Nicely done! This is the kind of content that needs to happen more often, educational AND entertaining! I’ve been reselling for over 3 years now, (went full-time in Nov) and have been on the sideline with the whole Whatnot thing, but this video answers some of my pressing questions about getting started. Thanks Josh!

I've watched this twice, because I was certain I was missing a step somewhere. You have no idea how helpful your video is for someone like me (a wannabe seller with a death pile but zero patience for the time and dedication to be meticulous with ebay's demands). You've inspired me more than all the flippers I've watched religiously over the past 5+ years. Thank you, thank you, thank you! ❤✌🌮

Hairy, thank you for this video. I just had my very first Whatnot stream last Saturday? And it was awesome. I had so much fun. And the nervousness I felt right before it started went away just as fast. The people who came in were nice and helpful. They wanted to buy things. I even got raided 3/4 of the way through the show, which I thought was crazy and would never happen to me. So whoever thinks they can't do this, please know that you can, don't wait until you have what you think you need all this stuff just to get started, just do it. Thanks Hairy.

That was great!!! I love how you constantly contradict the naysayers. The first series I watched from you was making $1000 in a month starting from picking up the golf bag by the side of the road for free. You showed people it can be done. You also showed people that they CAN buy a cheap house without costing and an arm and a leg. In the meantime, others sit and moan and complain that the system is against us here in the states. It is so much more interesting to watch people who are doing it and share how they did it. Thanks! I'm not even a reseller!

@beckypetersen2680 Hello Becky. Reading your comment brought back a lot of memories from a few years ago. I don't think it was the first video of his that I watched as I've followed him for several years, even before Hayley joined the business. If I remember correctly the show you are speaking of was a challenge he issued to himself to prove to people that even someone that didn't have any followers could make a $1,000 in a month. And yes, he started his 'new' business with that golf bag. Sold it then reinvested the money he received and purchased a few more items. He is able to contradict his naysayers because he is and always has been, completely honest. Even when he makes a mistake. This means that people can 'make up' some complaint or argument. He is able to 'shoot them down' because what they are saying is nothing but a bunch of hot air. They have nothing to back up what they are saying.

Wow! I didn’t know it was so easy. I would have an issue showing my face, and now I know I don’t have to. Thanks for this!

@HairyTornado ​​⁠ I would recommend getting a haul from the goodwill bins and testing out how they would sell on the new account. That would be more realistic approach from others who are trying to get started. Appreciate the video

Love it!

That was fun! You and Hayley always have such interesting ideas! Thanks so much!

No hate to Josh, love the videos, but this one was a miss. I don't think anyone ever said that being successful on Whatnot is "luck" - the criticism is usually that you became successful (again, not "lucky") on Whatnot so quickly because you came onto the platform with an already established following and were able to advertise your shows to hundreds of thousands of people. It wasn't "luck" that you sold that Game Boy - it was nothing more than a reseller seeing an opportunity to buy something at 50% off what it regularly sells for, fix it, and quadruple their investment. Anyone could have done this, and your argument that it would have been more work to sell it on eBay isn't really valid because an item like this would have sold for $30 with a single photo, a title that said "broken game boy advance sp" and literally nothing else filled out on the listing. It still remains difficult to sell items that aren't in demand (like your Game Boy is) for enough money on a consistent enough basis to be considered "successful" on Whatnot, and that's the main way you guys make money on there. If you sell on Whatnot solely to sell items to resellers, with a business model that allows you to sell them for so low that the buyer can still profit, then that's one way to get started, but I don't think that's what you were trying to show with this video. To truly show that "anyone can be successful on Whatnot" you would have to do some kind of long-term experiment where you took someone with no previous Whatnot/KZread experience (I say this because people that are already comfortable on camera will always have an easier time with this, and the vast majority of resellers aren't as comfortable), start them with a new account, and have them try and sell the things you guys regularly sell - clothing, plush, toys, some sporting goods, etc. It would be difficult for them to gain enough footing on the platform to use it as a significant income stream, and I don't think they'd ever be able to get to the level you're at. Some will succeed, but it's a tough go. I'd love to be proved wrong - a video experiment showing this would do great on KZread but I don't know how feasible it is.

@HairyTornado

2 ай бұрын

The word “luck” is just used in the title because I’ve seen other popular KZread videos use it when doing stuff like this. It’s just for SEO purposes. I get what you’re saying. I’m also 100% confident that if I did this experiment over the course of 30 or 45 or 60 days that I would be successful, but do you really think anyone that isn’t convinced now would be convinced then? I could start 10 different secret Whatnot accounts and grow all of them simultaneously and people would still doubt my results or credit my results to something that they themselves don’t possess or have the ability to do. Whether or not people choose to sell on whatnot has no effect on me. Im just trying to encourage people to give it a shot, because they might have what it takes to make it. I think we also need to remember that I’m not asking people to make some huge sacrifice or give me a bunch of money. Just try it and see what happens. Worst case scenario is that you don’t sell anything and then you just go back to eBay or wherever else you want to sell. Thanks for the comment.

@@HairyTornado "but do you really think anyone that isn’t convinced now would be convinced then?" Yes, if you truly "started over from scratch" (so to speak), people would be more convinced than what was shown in this video. But to do so, you'd have to get an unknown to start selling on the platform like I mentioned and try to obfuscate their relationship to you by any means possible. The second that anyone found out they were connected to you the experiment would be ruined. You would have to document their progress over several months completely in secret (obviously, you giving them all the help you can, as you try to do on this channel), and then compile the data - would make for a very interesting video I would think.

Hey Josh, Hayley and Mose! So I started whatnot at the same time you did when you started promoting a couple of years ago I think and it was fun but I got discouraged. Now after my breakup with Chewy, I decided to give whatnot a try on a full-time schedule since March. Im doing shows almost every day in different categories. Not gonna lie, it hasn't been easy, especially pregnant and with all types of symptoms lol, but I do enjoy whatnot and the community and I am slowly growing. Got to 1,000 followers and now my goal is to get to 1,000 sales! It's not easy and it's definitely not for everyone and it is a lot of work for one person but it's not impossible and I do enjoy it. I still list on my other platforms, but I pray this becomes my main platform where I generate enough income to not work for someone else's dream. Wish me luck! - Koko

It's harder to sell on Whatnot in Canada, I scare everyone away because I am in Canada. Shipping is expensive and I hear that all the time from the USA buyers and Whatnot sellers that are n the USA. Whatnot caters to USA because it is based in the USA. I still go on because it is fun but hardly sell anything. I get excited just making a $5 sale lol. Hopefully Whatnot will get cheaper delivery options for the Canadian sellers. Time will tell. Canada to U.S. Shipping Costs For US buyers purchasing from Canadian sellers, shipping for your first item starts at $10.50 and increases based on weight. Weight Common items Price 0.1-1 oz LEGO / Pins $10.50 2-3 oz Booster Pack $10.50 4-7 oz Single Comic Book $12.00 8-11 oz Regular-Sized Funko Pop $14.75 12-15 oz Action Figures $15.00 1-2 lbs Bear Brick $18.25 2-3 lbs 10-inch Funko Pop $21.00 3-4 lbs Booster Box/Sneakers $23.75 This is what us Canadian's deal with shipping prices TO THE USA!

Hairy, good morning!thank you for sharing those tips to us! I just finished my very first show on whatnot last night, I sold 26 items, people in my show are so so nice! Even someone send me tips! We have so much fun in the live show! Now I’m still trying to figure out how to ship the items to my great clients ! 😂😂

As a seasoned 25 year reseller I have to say that putting a somewhat desired item on the platform for a super reasonable price is a bit misconstruing for most. I started in March and without much of a following, doing 2 shows a week I have finally started to see a few good bidding wars. I think youtubers that have an amazing following don't really get the struggle of not having that. My biggest show so far averaged about 10 people. Just wanted to point this out. I absolutely love your channel and all the amazing content.

I just started Whatnot almost 2 months ago. Only have done 6 shows so far but it has been fun and just hit 100 sales! Keep up the good work!

Harry that was soooooo crazy….i guess u proved your point. You are so motivational! No excuses now!

This is great content. First show is the hardest part for sure.

That was SO fun to watch!!! I can’t believe it sold that fast!!! That’s awesome!! I always thought you had to have a huge amount of followers on your socials to be accepted on WhatNot.

oK, WE DOING IT!!! lol Mommas needs some light bill money. lol

This was soooo very helpful. It's nice to see how truly easy it can be!

Hey Josh and Hayley! Just gotta say I loved the video. I’ve been on whatnot casually selling for a bit but have really only had success selling DVDs in bulk. I found a lot of like 13 Disney pins the other day thrifting and decided I’d try selling them in the new category on WN. Within 20 minutes or so they were all sold. I did lot them up but the point is that I tried a new category and not a single follower was in the show and I got rid of all of them. So 1) I started small 2) I had fun and 5) I sold the right stuff! Need to work on 3 & 4 lol. But point is as little as the show was I sold the pins at a profit, got new followers and got asked for another show! Now I just need to find more pins! Lol. Thanks for this and all videos!

This is super helpful Josh! I have been following you since maybe your 1️⃣st #KZread video. I think. But it's such a good time always 😊 I needed this video. I've been procrastinating #whatnot and you are making me want to get involved with the fun side. I'm a character by all means and if I get to do that too and sell? Well Golly 😂 💟☮️💋

excellent advice Josh! well done!

I will take all your great tips to heed. Hats off to you. Its entertainment retailing. To gain audience, be fun, have fun an Fun deals. Its not the card, its the deals. $30!!, when most go for $65 and entertained his audience to the fullest. 20 min, for the full sale plus SH, DONE, increadble. thank you for those words of wisdom, appercated.

Thanks for showing us the behind the scenes process

They are matching $150! at least they are for me, just had my first show 3weeks ago and it went quite well! Love your vids!

This is Amazing Feedback it sure helps. Thank you for your videos and for being you God Bless

I really enjoyed this video > Thanks JOSH

So interesting! Thanks for the info 👍 Cant wait for this in Aus 🇦🇺

Great video! This was ffun to watch. :)

What a great video, Josh! You are a wonderful teacher. Thank for doing this!

Informative! Thank you. Basically you need a white box for display, a computer and label printer, camera, a phone or pad to watch your chat. If using your phone as the camera, can you see the chat? Many play music in the background too. I’m going to watch the seller videos, they’ll probably answer all my questions. lol

Yes you can use your phone to see the chat. :)

This was a lot of great information. Thank you.

He is correct the approval does come very fast . I was approved the same day !

Thanks for the video Josh! I got approved a year ago, but still haven’t gotten myself to jump in from EBay. Would be more helpful if we had a bins closer, but still I want to take the leap!

Awesome vid man. Great walkthrough of the app ❤

Thanks! 😊

Fantastic video I’m starting on what not soon appreciate the advice

What fun video Josh.

Quick question that might be considered obvious to some, but figured I'd ask someone that would know - if you don't have a label printer will it still let you print the shipping address etc from a normal printer so you can just tape it on? Again sorry for the probably obvious question 😅

You’re the man I’m ready to start

These are awesome tips man

The rain was great. 😂

I'm glad whatnot changed their policy for sellers. I tired to sign up very early on when they first started and I got rejected. I tried again recently and got accepted. 😊. Still working up the nerve to have a first sale.

Wish I had your energy! that is probably a huge component to your selling success.

Hugh energy definitely helps to create a fun environment

Not meaning to be that guy but it’s based on what you sell and even that the buyers want stuff for free I’ve streamed for 2 years selling sneakers basically streaming for 12 hours a day everyday, earned almost 7 thousand followers and still could sell a shoe for a literal dollar and a $150 shoe for $20 on a good day. Your one of my favorite channels but my opinion and many others I know and whatnot is not the market to be on unless your known most of the points made was to stream, be different and expect small returns til you get fans and I have all that and done all that and does nothing because there’s 10k+ ppl on to watch the biggest streamers and just to off them. They just get what they want and leave and you’ll never see that person or group that bought those $1 shoes ever again or expect for you to do that for the rest of your career of they’ll unfollow or gossip

You excitement is so fun!

so interesting... I had 0 interest in trying out whatnot and after your real life example, I'm literally considering signing up!
