    Soooo happy to see Shelly do this interview! She is the absolute best and knows so much about brands, styles, etc. So lucky to work with her

    Shelly was refreshing to hear. I have sold on eBay since the early years. eBay has changed so much. The days of selling an item, waiting for the check to arrive in the snail mail, waiting for it to clear, and then mailing out the item. We had no cell phones with us to check comps. “We have come along way baby!”

    Wow! Amazing video! Tip for Shelly - I wear traditional Danskos (the clog type) to the bins & thrifting and they work Wonders to keep my back and knees from hurting. I used to shift my weight all day and now I can work just fine in those shoes!! Love the interview! Great job all around!!

    I’m so glad I watched this - truth be told I almost didn’t when I saw the word wholesale because I was thinking it was about buying liquidation 🤦🏻‍♀️ This was awesome info - first time it ever occurred to me to me that maybe I could sell stuff to other people 🤔thank you !

    Thank you...this answered a lot of questions that i had about wholesale. I'm an avid thrifter, and a part-time reseller. I just requested to join her FB group, as I'm very interested in becoming a wholesaler.

  • @LJack-ck8uh

    I would love to buy from a good wholesaler since I live in a thrifting desert. What little can be found is very expensive. $10 tops and more expensive dresses. And anything like Free People or even Vince is marked up to $30-50. I’ve tried a couple of mystery boxes and that was a complete waste of money. So I would think wholesalers could do quite well.

    • @mepperly07

      Join my FB group and you may be able to find a wholesaler there.

    Such an amazing and informative video! As a full time 9-5 worker and part time reseller I’ve been trying to figure out how to cut down on my time spent (sourcing, comping, cleaning, photographing, listing, marketing/sharing, etc. 😅). This video has been a godsend! I think I’m completely changing my business model and focusing fully on wholesaling moving forward. Thanks to you and now ALWAYS checking sell through, I’ve seen my business growing and with that knowledge would love to help some others!

      @@cayleyelaine I joined Shelley’s group and have been trying to soak up everything I can learn. I have my first buy call tomorrow and am so excited! I do think I have access to quite a bit of inventory you guys would like (I’ve been watching your videos for quite some time) and would love the opportunity to try work together if you are ever taking on additional clients!

    Hello, thank you so much for this video. Cayley, I have been following you for a very long time and have cheered with you as you have grown into outstanding weeks of profit --- aaaamazing. I live in an area where I could literally get 100 pounds of great stuff every day. How can I find the resellers that need me, or more importantly, my sourcing treasures. Please let me know, thank you.

      Hi! If you think the kinds of items you pick up would fit my business model I would love to take you on as a wholesaler! If so, send us an email at welltraveledclothiers@gmail.com and we can chat! You can also join Shelly's Facebook group linked in the description of this video to try and find other buyers.

    I just started Resale Butler and I am actually providing a platform for wholesalers to sell lots people are missing out I dropped 12 lots this Thursday and I have 1 left. And oh my gosh not having to share on Poshmark is the perk of the year haha

      I looked at your site and at the bottom of the page it says you search and comp every item yet you're selling mystery boxes? If you're really comping every single item is it really that hard to write up a quick manifest?

      Hello! If you go to the bottom of the course page there is a section called documents and resources. The live call schedule and links are there. We also have the same thing on the featured posts area on the Facebook group. Calls happen at the same days and times every week.

  • @mayakoyama9130
    @mayakoyama9130 Před 5 měsíci

    Is there a market for wholesale of items that need minor cleaning/stain treatment? I ended up with a huge death pile of items with minor flaws and I'm extremely burned out from stain treatment right now.
    I also hate dealing with dresses but still managed to amass a big pile of dresses from expensive brands that either need dry cleaning or just need to be steamed. At this point I'm not even 100% sure what all I have but I would be willing to get rid of them at my buy cost which is pretty low since I got a lot of them at the bins.

    • @cayleyelaine
      @cayleyelaine  Před 5 měsíci +1

      There's a market for everything. Just have to find the buyer.

    Does Shelly do comps? Or is that up to the reseller.

    • @cayleyelaine
      @cayleyelaine  Před měsícem

      It could be either. Really depends on how the wholesaler wants to setup their business. We always suggest that our wholesalers do comps because they will pickup less that we don't want. Most of them do the research before they go sourcing.

  • @sandilynn8010
    @sandilynn8010 Před 5 měsíci

    What would a whole seller do if you buy something and they don't take the item. Sell it or take it as a loss

    • @cayleyelaine
      @cayleyelaine  Před 5 měsíci +1

      I will ask Shelly what she does specifically but I believe most wholesalers try to find other avenues to sell it.

    • @mepperly07
      @mepperly07 Před 5 měsíci +1

      I do try to sell to others but some of it is a loss. As you get better at sourcing for your buyers the leftovers are less and less.

    As a wholesaler do you have to do a 1099?

    • @mepperly07
      @mepperly07 Před 5 měsíci +1

      A 1099 is something that you get from platforms you sell on. I do report my earnings and pay taxes as with any small business.

    • @cayleyelaine
      @cayleyelaine  Před 5 měsíci +1

      Being a wholesaler isn't any different than being a reseller in terms of taxes and being a business owner. Obviously they have a few variables but the entities tend to be the same.
