Merci!!

Hello Ann I really appreciate you for giving this presentation because I don't want to be on camera. You are so wonderful to show us how to do it. I'm trying to get whatnot up and going. Thank you so much Ann😊

Thank you for doing this Ann.....I am camera shy. I signed up to sell with you as my referral about a week ago. Still waiting to hear if I get approved. Really hope so. I've got my items ready to go. PS: The phone stand was on a lightning deal today when I ordered it!!!!

You can do it!

Ann, I appreciate your video, and I have this little plastic camera stand I got at $5 Below lol! So, I am going to get the one you just showed thanks for the link! I have a question. Can you, or anyone out there share with me how on earth is everyone running items so quickly! I feel like it's the big secret no one is talking about. So the way I do my show is with a lap top and a cell phone. The cell phone for video and lap top to run all my items. All the items are pre listed before a show, and that is the way to actually do it according to Whatnot's instructions, but how are sellers running items so fast that aren't prelisted? Sometimes, people will ask me if I have items that I have not prelisted yet, or they want to bundle several items I just never got around to listing.... I have to to an add on and I have to stop, put in all the info including weight, go back in the list to find the item to run it, and it takes me too much time and I loose people in my chat because of it. Also, like I see sellers at flea markets, estate sales, just coming across items buyers see for the very first time! Sellers are lightening fast putting in those items and running! Is it a setting, are they just using a cell phone, and not a lap top combination? Do you know how? I would greatly appreciate an answer from you or anyone out there! Thank you.

Thanks, my son had his first whatnot on Saturday for sport cards. We didn’t know computer and phone could run at the same time.

I was in a whatnot sale where the seller did not have their phone alerts muted and you could hear things going off the entire time. It was very annoying.

Excellent video, to the point no extra chit chat easy to follow. Thank you for sharing your setup (it makes sense)!

If I’m running everything via my desktop/ laptop how do I make sure my camera on my phone is connected at the same time? Is there a button that I have to press in my whatnot seller hub on the website?

Oh gosh Thank you!!! I am have been searching and searching for a video explanation like yours. I have worrying about not having a second person to hep me with the auctions. I am inspired!

Hi Ann great tips and setup. How did you tie the phone images and computer information together for the broadcast. What links them? I have OBS for Twitch but I haven’t learned a setup for WhatNot yet on OBS. Thanks for the tips and sharing your knowledge.

Hopefully she reply’s to your question

Thanks for the Video. - I am really thinking about doing my 1st Whatnot show. I was approved , but am scared and have not yet done anything on getting set-up for my 1st show. What is the device called that holds your phone and also provides light and about how much does it cost? I also do not use an I phone. I have an Android phone. Is that any problem on getting set up for my first possible show. Thanks again for doing this video. Barry

What brand is your weighted cellphone holder? Also can do larger items with this setup like sweatshirts

Thanks! This helps. 🎉

Question does whatnot keep tabs of the purchase and who bought or you do it yourself

About the tripid-- You can also THAT also..as a write-off on your taxes....😊

I did take ur advice using yes the bag system w number I got stickers that will help me for the day there 7 colors and 1-100 I can’t imagen the shipping omfg we really neee a laser printer like a dymo or what ever there’s no way we can do it w regular printer omg

Thank you so much for explaining everything to us in detail. Definitely subbed so I can learn more from you. !!!

Thank you so much for this video! I am a new seller on Whatnot & this helped me a ton on how to set up!

My 1st few shows where awful...1st one I had only my phone...computer wouldn't link and the second one my phone kept going from front camera to back camera and I was so grrrrr...

Ann, do I run the show on my phone or computer? Or both?

use phone only as camera and then enter item on another device like computer. Start show though with phone and then go to that current auction again on your computer to enter items. My problem is I keep having to reboot the auction on my phone

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but can I use my phone horizontally? My tripod can only hold it that way :(

Not a dumb question at all! For WhatNot sales, you cannot film horizontally; your phone needs to be vertical. You can find adjustable phone stands on Amazon for under $10. :-)

This was very helpful, thank you.

So if i sell clothes do i have to be on camera? I have been approved but can not figure out if i have to show my face or not.

Thank you for the information in your video.I went to the link on Amazon, and they made the base smaller. 🤦‍♀️

Simple and to the point! Great video!

hi Ann. I've been using my iphone 8 but keep having to reboot auction. Are there certain setting i need to set on my phone to avoid being disconnected?

Hi Ann, I am going crazy trying to get my first live going. I have an android phone, and an HP Laptop and cannot get anything to work when trying to do a test stream. Can you do a video of doing an actual sale with the screens showing and how you access the screens and buttons/toggles/pins, etc?? I am NOT computer illiterate, but this system has me so deflated!

What equipment do you need to purchase prior to starting. I have a phone and laptop, I know a laser printer is needed.

I love clear white background the lamp etc

17:41 I want to say thank you for the information and the videos on how to run sales online. I have never done this before. I am wondering when it comes to selling online and learning everything just to be able to start what is the very first video I should watch to learn how to run sales online and understand the steps, process, rules everything? This is like foreign language because I've never done it so confusing

Very helpful. Thank you!

Do you schedule the sale for whenever you want it to be? I want to sign up but I’m afraid I’m not ready yet exactly so I want some time to get ready. Also what percentages do they take out?

@AnnEckhart

You can schedule your shows at any time. You aren't obligated to ever have a sale. I think their total fees are 11%.

Do you have to log in to whatnot both Devices?

Thanks for all ur help I watched a couple ur videos for WhatsApp or whatnott sorry confused but I can’t wait how do I find u

Where did you get your tripod please

Thank you so much for this video

What is that phone holder called? You never did link it.

How do you number your items I went in and hit edit and put 001 on the same line as the item and it only showed up on the first one but none of the rap

Thank you 😊

Thank you so much for this awesome video 💞🙏🏽

How do i find this tripod

So helpful! Thank you!

I have same set up kinda but so cute I see it that’s right we can turn the camera and type on our iPad or computer. Wow u sell these ???? Let me tell u how I find very cheap squishy mellows omg 😱 after holidays 70-90-% at Kroger etc also there’s a store 5 below which isn’t everywhere there’s some there roon

I've done a few test streams using my phone as the camera and the pc to run the auction. I can't hear my own voice via the phone microphone. (I did a mic test with a free app and mic is working fine) I have the sound on the pc muted because it echoes and reverberates my voice. I fear that if I can't hear my voice, the auction audience won't either. Is there something I need to do to hear myself on my cell phone, or is it normal that you don't hear your own voice during the livestream?

Very helpful thanks

Perfect.... Looks like I need a laptop

What do you mean by “pin it”. Do you run your laptop off of WiFi or are you hardwired to internet?

@AnnEckhart

Жыл бұрын

"Pin it" is the term WhatNot calls putting the item you are going to auction off in front of the buyers. You "pin" the next item that is for sale, show it on camera and talk about it for a few seconds, and then you run the auction. Hope that makes sense!

I need to see what you see on your laptop and what buttons to push LoL This gave me some good information though

Thank you

Can you use a phone and a tablet? I have an ipad but no computer

Yes, an iPad will work....or two phones. You can run the show completely on your phone, but I just think it works better with two devices.
