127th lol... Goals advice is spot on and works in any earning environment. One thing you haven't mentioned about using multiple platforms is using them without cross listing. Or in other words listing different items on different platforms (advantages/disadvantages). Copying platform advice is spot on too, you sell clothes that are easy to find. I can't source those clothes you find easy in my area, in the midwest. Most clothes get worn out, donation type sourcing is slim pickings from all I've seen.

I am a homeschooling mother of 4 whose husband out his job last September. I launched my ebay selling 2 days after we found out. Being brand new I didn't start out with longterm goals. I just wanted to help us survive. Now I am a top rated seller and I know that I'm good at this. My goals currently are to sell 10 items per day with a net profit of $11.50. We live frugally and that would replace his past income which we were comfortable on. And his future income will be gravy for savings.

Just starting out and I'm finding if I list 10-13 items/day, 7 days a week, I get at least 5 sales consistently each day. My goal is to get that up to 30+ per day, 5 days a week. Jan so far has been a struggle for time/ability with covid going through our home, but I'm confident I can reach and maintain my goal starting in February.

@@sdillon4605 My 30+ goal is a longer term goal and hopefully by that point I will be seen as a top rated seller with history to prove my products/service. Currently I've only received 7 feedback and I hope when my feedback goes up, so does buyer confidence, theoretically making my sales to listed ratio better. When I said at least 5, I meant that's been my minimum daily sales, most days are closer to 8-10 sales. Worst case, I will need to reevaluate my sourcing and do better if sales don't increase as daily listing increases. This is my guess for the future. Like I said, I'm just starting on ebay, but have been an online seller of various goods for years, so we will have to see. What I do need to figure out is how to get more people to want to leave feedback.

@@sdillon4605 Could be because some of your items are better than others. Think of it this way an amazing deal will always sell almost immediately after listed or within hours if listed well by a trusted seller. Many will discount items that sit too long looking at date listed. Its better to break even and create space for better items thats why retailers clearance. As long as you dont lose hardly anything. If u focus 1 or 2 niches you will master your items and know if it will sell quickly

I am still struggling with the idea of listing things as an “amazing deal” when this means leaving a lot of profit on the table, compared to if I waited longer and priced at more of an average price. I also wonder if once I decide to drop my price into an “amazing deal” range eBay’s algorithm has already decided my item isn’t selling and they should bury my listing. I’m trying to figure the best way to take down old listings and repost them, but I can’t let that take away from sourcing and listing…

15 a day every single day! Most days I can easily do more than 15. Others I choose to do less. But I don’t hear anyone talking about the draft bank. You have to use the draft bank so you can consistently list your goal daily!!! Net income before taxes for a month is $3000. That’s 36k a year. Takes only avg 2 to 3 hrs a day for everything. Then I use this side business as Chris says to move money to passive income. I buy real estate for passive income. Have 12 rentals now. Retired at 55. Still doing eBay. Thanks, Chris- I watch all your videos. You are spot on.

I appreciate being reminded to set a listing goal. I often find it hard to focus, especially when feeling overwhelmed. I have a huge death pile. Having a concrete, realistic goal can only help me with that. I also loved it when you said "Don't cross-list." I only sell on eBay and keep thinking I should be cross-listing somewhere else, but I haven't because... hmm, I really don't want to. I have a hard enough time focusing on the one platform as it is. People often say, "Don't put all your eggs in one basket; eBay could shut you down at any time." Well, I first joined eBay in 1999 and they haven't done it to me yet, so... after I set my listing goal, I'll continue with what works for me and focus on eBay. I'm comfortable there. Thanks for this video.

I will agree with you on one point, this video killed it! So on the money with your topic! I've been watching you almost a year now, stopping here and there because it didn't apply to me, I'm not a big store, I sell few clothes, no employees. But I didn't stop watching because one piece of advice didn't apply to me, I listened to the advice that did and it's helping me learn and stay motivated and positive! I'm a one person very part time who is still learning. Because of my other job and taking care of a house (just me and my husband but he's a lot of work lol!) I get behind it sidetracked. But I am becoming more focused in setting realistic goals. We have enough to be comfortable but in the last year very part time we've made 5 extra house payments on a 15 year mortgage. That's something to be proud of at 60! So thanks Chris for not always having information I need but having good content, tips, and motivational support. You're the best!

I plan to list 5x daily average starting two weeks ago for 25x a week. I'm down 60 with a snowstorm coming that will keep me in for a few days. I just got some background setups established and my first listings will all be in the same category, lightweight, and easy to pack. I created my first draft listing a few hours ago then decided to read more fine print from ebay and the bank. I will consider myself successful if I clear $50.00 taxable profit before April 1, 2022. I'm retired and this is hobby selling to get rid of clutter I inherited and have had stored for years without using. I'm treating it like a game and have dropped some online gaming time to do this.

Thank you for your continued excellent information. I's a reminded to keep going forward. I've achieved my goal of listing 15 items a day by the end of January. On the days when life gets hectic I still manage to list five items because I typically batch photos and drafts. I'm still not at the level of income I need, so my goal for February is to get to 20 listings a day. I have a plan in place to get there. Currently, my store items (1200) are in my closet and spilling into the office. A week ago I rented a second storage unit and bought shelves. I'm in the process of moving everything for sale into the unit. Then I can use the office as a processing center to prep, photograph, and after a sale pack items. This clears the mess, clears my mind. It's less convenient, but better in the long run, mentally. My first storage unit is 10x10 and a jumbled mess of items to keep and sell. With the new space in the office, I can bring in 20 items or more a day to process to sale. At the end of February, I'll reassess the situation and process.

I was watching a short video about cross listing. The whole time watching, I was thinking: "why do you want to cross list and take the risk to sell something you only have 1 of at two platforms at the same time?". The "stress" when you sell it at 1 platform and ASAP have to remove it from the other is smashing your focus to pieces in my opinion. You can sell on different platforms, but just do that item wise (or if you have multiple, 1 on each). Focussing on the message screen continuously is a pain in the ass. You divide your day into "pieces". I like that.

2021 was our first year as a full time reselling couple. This years goal is to double what we did last year on eBay. We want to list at least 50 items a week. Our buying criteria has definitely changed, we aren't buying items just because they are $1-2/piece. We want items that sell for $20 profit+ It seems to be working for us! Thanks for the great video.

I agree. using list perfectly for only a couple weeks I noticed it took longer to list and just spread me out too thin for my situation. canceled last night and took all my listings off of mercari and posh. I did not like mercari at all.

Item price can go up even if it’s 30 items !! But I do realize now that without a huge store it’s not as profitable!! I do agree with planning!

I understand what you are saying. If you have a lot of items, almost 1000 listings, you will drive yourself crazy listing and unposting items from all the different platforms that you list on. But use your common sense. I have almost 250 items because that’s all that I can afford. The items are expensive and the return on the investment is marginal. MY GOAL is to turn them as quickly as possible. That’s my personal goal.

Makes more sense to not cross post if you’re small also. I can’t believe how many people still don’t get that, I’ll have to make another cideob

I'm in a tough spot with this. I've been an everything seller and I absolutely waste time researching everything. I was a member of your patreon for a while and I learned a lot so I switched to clothing and it's been tougher because I don't know exactly the best items. I've spent a lot buying bad items but it's all been a lesson. I wish I could know for sure that what I buy will sell. That's where I feel lost with clothing. Comps show solds but my stuff doesn't move. I've been adjusting my price but it's still slow and it's a bit scary right now. Thanks for pushing me into uncomfortable territory. That's where growth is.

If only I could have heard this 2 years ago! I did exactly what you are warning about. I bought items that were on the magical BOLO list! Everything you just said is so true, and I know because I did listen to people on KZbin. I am pretty sure I spent way too much money before I even sold anything. Now I'm just trying to sell, just to get it out of my home. It's depressing and I'm overwhelmed. I have proof, from my death pile that has turned into a cemetery. Thankfully I am married to a man that pays all the bills, or else I would be living on the street. Tina

Right now it's 7 items a day that are 100+% sell trough that at a minimum double my money. I do this while raising a kid, a full time plus (50 hrs) job, and still find time to spend with the family. Primarily I am focused on paying debt which includes student loans. Hopefully after be able to invest intelligently to retire by the age of 55 with an income that is stable.

It's interesting to think about the fact that if you cross-post then your attention is split. I think that can be somewhat true, but maybe focus on 2 and get really good at them.

I prefer to have systems instead of goals but I don't list daily because I'm more of a do a ton all at once kind of person. Do a bunch of cleaning all in one day/week. Same with ebay, car and house repair. I doubt I will ever get to a place where I will have a listing goal but if I do I will.

(I say young because I'm 66yrs old) I sell to put my godson through college because he isn't as fortunate as your lovely daughter, he has a awful father. So congratulation for getting it at a young age. Thank you for all you do for all the resellers out there.
