thing about organizing I enjoy, not going to lie about that, but of course it has to be done. I find organizing in the summer to be the most beneficial time of the year to do so. When I organize I put my items into categories, and sizesLet’s say I have a red Valentino dress listed for sale, that dress would be hanging up in my dress section in size order. I use portable closets to hang up and keep my folded items in.  I used to use bins but, every time I needed to get an item which would be every other day, I found myself rummaging through the rest of the items and it just looked sloppy. 

     

    Fall/Winter Fashion Research

        The fashion world moves super-fast, so should you if you want to stay ahead of the game. Most of us are working on our tans and summer fun however, fall and winter fashions are already being previewed within the fashion industry. Don’t wait till the leaves start to change pretty colors to look for fall and winter fashion trends. Do your research now and start to look for affordable sourcing options for the upcoming season. 

     

    Go Thrifting 

    Summer thrifting is the best! So many people are out of town, on vacation, traveling etc… Thrift stores are empty, and I speak from experience. Every weekend I go thrifting at the Goodwill outlet and every weekend (during the summer) I find that I have the store almost to myself. I have free range of every rack, bin and cart. There are no nosey shoppers looking at what I am looking at, no competition and no lines. I find the best items in the summer months, which I load up on.  People love cleaning their closets out during the spring and summer, and lots of those items end up and thrift shops. I can’t express my excitement enough; summer thrifting is a MUST! 

     

     

    Garage Sales 

    Tis the season for garage sales and lemonade standsyaye! No, I’m not telling you to go make a lemonade stand but…if you really want to, I won’t stop you. There is no need to explain how popular garage sales are during the summer, I’m sure you see plenty of those. Garage sale hopping is a thing, or at least for me it is. I round up all of the local garage sales in my area for the day, and I check them all out. You can find everything and anything at a garage sale. One man’s trash is another man’s treasure. When people get don’t use things, they lose value to the person, so they are willing to just sell it for whatever. I have scored some seriously fancy items lately from garage sales. I purchased an authentic Dooney and Bourke tote for $3! Of course, before you purchase designer items, take the time to try to authenticate it as much as you can, and never list garage sale or thrifted items for sale unless you can 100% authenticate it. I find my sources on my local Facebook community groups and boards as well as Facebook market place. All you have to do is post “Who is having a garage sale?” You’d be surprised how many people respond. I’ve done this while on a getaway in Boston and it worked as well.  You can also use websites like “Garagesaletracker.com” or “yardsalesearch.com 

     

    Take Time Off 

    It’s summer, enjoy it! If reorganizing, taking new photos or garage sale/ thrifting is not your ideal summer goals, take a break. Summer always seems to pass so fast, take time to enjoy the little things. You are not a machine, sales drop and that’s normal, it happens to every business no matter how big or small. Take some time to reflect on the success you have created and how you can improve and grow. The internet is not going anywhere, you can login whenever you want. Summer only lasts for so long, enjoy it!

    POSHMARK REVIEW: Is Poshmark legit, or just another bad reseller platform?

    POSHMARK REVIEW:
    Is Poshmark legit, or just another bad reseller platform?

    If this question has been bothering you for some time now, you can find its answer after going through this comprehensive and thorough Poshmark review. We have critically evaluated the Poshmark platform for you to find out whether it is really possible to make money on Poshmark or is it just an illusion.

    Let’s start with the basics!

     

    Poshmark Review: What is Poshmark?

    Those who have recently heard about Poshmark and have no idea what it is, here’s a brief explanation.

     

    Poshmark is basically a Smartphone application available on Android as well as Apple iOS devices in the US. It is a platform on which anyone can sell their clothing items which they do not want to use any longer. However, not every clothing item can be put up for sale. Only items which are unused or gently used are fit for selling on Poshmark.

    Its a great way to get rid of castoffs which don’t match your fashion sense or are not a good fit. You can make your wardrobe clutter free and earn some hard cash while doing so which you can utilize to try a new brand or a particular item which you have been eyeing for a while now. Its seems like a win-win situation, right?

    Well, let’s test this platform first and then reach a conclusion.

     

     

    Poshmark Review: How To Use Poshmark?

    With more than 25 million listed items for sale on Poshmark, this platform does seem very popular for selling clothes that are no longer useful to you. It not only allows you to sell but gives the option of buying as well.

    Let’s focus on selling on Poshmark first.

    Poshmark Review: How to Sell on Poshmark?

    Have a closet full of items which are just hanging there for no reason?
    List them on Poshmark for sale.
    How can you do that?

    Step 1

    Go to poshmark.com and sign up for an account. Then download the application. Once you have the app on your device, open it and click on the ‘sell’ button. Then simply click a picture of the item that you want to sell with your smartphone and upload it on the Poshmark Buy & Sell Fashion application. The app allows you to upload four pictures of the same item. A great feature is that there are in-built filters with which you can glamorize the pictures to make them more alluring.

    Add an attractive description to the picture which highlights the features of the item. Don’t forget to give a title for the item along with the description and details like size and category. Finally, set a reasonable price tag for the item which takes into consideration the condition, brand value and trend relevance of the product. Click on ‘next’ and ‘list’. That’s it. Your item is listed in your Poshmark closet. You have your very own personalized clothing store within 30 seconds at no expense. You can share it with all your friends. The Poshmark Buy & Sell Fashion application works without a glitch and is fairly simple to use.

    Step 2

    In case you want to change a detail after listing, you only need to choose the ‘edit’ option on the top right hand corner of the screen. After making the changes in the description, photos or price, you need to select’ next’ and ‘list once again to save the changes. Once you have made a listing through the app, you can add to the list from the web as well by going to the Poshmark website and signing in. The rest of the process of creating a listing is the same.

    Step 3

    Whenever someone places an order for your item, you get notified by Poshmark and get 7 days to prepare the package for delivery. The company recommends that you send the package within 2 days so that it can be delivered to the buyer quickly. The customer also gets the option of making an offer which you can either accept, reject or negotiate. After the deal is done and order is placed, the delivery process starts.

    Step 4

    A major advantage is that Poshmark provides you with pre-printed USPS Priority Mail shipping labels via email which you just can stick on the box and drop it off at the nearest USPS mailbox or have it picked by a Poshmark personnel for free from your home. There is no need to pay anything. However, make sure that the email address that you provide is an active one. In case you do not receive the mail, you can manually download it by going to the ‘My Orders’ section on the website or app and selecting the correct label.

    Step 5

    If you are not able to send the package within 2 days, you need to print a new shipping label by going to the Poshmark website and click on the ‘resend shipping label’ option under the relevant order. The order may be cancelled by the buyer if you do not send the item within 7 days. If you know that you cannot make the delivery within this time limit, you should state so in the description of the product to avoid conflicts in the future.

    The maximum time limit for fulfilling an order is 21 days after which the company can automatically cancel the order. This system of delivery is applicable to orders below $500. When orders exceed this value, the package is first taken to the Poshmark headquarters and verified before dispatching to the customer. This system is termed the Posh Concierge Service.

    Step 6

    Poshmark does not charge anything for listing items on the platform. However, there is a charge for every sale conducted on Poshmark. Here’s a list of the fees charged for different sales:

    • Poshmark charges a commission fee of $2.95 per sale is the total order value is less than $15.
    • There is a 20% commission rate for sales worth $15 or higher.

    The payment is not given to you till the item reaches the buyer. After the product is delivered, the buyer gets a window of three days to accept or return the product. If there is no return request from the buyer, Poshmark releases the funds to your account on the fourth day. The money in your Poshmark account can be used for making purchases on Poshmark or it can be withdrawn as cash.

    It’s pretty straightforward, isn’t it?

    Now let’s move on to the process of buying.

    Poshmark Review: How To Buy On Poshmark?

    How exciting it is when you are able to shop something that you really envy from somebody else’s closet, isn’t it? If you think that such an opportunity is never going to be available to you, don’t give up hope.

    With more than 5,000 brands available at attractive prices, you can shop for all your favorite labels without worrying about going overboard with the expense. All you need to do is download the Poshmark Buy & Sell Fashion application from the app store on your smartphone and set up an account. Then browse through various closets and narrow down your search with the help of brand names.

    Whatever you like can be compiled into a list and shared with friends. Another great feature is the Posh Party which you can join with your friends to check out several themes and brands and buy clothes on sale.

There’s a huge collection of all kinds of trendy clothes available on Poshmark. You can find clothes of every size and price range here. Poshmark offers a community-like environment where you can chat with other members and discover amazing styles, all in one place.

    Step-wise process for buying on Poshmark

    1. Finding items

    The first step is to browse through the items available on the platform. This is very simple. You can choose from a range of categories like Poshmark for men, Poshmark for children and Poshmark for women which have several subcategories as well. Another way of narrowing down your search is to sort according to broad categories like brand, shoes, clothing, and accessories. The last and easiest way to locate specific items of your choice is to type a keyword in the search bar. Once the search results are displayed, you can simply click on any product to check out its features. Site navigation is smooth so people who are not very tech-savvy can also find their way through the millions of products.

    2. Making a purchase

    After clicking on a particular item and going through all its features, if you really like the product and are happy with price, you just need to press the ‘Buy Now’ button. In case the price seems to be slightly higher, you can make an offer to the seller by quoting a lower price with the help of the ‘Offer’ button. You need to follow this up by entering your payment details and shipping address. Then click on either ‘Submit Order’ or ‘Submit Offer’. That is all you are required to do. The rest of the process is handled by Poshmark.

    3. Getting the delivery

    The seller is supposed to dispatch the item within 7 days. Once the seller dispatches the item, you can expect its delivery within 7 to 14 days. After receiving the package, you need to check the item thoroughly. If there is any defect or issue with the item, you have three days to place a return and cashback request. After that period no request is entertained. You are protected by Posh protect when you make a purchase so there’s no need to take stress about getting your money back.

    Now comes the main part!

    Poshmark Review:
    How To Make Money On Poshmark

     

    After understanding how Poshmark works, you must be wondering how much you can earn or save through this platform, right? Here’s a quick overview:

    Selling On Poshmark

    There are a few points which determine how much you can make on Poshmark by selling clothes, shoes and accessories.

    – Number of listings

    – Type of Items for sale

    – Brands you are offering

    It is natural that the more listings you have the more money you can make because chances of sales are higher. The second way of making a good profit on Poshmark is to list just two or three branded items and set a price which matches their brand value. If the pieces are trendy and designer, you are bound to find many takers who are ready the asking price.

    There are several success stories to get inspiration from in which people have made upto $500,000 using this platform. Isn’t that great? Though this figure is hard to believe, it is achievable if you have an endless supply of items to sell. This is just an example which shows the money-making potential of Poshmark and you can take inspiration from it.

    Buying On Poshmark

    Whether its a shoe or a bag or a dress that you are looking for under a specific brand name, you can find it on Poshmark at very reasonable rates. Here are a few categories that you can browse through:

    Poshmark For Women

    There’s a wide range of women’s clothing available including dresses, tops, swimwear, pants, sleepwear, jackets, jeans, sweaters and a lot more. Brands like Nike, Michael Kors, Louis Vuitton, Gucci, etc. are featured on Poshmark. All kinds of handbags and footwear can be found in one place.

     

    Poshmark For Men

    Be it suits and blazers, jackets and coats, sweaters, shorts, shirts or shoes, men can shop for everything on Poshmark in a hassle-free manner.

    Poshmark For Children

    Pajamas, Matching sets, costumes, shirts and tops, one piece sets, dresses and bottoms for kids are readily available on Poshmark at attractive prices. Children quickly outgrow their clothes so buying clothing items at highly discounted rates from Poshmark is a good way to save money.

    There are unlimited varieties to choose from and the items on sale are just gently used so you need not worry about the quality and condition of the product that you are buying. If you have a budget kept aside for shopping then Poshmark is the best place to give your wardrobe an overhaul.

    However, always make sure to compare prices of a particular item or similar items on two to three online shopping portals before purchasing. This is recommended because you may not always get the best deal on Poshmark even though the price of an item is lower than its original retail price in the market as the sellers try to make a good profit.

    Poshmark Review: Pros Of Poshmark

    1. Accurate Customer Targeting

    Compared to other platforms like eBay and Craiglist, Poshmark gives you better access to your exact target demographic. The other two portals are generic ones because they cover all kinds of products. However, Poshmark just focuses on people looking to buy and sell fashion items. So despite having lesser traffic than the other eCommerce platforms, Poshmark is the best place for everything related to fashion. You know what your audience wants and the chances of making a sale are much more definite than on any other similar platforms. You can even charge a high price on Poshmark because there is demand.

    2. Huge Community

    For sellers a huge community of fashion lovers is a boon because they get a ready customer base with whom they can interact and increase sales. As there are so many takers with varied preferences, your listed items are bound to find a buyer sooner or later.

    3. Buyer Pays Shipping

    This the best feature on Poshmark as it makes delivery so easy. Whenever you sell on Poshmark, you don’t need to pay a single penny extra apart from the fixed commission rate. Just pack the order and print the ready label to ship it.

    4. Simple Navigation

    The layout of the Poshmark application and website is so organized that you do not face any trouble while navigating it. You can easily locate the item that you want to buy or list an item within 2 to 3 minutes.

    5. Quick Communication

    Buyers and sellers can interact through chats or messages regarding any order-related queries. Direct communication ensures transparency of transaction and enhances customer satisfaction.

    Poshmark Review: Cons Of Poshmark

    1. No Free Shipping For Buyers

    If you are a buyer, be prepared to pay $6.49 for shipping. This can make your purchase more expensive than you had planned for. Always compare the additional costs and discounts to see whether a deal is feasible or not. It doesn’t hurt to ask the seller if they can negotiate on a shipping price!

    2. High Selling Fees

    The commission rates of $2.95 on orders upto $15 and 20% on orders of higher values is quite a big cut which can certainly slow down your money-making process on Poshmark. However, if you wait patiently for some time, small profits can grow into a substantial fund which you can either save or se for revamping your wardrobe.

    3. No private messages

    Poshmark does allow buyers and sellers to interact directly. However, this can be done only through the public comments section. This can sometimes turn embarrassing when you are dealing with a dissatisfied customer or resolving queries.

    Poshmark Review: Tips For Using The Platform

    If you are just starting out as a buyer or seller on Poshmark, go through some of the handy tips given below for a good first time user experience on the Poshmark Buy & Sell Fashion application.

    For Sellers

    ->> Post high quality pictures

    The pictures of your item should have great lighting so that the actual color of the item can be accurately captured. Give full length as well as close up shots through which customers can see all the details clearly. Good pictures ensure higher sales.

    ->> Share other users’ closets

    The secret behind increasing sales on Poshmark is to spread your network and improve your visibility on the platform. This is only possible when you share items belonging to other sellers or Influencers on Poshmark. They may reciprocate by sharing your closet. This way you can get access to their followers as well.

    ->> Give as many details as possible

    The first thing that a buyer checks while checking out an item is its size. Sizes also vary from brand to brand. So don’t forget to include proper measurements of every item. Also mention details like color, fabric and category of the item that you are selling. When the customer gets a clear idea, chances of a purchase increase.

    For Buyers

    ->> Negotiate when you think its required

    You do not have to pay the asking price for an item if you feel that it is beyond reasonable. There is the option of making an offer which you should definitely make use of to haggle with the seller. Quote a price which you feel is fair and wait for the seller’s reply. The seller might just accept your offer if he wants a sale and you can get the item at a discounted rate.

    ->> Purchase smartly

    If you buy two or three items from a single seller, there are chances of getting discounts between 10% to 15% on every item. Isn’t that amazing? What’s more? You are just charged a single shipping rate when you club three or more purchases. Its a really smart way of saving money.

    Poshmark Review: Final Verdict

    According to our analysis of the Poshmark Buy & Sell Fashion application as well as the online platform, the user experience is quite good. It is a great way of selling any unwanted fashion items and making some money in return.

    For new purchases as well, it is a very cost-effective way of buying branded stuff. So the answer to the question ‘Is Poshmark legit’ is a definite yes. There are some areas which need more work but overall the platform delivers what it claims.

    The Best Time To Share and Follow on Poshmark

     

    By: Poshmark Sharer

     

    Staying active on Poshmark is very important if you want to make sales, gain followers and offers. Having a Poshmark sharing and following session during certain hours of the day is crucial for gaining maximum exposure. Below are some time frames proven to bring in extra sales, offers and followers.

    Self-sharing is extremely important. We recommend self-sharing your closet 3-4 times a day, this will ensure that the most people (across the US) will see your listing. With the minimum of 3 sessions and maximum of 4 sessions per day.

    THE BEST BUTTOCKS EXERCISE IN MUSCULATIO testosterone cypionate testosterone bodybuilding steroids, anabolic steroids acha glytech.



    The Optimal Poshmark Sharing Schedule

    A great way to start the day is to share your items right before the morning rush hour. Keep in mind, Poshmark is available throughout the united states which carry different time zones. We like to run on EST, which is the earliest time-zone. Ideally sharing your closet around 8am EST will bring your items all the way to the top of the “Just Shared” list, making your items visible to everyone who logs on in the morning. Early bird gets the worm, so make sure you get those morning self-shares going!

    Afternoons can be a bit tricky. Lots of people are at work, school or just preoccupied with errands. Self-sharing during the afternoon is important however, if you can’t get it done, it’s ok! Ideally, we like to complete afternoon shares around 1pm EST. Any items that are available to be shared to the morning party will still be shared, as well as to your feed.  Now that you just shared your items, they jumped back to the “Just Shared” list, which again brings more eyes to your items.

    Sharing On Poshmark During Late Afternoon & Evenings

         Our two favorite times to share on Poshmark are 4pm and 9pm.  Both Self-sharing and community sharing is ideal for these times. This is what I call the “Poshmark Timezone Rush Hour” people just got out of work, their home finally relaxing, checking all of their social media’s, emails etc. Poshers have the time to sit down and focus in, so this is the time you should do the same.

    We noticed lots of traffic when completing one round of self-shares as well as 200-300 community shares. Yes, 200-300 community shares seems like a lot however, you’d be surprised how many posher share back. When these Poshers share back, they usually share more than 1 item. We typically see 5-10 items shared back! Now imagine if 90 Poshers out of those 200-300 you shared- shared your items 8 times, that would be 720 of your items shared during prime hours.




    Late Night Sharing On Poshmark

    Now this next time slot is from one of our awesome customers. Without further-ado, let me introduce the “Pub Crawl” hours of 1am-3am EST. This time-slot is not for the faint of heart! If you find yourself up at those super late (early?) hours, hop onto to Posh and give your closet a quick share.

    We see customers waking up to more offers and direct sales when we shared for them at these hours. During New Years Eve almost all of our virtual assistants and admins were working an all-nighter, completing shares and follows all night long. Without a doubt, that was the best weekend our customers have ever experienced. We seen a customer make 25 sales that night.  That was a great night! Ever since new years eve, customers have been asking for the “pub crawl” hour shares.

    We Can Share For You

    The same time slots can be applied for gaining followers. I would recommend not following during the middle of the day. When we completed follows during the lunch hours, we didn’t see much of a turn around. We roughly seen maybe 2 our of 10 follow back, not cool.

    Over all the hours between 9pm-2am EST are our gold hours. No matter what we do during those hours, whether it’s self-sharing, following, or community sharing we always see a great turn around in offers, followers, likes and sales. Of course, that is a lot of Poshmark for one day, but our Poshmark closet virtual assistants are here to help!  Do you want to try out the pub crawl hours, but can’t stay up that late? Fill out a contact form on our website, PoshmarkSharer.com and let us know how we can help!

She was very disciplined, the catholic high school, in fact was popular for making its students the most disciplined. She had a cute sister by name Rhetta. Kate enrolled at the University of Kansas and later transferred to Arizona State University where she studied Journalism.

    How She Entered The Fashion Industry- Kate Spade As A Brand

    Spade worked in the department of accessories of Mademoiselle, Manhattan. While working here, she met Andy Spade, brother of the famous David Spade and married him in the year 1994. In 1991, she quit Mademoiselle, by then she was a senior fashion editor. Kate was very quick at grasping things, she had noticed that there was a huge market for fashion handbags. She decided to create her own line of stylish handbags. She wasted no time in turning things her way and began working on her ideas. She explored the local markets, researched on various styles and fabrics and came up with a line in 1993 that was superior in fabric and unique in colors and shapes.

    This clearly shows that Kate was a very creative person with a passion for fashion. She was also an achiever- creating her own line in the world of fashion and getting them sold in high-end stores such as Bloomingdale’s, Saks Fifth Avenue, to mention a few, was no easy job. Her handbags were an instant hit with the masses, they were popular for being creative to the core.

    Success was synonymous to Kate. She, along with her husband Andy Spade, were successful in creating sleek and splendid handbags. The colors were striking and moreover the shapes, utilitarian. She partnered with her husband and the two took their business to international levels. In 1996, Spade got the recognition she deserved- she was honored by the Council of Fashion Designers of America with the ‘America’s New Fashion Talent in Accessories’ award. The council also recognized her for her collection of home items and bestowed her with three awards- House Beautiful’s, Elle Decor’s and Bon Appetite’s award.

    Kate started expanding from fashion handbags to other items such as eyewear, shoes, paper goods, cosmetics and got them featured in over 450 stores across the globe. However in 1999 the couple sold their business to Neiman Marcus Group, that was sold to Fifth and Pacific in 2006. The couple were active with the brand, however.

    Manners, Styles And Occasions were Kate’s three books where she shared her philosophies and personal style.  In 2006, the couple also invested in a television network, Plum TV that broadcast privileged vacation spots. They, in 2016 launched a new fashion endeavor, Frances Valentine. The same year, they came up with products that were Minnie- Mouse themed. There were also phone accessories besides jewelry.

    Kate was an idol to young American girls. She had an unmatched dedication for her work and her husband supported her all along. The couple balanced their personal and work life, and gave all attention to their child.

    Death

    June 5, 2018 was a tragic day for the fashion industry. Kate Spade committed suicide in her Park avenue apartment. Her family and friends are devastated, it was least expected! A woman so courageous and who took on entrepreneurial challenges to prove her worth was no more! She was just 55. She has left behind her husband and child, Frances Beatrix Spade.

    More About Kate Spade..

    It was on some interview that people got to know Kate wanted to quit from her business and she made up her mind when her daughter was born. She wanted to quit long back, but her husband always encouraged her to move on. He knew she was a special woman with extraordinary capabilities, so  he always wanted her to continue with her passion, even with the biggest of financial troubles. Kate did not want to continue as she feared losing money, she also wanted to spend some quality time with her family, especially her daughter. She valued family time and made sure her family had dinner together, every night. She also wanted to be there for her daughter even for the smallest of things. She coped with the stress of being a mom and business person- she was such a bold lady!

    Kate was always unique, so were her products. When she first came up with a designer handbag line, she sewed her brand name outside of the bag, as against the inside labels with other brands. This helped her grab attention and the modern, cosmopolitan American women went full length to own a Kate spade handbag.

    Kate always thought into the future. She knew the pulse of the teenage girls and young working women and came up with bags that suited the budgets of different classes. She was iconic! Even though she was not obsessed with fashion in her early years, working with Mademoiselle magazine was a turning point in her life. She quickly identified the gaps in the fashion industry and wanted to fill them before anyone did. She was innovative and capable. However she was very careful when it came to money matters, she did not find it a good idea to continue with the business when she thought the couple were losing money. It was only at the insistence of her husband that she kept moving.

    Today, the fashion industry and especially the people associated with her brand are shocked. The woman in whom they saw a character of go- get, and who was an entrepreneur by choice, had committed suicide! The New York police have confirmed suicide by hanging.

    Could you just believe this?

    What does this show?

    The reason for Kate Spade to have taken this extreme step is unknown, however family matters/ relationships are said to be the reason, this is not confirmed.

    How could such a courageous lady commit suicide? Did nobody recognize the symptoms at all or did she not express any signs?

    Kate could have been suffering from depression or possibly alcoholism. She has left an note, but that is not the matter here. Is this not a warning signal to all of you? Should you not lend out a helping hand to those in need?

    It is highly advised to watch out for signs of suicidal tendencies. Especially if any of your family members or friends has suffered a broken relationship or having troubles with finances, it is your responsibility to see that they get help as soon as possible. Just leaving them alone or letting them suffer in silence thinking that everything would be fine as time rolls is a wrong notion. With no help around, they are sure to get incited with  more suicidal thoughts.

     Act quickly to avoid regretting later.

    Suicide Awareness

    Suicide is the hardest thing to hear. It also leads to deep regrets when a friend or family member commits suicide, as thoughts arise as to whether it could be prevented. Yes! Suicide can be prevented provided immediate help is offered to people in trouble. Not all individuals get suicidal thoughts, but it is always better to be on the safer side, keep a watch!

    When you come to know that your relative/ friend is in trouble, watch out for these signs:

    • Change in his sleeping and eating habits
    • Preferring to be alone
    • Talking of suicide
    • Avoiding social activities
    • Loss of interest in his daily  activities

    These are some of the common signs, though each individual might vary with showing the symptoms. If you come across any individual showing these signs, quickly take them to a counselor. Moreover if you are in some sort of trouble and getting suicidal thoughts, it is high time that you seek professional help.

    Getting suicidal thoughts is nothing to be ashamed about, it is just that your mind needs to be healed and strengthened. Waste no time in seeking assistance and you will be ready to take on life’s challenges better than ever! It is just that sometimes your mind is not ready to accept challenges or does not want to deal with certain saddening situations, but you need to! Life is all about uncertainty and you need to be strong and confident. However your mind also sometimes feel sick just like your body and to get back to a state of mental well-being is no difficult task, provided you seek help at the right time. The world is a big place and you have a beautiful life ahead. Why take your life when you can enjoy it to the fullest with a bit of help?

    You need to come out with an open mind and speak to your closest family member or friend. If you are not okay with this, professional counselors are always there to help you! Consult and transform your life! Be happy!! Nothing stays forever in this world and nobody is perfect. You just need to cope with things and people in your life.

    If You Come across Someone Who Is Thinking Of Suicide…

    Never leave them alone. Be by their side and talk positively. Ask them to be brave and try to get them out of such thoughts. If it is too much to handle for you, ask them to call The National Suicide Prevention Lifeline immediately.

    Suicide is what some individuals consider to be the best way out to escape from mental distress. They think it solves all their problems. However one thing they do not consider here is the grief their family members go through. In fact, suicide serves no purpose, it only complicates the matter.

    While some individuals come out strong in times of crisis, some others need help. If you are one among them, you are highly advised to call the lifeline number. The professionals here see to it that you come out of the crisis and look at life in a more positive way. Taking your life is a matter of minutes or seconds, but is that what you really wanted to do? Is there no way out? There definitely is!!

    Everybody in the world has problems, so how would it be if everyone starts committing suicide? Sounds weird, right? Suicide is not the solution. You need to face life and move on. The problems are temporary and you will certainly have a more beautiful life ahead.

    All You Need To Know About Suicide Hotline In U.S

    If you want to help someone in distress or if you are getting suicidal thoughts, National Suicide Prevention Lifeline is what you need to call. The lifeline offers free support, 24/7 and of course, it will be confidential. Tel: 1-800-273-8255.

    The National Suicide Prevention Lifeline provides emotional support to people in distress across the country. The network was launched on January 1, 2005 and since then has been striving to spread awareness about suicide prevention. Crisis care is what the lifeline cares about and you are advised to utilize the resource to the fullest if you are in bad mental condition.

    The lifeline utilizes expert guidance to improve its services.

    About Kate Spade’s Suicide

    Kate Spade definitely was in distress, considering the extreme step she has taken. Probably she needed help that could not be recognized at the right time! However the reasons are still unknown and coming to any conclusion would be wrong. If such a courageous person can commit suicide, it means sometimes your mind will not be in a position to deal with challenges, however strong you might be. This is where professional help matters!

    Kate Spade was such an icon and she could have been alive if she had sought assistance. Now she has left behind her husband who stood by her all his life and a daughter whom she loved dearly. Just imagine the condition of these people and the grief they need to go through! This is something they cannot forget for their life!

    Do you want to see your family members in such a situation? If not, seek immediate help and come out of distress!

    Strive to spread the message on suicide prevention and help save lives!

  • Features We Wish Poshmark Offered 

    Features We Wish Poshmark Offered 

    Features WWish Poshmark Offered 

    Poshmark Features We Dream About

     

    Poshmark is the top-trending fashion app for buying and selling clothes. The app is designed to allow users to easily upload photos, list and simply print shipping labels however, there are a few features that we really wish Poshmark would take into consideration.  Below is a list of features we would love to see implemented into the Poshmark app.




     

     

    Support Phone Number 

    Like most of us, there’s a good chance that you’ve searched high and low for a Poshmark support phone number.  Poshmark does not have a customer service phone number. They do have a voicemail-number, ((650262-4771) however, I doubt they listen to those messages, I left quite a few messages and never once received a call back or an email. With over 4 million users on Poshmark, a support phone number should be available.  Heck, Poshmark takes their 20% cut from each sale, a little support besides a week’s wait for an email reply would be awesome. 

     

    Private Messaging 

    Another feature we would like to see is, private messaging.  Communicating only within the comment section of your listing can sometimes seem a bit intimidating.  Customers may sometimes feel odd asking questions in public about your item, for example intimate items… Private messaging can really improve the buyers understanding of the product you’re selling. 

     

     

    Product Video Uploads

    How cool would it be to have the option to showcase your items by uploading a video! Videos bring items to life and can also raise the value of your item.  If I saw 2 identical dress listings, one with a video that showed a 360 view of the dress displayed on a mannequin and, one that only had photos of the dress on a mannequin, I would 100% click on the listing with the video.  There are no returns allowed on Poshmark, so being able to showcase our items better, will help buyers understand the item better.

     

     

    Offer Button Optional 

    Please, I beg you Poshmark, make the offer button optional! Sometimes we don’t want to accept offers on certain items. I always price my items higher because I anticipate offers all the time.  Ebay has a fantastic feature which allows you to pick the format for your pricing options. You can pick from “fixed price” or “accept best offer” which really lets you take control of your profit. I don’t know about you but, sometimes I feel intimidated when receiving borderline lowball offers. Having the option to disable the offer button would make selling way more enjoyable!  

     

    Closet Analytics (visitors, closet views, item views) 

    For some of us, Poshmark is a full-time job and our only means of income. In order to successfully grow, target and understand the Poshmark platform, I believe implementing closet analytics would be a complete game changer. Being able to see how many people visit your closet a day (impressions), item view count, and what time of the day is the busiest would make selling easier.  Having these features could help you understand your closet, what brands and styles are trending, also what you need to improve 

     

    Self-Sale Scheduling  

    Poshmark is time-consuming. Some of us don’t have the time to sit in front of a computer/phone for hours lowering our prices all the time. Having a self-sale schedule option would reduce the time you spend editing all of your prices. Having an item list, complete with pricing and the option of schedule sale options would make selling a breeze. Prices would automatically lower and go back to normal on their own, scheduled how you want it, when you want it. 

    Buyer / Seller Rating 

    Having the option to leave a rating for buyers/sellers is a great way to weed out the bad from the good. I would love to see ALL ratings, even the 1-stars left from the buyer to the seller. Only seeing 5-star ratings is highly misleading! Personally, I believe by having the option to leave buyers feedback as well will prevent buyers from leaving unjustified reviews. Being a seller on Poshmark may seem a little scary at times, I mean you can only contact Poshmark via email which takes days for a reply.  Being able to leave buyer reviews would also make me, as a seller feel like I have some sort of support, a place where my opinion is relevant, other than private emails from Poshmark. We would love to see a buyer rating option implemented into the Poshmark app, as well as seeing all reviews from both buyer and seller, no matter the star rating. 

     

    Of course, these features are just our ideas, and not anything Poshmark is working on. We do hope Poshmark releases some new features that help better our closets.  For starters, a customer support number would be ideal.

    We want to hear your ideas!

    Are there any features you would like to see within the Poshmark app, that was not mentioned above? Comment your thoughts below!

  • Poshmark Review From Senior Citizen Seller Stylists

    Poshmark Review  From Senior Citizen Seller Stylists

    Poshmark Review From Senior Citizen Seller Stylists

    Honest answers from active Poshmark seller’s ages 65+

     

    With over 4 million users on Poshmark, it seems like everyone and their mother is a seller stylist, but what about grandmother! That’s right, senior citizens are dominating the Poshmark platform, and you may not even realize it.  Poshmark’s marketing seems to be targeted towards women, men and kids..but what about senior citizens? Have you seen any of the recent videos Poshmark has released for T.V. and internet commercials? All of the “poshers” seem to fit a certain age group, why? 

    We asked three Poshmark users aged 65+ for their honest opinions about buying and selling on Poshmark. This is what they had to say:

    1.Do you notice lots of shares, follows and likes within your closet? 

     ” I think shares and likes are related to your sharing, the more you share the more you get. When my closet is on vacation I see a lot of followers but not many shares or likes. – @Ahineg “ 

     “Yes – esp. since I’m an ambassador.  I’m in 2 share groups. – @Guusje” 

    ” I notice several shares and follows and some likes in my closet. – @Felicityshoppe” 

     

    2.On average, how many offers/sales do you typically see in a week? (estimated guess) 

    “So far, I have been averaging about 4 sales per week and about the same amount of offers (perhaps a few less offers), not too bad for just starting out. @Felicityshoppe” 

    “I have about 30 Posh Sales per month (I have 70- 100 a month on ebay).   I do find the sharing and following to be very tedious and time consuming. And boring! 🙂  I love the fact that Posh buyers pay postage and that I don’t need to worry about shipping.  I do wish they offered an optional first-class option since so much of what I sell could easily ship first class for $3.  I think the high shipping costs are off-putting to some buyers. – @Guusje” 

    “Lately most of my sales are on the weekend, usually 5-7 sales. During the week maybe 1 a day. I consider myself a very small Posher. The number of sales is OK, but I would like to increase my average sale. – @Ahineg “ 

     


    3.Do you feel welcomed into the Poshmark community? 

    ” I haven’t been interested in attending any of the Poshfest events – from the pictures it looks like serious partying and designer drinks for the millennials who are also fashionistas.   I’m in a couple of FB groups and they have been very helpful. – @Guusje” 

    “Absolutely! Most Poshers are very nice! – @Ahineg “ 

    “Yes, I definitely feel welcome in the Poshmark community, and I am grateful for that! – @Felicityshoppe” 

    4.Do you use social media to promote your closet? (Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest etc) 

    ” no – should but I haven’t mastered Instagram and Twitter yet.  I don’t feel right pimping my closet on my personal FB page. – @Guusje” 

    “I use Pinterest and Tumbler. I belong to a number of Facebook Poshmark groups and have learned so much from them but I don’t post my items on Facebook or Instagram. I try to keep those more personal. – @Ahineg “ 

    “Yes, I use social media to promote my closet, e.g. Facebook, Instagram, Twitter.  I have a huge Pinterest interaction, but have yet to take the time to figure out how to best utilize it for my Poshmark closet. -@Felicityshoppe” 

     

    5.What age group do you believe your buyers fall within? (18-28, 29-39 and so on)  

     I think the age group varies, but actually am not sure exactly how to gauge that anyway.  Since I also currently have a lot of jewelry, I believe that contributes to the variance.  – @Felicityshoppe” 

    “I think most are 20 – 35 – I sell a lot of athletic wear and I actively search for brands that appeal to younger buyers.  My older women clothing seems to do better on eBay.  I also sell men’s clothing. – @Guusje” 

    “I feel like most of Poshmark is young so I will be very interested in your blog post! Because of the brands and styles I carry, I think most of my customers are between 30-45. – @Ahineg “ 

    6.With age comes wisdom, what would your advice be to the younger Poshmark sellers? 

    “Don’t assume every buyer is out to scam you!   And don’t get upset if buyers don’t give you 5 stars, life is not like elementary school where everyone gets a medal or certificate!  – @Guusje” 

    “Ha! Not sure I have any wisdom! I was a retail buyer for many years so I am always interested in turning my closet quickly. I would rather make less money per item but turn them quickly. I keep a record of everything I post, when it sells, cost to me and selling price, and where it came from. That way I am less likely to buy something that moves slowly. At the end of the quarter I re-evaluate what I have left and either take to a consignment store, donate or tweak the listing. Decisions thought out ahead of time are almost always better than impulse. Be organized! It is so much easier and you can make smarter choices. – @Ahineg “ 

     “To younger Poshmark sellers, perhaps cater to a more general audience, however I would like to see Poshmark itself market to a more diverse age group. – @Felicityshoppe” 

     

    7.Do you find it difficult purchasing for yourself on Poshmark? 

    ” I don’t buy very much. I have learned to look at the seller’s previous sales and comments. I live in a casual Colorado mountain town and we don’t dress up much. I’m retired and don’t need work clothes. I am always on the lookout for great, quality athleisure but I wear a small size, sometimes that is hard to find. I am always looking for older Poshers, I wish there was an easy way to create a group of “friends”.  – @Ahineg “ 

    “I don’t shop for myself on Poshmark – @Guusje” 

    “I have not yet made a Poshmark purchase. – @Felicityshoppe”
     

    8. Have you ever thought about going to Poshfest?

    “No, not yet.  Would not rule it out in the future. – @Felicityshoppe” 

    ” I have. The last Poshfest in Denver was when I was out of town or I would have gone. I am often the oldest person in the room so that doesn’t bother me. – @Ahineg “ 

    “No – from the pictures it looks like a non-stop alcohol fueled party and I rarely drink – @Guusje” 

     

     Poshmark is not just for your 20 something year olds.

    These seniors are proof that age does not define a successful Poshmark closet. Seniors are no strangers to the changing fashion trends. Senior citizens have made fashion what it is today, for example; Tommy Hilfiger is 67, Ralph Lauren is 78, Jean-Paul Gaultier is 66, Vera Wang is 68, Donna Karan is 69, Karl Lagerfeld is 84 and of course we can’t forget, the ever so trendy Betsey Johnson is a vibrant 75! 

    This blog post could not be possible without the honest Poshmark review provided by @Ahineg@Felicityshoppe and @Guusje . Make sure you spread that #PoshLove by following their amazing closets.

     

    Special Thanks To: @Ahineg@Felicityshoppe and @Guusje

  • Choosing The Perfect Poshmark Virtual Assistant Package for Your Closet – Poshmark Sharer

    Choosing The Perfect Poshmark Virtual Assistant Package for Your Closet – Poshmark Sharer

    Need Help Choosing the Perfect Poshmark Virtual Assistant Package for Your Closet ?

    A simple breakdown of our Poshmark virtual assistant packages 




     Managing your Poshmark closet used to be a breeze however, weeks, months and years have passed and now your Poshmark closet is out of control! No worries, managing your Poshmark closet with a Poshmark virtual assistant has never been so easy!

    We offer four premade monthly packages starting at $99 as well as custom packages, tailored to fit your budget and closet needs. Trying to pick between the 4 premade monthly virtual assistant packages? Today I will break down each package, helping you decide which package is right for you. 

    Poshmark Virtual Assistant Packages

     

    30 consecutive days, including weekends and holidays 

    750 self-shares a day + 250 quality target follows a day 

     The monthly bronze package is our lowest priced pre-made package. Just because it is our cheapest doesn’t mean it’s our weakest! The Bronze package is very popular with poshers who have closest with under 150+ available items., and here’s why… 

    Let’s say you have 250 available items listed within your closet. By purchasing the bronze package, your entire closet would fully be shared 3 times a day, morning, noon and night. You literally don’t have to share your entire closet for a full month. 

    The bronze package also includes 250 quality target follows a day. Um ok, what are “target follows”…? Target follows is the most efficient way to gain both new followers and a sale/offer. When we target follow, we only follow Poshmark users who follow or sell the brands you are selling.  For example, let’s say you are selling 20 items from Free People, we will follow active poshers who are following or selling Free People items.   

    __________________ 

    30 consecutive days, including weekends and holidays 

    1,500 self-shares a day + 500 quality target follows a day 

    Now let’s heat things up a bit with our silver monthly package. Our silver package is popular with closets that have around 300+ available items. Like most of us Poshmark addicts, we share our closets multiple times a day.

    Ideally, I suggest sharing your items 3x’s a day, morning, noon and night. Let’s do the math on these shares… 500 items x 3 loops a day = a whole lot of sharing, also known as 1,500 shares a day. Honestly, who has time to share 1,500 times a day…WE DO!   

    The silver package also includes 500 target follows a day.  As stated above, target following is a game changer. 500 target follows a day comes out to 15,000 targeted follows a monththat’s 15,000 poshers who already like your brands.  That’s a whole lot of bad assery (for the record, I just made that word up) 




     ________________________ 

    30 consecutive days, including weekends and holidays 

    2,500 Shares a day + 750 quality target follows a day 

     Time to put on your best pants suit, things are about to get serious.

    Our monthly gold package is popular with closets that have an average of 500 available items.  Just completing 1 round of self-shares would be a job on its own but let’s face it, just sharing your items once a day won’t cut it.

    When you share your item, it rockets to the top of the “just shared” list, allowing thousands of potential buyers to see your items. Those 2,500 shares a day are interchangeable. You can break them up into self-shares, community shares or share backs! 

    Recently Poshmark hit their 4-million user mark. Poshmark’s users are from all over America, resulting in different time zones.

    Like always, we encourage closet shares 3x’s a day, morning, noon and night. Sharing throughout the day will make sure every Poshmark user sees your items.  Our monthly gold package also comes with an impressive, 750 target follows a day. That is 750 selected users who already love the brands you sell seeing your closet each day. Back to this sorcery we call math, 750 target follows X 30-days = 22,500 Target follows a month… (mic drop) 

     

    __________________________ 

    30 consecutive days, including weekends and holidays 

    3,300 shares a day + 1,000 quality target follows a day 

     

    Diamonds are a girl’s best friend, so is this diamond monthly package. Our monthly diamond package includes a staggering 3,300 shares a day which is broken up into 3 sessions, morning, noon and night.

    This package is popular with closets that have 700+ items available, or closets that are looking for a major boost.  Those 3,300 shares a day are interchangeable. You can break them up into self-shares, community shares or share backs.

    The total amount of shares you will receive (not including the extras we give) would be 99,000! Imagine having someone else click 99,000 times for you! All of our services are automation free. All of those clicks are by your dedicated Poshmark closet virtual assistant. 

     Please, a round of applause for the 1,000-quality target follows you will receive each day with the diamond package. The total follows you will receive for the month is, 30,000 targeted users! That’s 30,000 potential follow backs, shares, offers and dare I say sales!

    Poshmark Review –

    The Best Thrift Shops in NYC

    Thrifting in NYC can be overwhelming. New York is jammed-packed with consignment shops and thrift
    stores, you just have to know which ones are worth rummaging. Below you will find my Poshmark review of my favorite thrift and consignment shops in NYC. I have made thousands in profits, and even gained a few new favorite outfits for myself.

    Beacon’s Closet (All Four Locations)

    Photo: BeaconCloset.com

     

    74 Guernsey St, Brooklyn, NY 11222 / 92 5th Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11217
    10 W 13th St, New York, NY 10011 / 23 Bogart St, Brooklyn, NY 11237

    Beacon’s Closet is my favorite place in the entire world!

    This is my #1 stop when sourcing fresh inventory.

    Beacon’s closet has four locations, they are all amazing however, the Greenpoint store is the biggest and the store I always go to first.

    Beacon’s has thousands of clothes on racks almost all are named brand.

    I typically find brands like, Prada, Kate Spade, Tory Burch, Nike, Alexander Wang but, there tons of highend brands mixed in. I once found a Celine Phantom bag, it did have a huge scuff on it however, the good old magic eraser took the mark right off!

    I purchased the bag for $89 and sold it for $740. Before I sold
    the bag, I had the it authenticated for save measures, yep 100% Real!




     

    The Goodwill

    47-47 Van Dam St, Long Island City, NY 11101

    This is not your normal Goodwill, this is the mega bins Goodwill.

    This is where I buy all of my bulk items. This location sells by the pound.

    The price per clothing pound is $1.69 and for every 24lbs it drops by 10 cents.

    Just like Beacon’s closet, you’ll find amazing designer brands however, everything is in huge bins
    that you have to sort through. The key to this location is patience.

    Every hour the workers bring out new items, it’s a never end supply!

    My recent findings were, Burberry Sneakers, Uggs, Valentino slacks and a NWT Dress by Kate Spade. This is the best place to source for my mystery boxes by the pound. I sell 5lb mystery boxes for $35 on Poshmark.

    When I purchase 5lbs from the Goodwill, it only costs $8.45, leaving me with a $19.55 profit per box, which includes Poshmark’s 20% Fee. I recommend driving and have an empty trunk for all of your amazing finds!

    Housing Works Buy the Bag

    159 28th St, Brooklyn, NY 11232

    My Favorite part about this place, is that it’s walking distance to me!

    It’s exactly like the Goodwill which I mentioned above, just smaller. They charge a flat rate to fill one of their bags with clothing.
    I do find this location carries more outdated styles however, vintage is gold and is always in high demand. Just because
    you won’t wear it, does not mean someone else won’t!

    I once found a vintage pair of long pastel pink evening gloves. I sold them for $54 on Ebay within a week!

    All of these stores are easy to get to when using public transportation however, I recommend driving.

    Caution

    When buying second hand or thrifted items, always assume they’re fake!

    Thrift stores are always filled with counterfeit items, be very careful when buying what you think are brand names.

    Always have items authenticated when in doubt.

    You can find many websites who authenticate for a small fee online. Remember, there are no returns when purchasing second hand items, even if it’s fake. We hop you found this Poshmark review to be informative!
