Your son is blessed to have a father who loves him like you do ..I have 2 boys myself
Jeeze man, that hits the heart.
I have to thank my dad because I now understand all he sacrificed for me my brother.
I hope to give my son a brother.
Thanks a lot for making my day.
I agree with you trying to schedule my RUclips content was crazy! Sometimes i would be up in the middle of the night doing the editing part. The filming part is easy but when you re-watch your footage you see all of your mistakes lol. Since i started putting out my ship with me videos i started getting new views and subscribers. When it is just a one man\woman show its like having 10 jobs in one lol. A schedule is essential in this business. Im loving my journey and thankful that I get a chance to do this job. Service, income and enjoying what I love which is shopping and saving clothing from land fields. All a win win!
Your family is blessed to have you!
Thank you for this great content.
@@LawonneWatson Exactly, well said. 👍
I love your honesty on how you work, exercise, the money you make and everything you do. There shouldn’t anything to hide in this game. Most of my friends know I sell and I tell them anything they want to know. Its work but fun. Thanks for all the videos.
I appreciate that.
I'd say sourcing routes and times are something to keep close to the chest but other than that I think it comes down to consistency and will to do work.
Found your channel a couple weeks ago and I must say, you have helped me with the process of selling on ebay. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Thanks, welcome to the team. 🫡
Thank you for the video! Was great to see the schedule & shipping process..ready for the cheesy video edition with the coffee pouring 😁🎉
I’m going to save that video for February 😂
@@TaylorExchange Yayy..gonna bookmark that one haha 😆
Keep grinding bro
Will do 🫡
New sub here ! This video as great ! Super helpful! ❤
Sweet!
Thanks Nicole
Hey Sean, hope everything is going well! I love the idea for this video and I'm someone who really, really likes to have a solid routine. I have a part-time employee as well who almost exclusively photographs & measures items for me. Here's what my life looks like (and I run on 2 week cycles): I source every Thursday and every other Monday in a nearby city. Sourcing days are early mornings to pull and pack orders and get on the road so that I'm at the first store on my circuit when they open. I'll source more or less all day and head home so I can have dinner with my family and help with the evening routines for the kids. Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays and my "off" sourcing Mondays are all about the same during the winter months -- I prep items for photography, manage inventory, pack & ship orders, address customer service issues and returns as well as all of the listing. When the weather is nice, I usually work half days at least 2 days a week and will work outside around my acreage those afternoons. Gardening, building things, taking care of livestock, mowing, maintenance, etc.
Since I have to travel to source (like you do), I think it really helps to have a set sourcing schedule. It takes time though to figure out what stores make sense to stop in more frequently and what stores aren't worth stopping in at all. Believe it or not, I actually have a reselling coaching client on the south side of the Metroplex and I've been down there several times to DFW to source with him and get a lay of the land of what it's like down there. He has 120 thrift stores within an hour of his house. It's insane trying to figure out what stores to stop in, when the sales are, who puts out good inventory and how much they put out and when they put it out. I really have been challenged by the circumstances he's dealing with. I can't imagine sourcing in that area and having a 4 hour commute to get in there. Would make it so much tougher!
That's a great breakdown and schedule.
Ya the Metroplex is vast and full of thrift stores. I don't know if you've seen "K and M Resell" on RUclips but that's my friend Mike and his wife. They live down there and have a 90k 90 day total. It's a 2 person team but the proximity to all those stores is what gets you the opportunity for great items.
I pretty much just scrap the bottom and find what I can. I plan to make 2 trips a week and see if I can work the business that way. Definitely more driving than I like but until my other incomes increase I believe this is the move.
If I remember right my client and I have decided that his best path forward is to hit the Thrift Giants and the other thrifts that have reasonably proximity to them in the Lewisville/Frisco/Plano areas and focus on them. There's still probably 50 stores in a 20 mile radius that can all be counted on to get good inventory. And yes, I've seen the K&M channel and watched a few of their videos. I have no doubt the proximity helps them out a great deal.
@@3acresandacow Ya they are doing well on eBay and RUclips now. The Thrift Giants are great.
It’s pretty outrageous that your 1 year old isn’t helping with photos and packing by now.
Haha tell me about it.
Glad you liked the jacket. Great sales
Thanks Pete, Seth loves it!
Should be great for next season.
I love to schedule tasks. Photographing is my least favourite task so I like to photograph only 2 days a week. I utilize eBay’s scheduled listing so I create my weeks listings in two days and schedule them to go live all week.
Yes, photos are a bit dull.
Scheduling listings is a great idea. 👍
Yes , a quick show how you refill your boxes without messing up your numbers .
I have a video on how I store these but I’ll try and mention it in another video. 👍
Oh...I meant your boxes are never half empty ( full )
@@kirstenscholz4482 Uhhh not sure what you mean? Like condensing down the inventory?!
Do you fill up one box with the shirts from the next box and that one with the next and so on ? ...my english is not so good , it`s ok !
@@kirstenscholz4482 Oh ok, no worries my English isn’t that great either 🤦♂️
Yes pretty much the items snake into each other. Item 2 behind 1 and 3 behind 2 then if item 2 sells item 3 falls in behind item 1.
It sounds like you’re not really into eBay anymore and you’re trying to find a way out. It seems like a lot of the RUclips eBay people that I followed Are trying to get away out are or have already quit. It’s really discouraging but that’s life I guess. Good luck in your endeavors. Thank you for the Content.
Great analysis.
If you zoom out you’ll see the writing on the wall. Tech n Sports being the biggest clothing reseller is stepping away because the business is not as easy or profitable as it once was.
Part time I believe this business is a great option but if it’s someone’s sole income I think it’s wise to diversify and learn another business or skill.
I feel ya. I have sourcing. I used to love it. Like everyone else. It gets old after awhile. Especially if u do a all day like that.
Yup, I also feel like I have to keep a look out for crazy people. I worry about my car in those parking lots at times as well.
@@FromWritertoReseller That’s good. 👍
I’d rather list than source.
"That's the goal, to raise children to be men"... haha That made me laugh. I knew you meant boys to men but it sounded funny 😂 lol
Haha well Boys II Men was taken. 😂
I only have the one son right now and still pretty confident I’ll have a second.
But yes, to clarify boys = men.
Great content man! How or where do you get all those boxes? They are perfect for that set up … thank you!
Thanks, I’ve got them linked in the description.
I get them from Uline.
AND, you can write off twice as many miles!
Yes, that’s a big deduction for the business.
@@TaylorExchange I do Amazon and Walmart spark. The mileage deduction eliminates about 75% of my taxable income.
@@WayneTradingCompany Nice 👍
Hello, sort of new "full time" reseller here. In your video, you mentioned that you aim for a certain amount of items to buy from the thrift stores you source from. Do you worry about sell through rates at all or do you more focus on the volume of your inventory in your store to make your money?
Sell through rate is extremely important, I don’t just buy anything although I have a lot of space to store items so I don’t mind some slower moving items.
How much would you recommend reinvesting back into inventory?
Ideal situation is you make more money profit each week then you spend on inventory.
No right answer as it depends on your personal budget and finances.
Bar math for me would be maybe 30% of incoming sales per week. 4.5k sales a week and spend 1.5k
But if I came across an opportunity to spend 5k-10k I’d have to make the investment if I think the return is there.
Have you considered finding someone to source for you? Or someone who would wholesale source for you and ship it all to you?
Yes and have yet to find a profitable way to do that. Training someone to source would be the way to go but very difficult and costly.
@@TaylorExchange would contacting you through Instagram be better?
Awesome video! Why do you store the clothes unsealed? Would like to know, thanks!
There are many times that the weight is just over 8 or 12oz so if you remove the bag you can save money by dropping into the cheaper shipping range.
Thank you for all you do! Can you help me with the size of bag i need to get for shirt for jeans and for coats etc. thank you so much
Big coats don’t fit in bags, unless you bought huge ones. I hang up my bigger coats.
The two clear size bags I use are 10x13 and 14.5x19
@@TaylorExchange thank you. Greatly appreciated. Take care and all the best!
Going to be interesting tax season, last year I had w2 from a job and then I input my ebay income. This year is just ebay going to be weird with no w2. I've done my own taxes for 20 years so not super worried but it be different. Interesting video, definitely need to schedule my day better.
I think something people forget is to pay estimated taxes throughout the year. I have a CPA who advises how much I need to send the IRS each quarter.
@@TaylorExchange Thanks for the heads up. Did my research and found the irs website online and just managed to get mine in 1/16. Believe this is the last day for 4th one.
@@dwfinds3030 I did the same thing 😂 whoops haha just in time.
Sean, when do you stop sourcing long sleeves and start buying for the next season?
I source all types of items through out the year. My stores leans heavy in the spring summer types though.
@@FromWritertoReseller Haha ya that works.
Hi Sean. When you ship your item out, do you use the same clear poly bag with your inventory number on it or do you switch it out? Thanks and I appreciate your advice.
Same bag. 👍
Yeeeeeeeeeeesssssss🤩😃
😂 Thanks Kristen 👍
Do you make those boxes or buy them that long? How many items do you fit in each box?
I buy them, about 18 jeans or 30 shirts.
you didn't say anything about the gym being in your schedule?
I’ll admit this video did not do justice to show a detailed schedule. I’ll make another video with better quality.
Between 4pm - 5pm I get my workout in or I do it at night from 8:30pm - 9:15pm
Recumbent bike 6-6:30am
