Neiman is such an inspirational speaker. He is so witty, smart and comfortable in front of the camera. And it is sooo adorable how he is soooo supportive of you Lauren.

Yeah, he’s a natural at it

YES, have him do a piece and then have a flipping virgin do one with YOU helping along the way, highlighting beginner errors, and how to circumvent them!

Love the idea of Neiman flipping a piece while Lauren does the camera and perhaps film editing. That would be hilarious!! I would love to see you guys do something on staging, posting pictures with descriptions, and taking pictures. Just love you both! You two are such a match and compliment each other so well in this business.

Here's a thought -- a newsletter in electronic format only, downloadable for a modest price. You have the stories, beginning, middle, end, "How I Re-did a China Hutch into a Coffee Bar," with illustrations, materials list (thank-you sponsors), and time it took, plus, "lessons learned," not necessarily mistakes but, "I realized afterward I could have ..." Or, "an alternative color scheme from (insert sponsor name) would have worked as well." Save them. Archive them. Then one day, the e-book, "How I Flipped Furniture, Started a Business and Changed My Life." Remember "The Martian," a best seller, began as a small project. Make one source of information, the furniture flipping process, work for you in a variety of formats. Finally, I've you've not taken a television production course or "How to Present Yourself in Media," do it. Learn public speaking -- no "ahs, ums," no reading. You have a great story, fashion it for each audience, business roundtable to kids in a classroom.

Brilliant idea!!

This video tells it all about why your channel grew a little fast. You are relatable, personable, and genuine. I've watched since you had around 300 subs. I've mentioned this in past videos but I really enjoyed the teaching aspects of the videos but I also enjoy both of your personalities. You make it fun to watch. 😁

Love this guys!!! I’m in the middle of my very first “real” flip; stripping sanding, minor repairs, painting, staining. So, beginner to beginner, I would love to see Neiman flip a piece. Thanks for sharing all your knowledge.

I am a full time care giver so flipping furniture couldn’t be full time for me yet. But thank you for your encouragement and mentoring. You guys are great to watch!😃

fantastic video! i love your couple dynamic. I can tell the love is strong and you also support and validate each other in a way that's really special. A pleasure to watch your channel grow and evolve :)

I love all of these tips! I'm working on my furniture flipping side hustle right now. Thanks for sharing all of your tips! Your story is inspiring 😊

My friend works in remote oil field jobs and is was out of work for 5 months and to earn some cash to make ends meet, he got into buying furniture on the cheap from estate auctions and flipping them for profit! I rent a room in his house and I've helped him fill his garage FULL of quality, beautiful furniture! But he finally got called back into work and he left me with the job of selling as much as possible to get his garage space back! Once we get our garage back, I'm hoping we can get more hands on in refurbishing the furniture. :)

Loved this video! Painting furniture is one income stream for me and love the girls few of more business content videos. I’m still learning and appreciate the reminder that it all takes patience! I would love to see Nieman paint a piece of furniture!!

Great advice Lauren and Neiman !! Both of you are so talented. Keep up the great work. I watch all of your videos and have learned a lot. Thanks for a great informative video !!

You two are great! Thanks for the tips. I'm glad things are working out so well for you.

Thanks for this video! I am in New Zealand and am looking at moving away from the daily grind of a career and getting back to my creative roots through flipping furniture. Thanks for being so honest about the pros and cons so that I can go into this with more realistic expectations :)

Yes, I would love to see Nieman paint a piece! I love seeing how you’ve grown!

Thank you for the input on your journey and how you got here. I love both of your work and straight talk. it does help those of us that want to learn to do this. I have worked on lots of antiques in the past, lol, I would remove the paint and restore the pieces to original wood stain, now it seems we are back to painting furniture. guess life does go in cycles. I have about 6 pieces in my shop, I will be flipping as you call it, and lets see how this goes. also I was approached by a friend to help him unload discarded furniture that he acquires from clearing homes, we are talking how we are going to go about this...any advise?

Very helpful tips thank you, I'm just in the process of starting my own furniture upcycling/ handyman business and you have been a massive inspiration to me and given me a sense of direction so thank you again! 😊

I love seeing the both of you working together. Really enjoyed this video. I learned a lot.

Love this video! Thank you for all the tip.

Thank you for your generous information 😊

i HAVE watched hundreds of videos because I wanted to get into flipping. I watched your linen and licorice video and knew exactly what I wanted to do in my kitchen. I wrote Beyond Paint because Linen was a little too dark. I had sent for samples. Plus I had green tile. They said to use/mix Linen and Off White with a dab of Forest Green. It is PERFECT. I have passed that picture and Beyond Paint on to at least 10 people online who were just asking advice. So me - as a rank amature - passed your video and Beyond Paint on to probably 100 or more people. I will start my kitchen next week

Thank you for the honest advice. Keep on flipping! I love your content.

Wow. You are both so dedicated and explain the reality so well. I'm a pensioner in South Africa and I love flipping furniture, just my own but you give me confidence to take it further.

Omg I looooooved the side by side of the first and most recent pieces!

Love your channel and appreciate all of the information you are kind enough to share! You have inspired me to try my hand at furniture flipping. I am retiring in October, and need a side gig.

You two have come a long way. You are a great team. Love your videos and flips.

Would LOVE to have ya'll do a "Monthly Check-In" to discuss things like current trends, FB Marketplace updates, New products and reviews and/or comparisons of current products! Whatever you want to talk about! I personally enjoy the fact that you don't align with a specific product company. So you can use any product you want! Would also like to see Nieman maybe being your "Prep Man" or something like that. Love you guys and watch you all the time. I'm flipping myself, but on a smaller scale. Sherrie

LOL Patience! That's my issue! I am just starting to do this as a side gig. We live in a smaller area, so I worry about it selling. But I am jumping in to test it out. I just finished a desk, a small table, and am top coating 2 dressers. I appreciate your sharing your knowledge and feedback!

Great content Lauren and Nieman. Your furniture flipping has become such a craft. Congratulations.

Hello. Thank you both for your videos lessons. You two are very very informative, great speakers and presenters, and just so talented folks! You two are my favorite go to’s for lessons and info.

Thanks to you both! I've enjoyed watching your journey and am considering giving furniture flipping a try - as a creative outlet and hobby to start. The idea of multiple income streams is exciting, but am working on my own (for now). I don't have a 'Neiman' to work with. Even so, you two are such a great team, terrific teachers and coaches for those of us looking for a new creative adventure. ♡

I think one of the things that propelled you to where you are, is the fact that you started with a mission of paying your student loan off and you did it!!!! You are so admired and loved, both of you!!

As a business I know you keep track of your expenses. How do you keep track of your furniture purchases from marketplace/craigslist etc, because I'm sure you aren't asking random people to write up a receipt for a $20 old dresser. Do you need receipts for the furniture you buy for taxes? Or do you just keep track?

Thank you! Love you guys so much! Yes he needs to paint a piece!!!!!!

Thanks for sharing this video with us. I found this interesting, informative and inspirational. Could you share how you set your goals for the business from the beginning of your journey?

Yes, definitely want to see Neiman paint!!

Great video. What tips/resources did you utilize to figure out your business requirements (i.e. do you need to charge sales tax, did you need to obtain a business license, are your acquisition costs tax deductible and how do you document your acquisition costs, do you make your customers sign off on an invoice to prove your revenue, etc)?

Great info, thanks for sharing. My question would be delivering the pieces, do you?, price, how far etc

Great video guys! I would LOVE to see Nieman paint a piece of furniture! Great idea for a video!

Thanks for advice ! 👍

I'm NOT looking to do furniture flipping full time, in fact I haven't flipped a piece in my life. Someday I hope to apply what I learned to pieces in my own home. I just wanted to comment and say that your content has improved so much even in the past 6 months. The information is great and the editing is spectacular. You guys make a GREAT team. Thank you for everything you do; definitely my favorite furniture flipping channel on youtube!

Neiman painting - yes please! So happy for you two!

Lauren I love this vid showing the business side! I've been watching for almost a year now. Hubbs works in IT as did I until a year ago. Was smarter for me to manage all of our rentals and flips so hubbs could step away and concentrate on his job since he's a partner of the firm. Since I am the CFO of our house and our property business, I already know it is imperative the keep detailed records of incoming/outgoing $$ for projects so at the end of the year, we can show net profit. I use Quick Books for our LLC. I was wondering do you keep a detailed profit/loss on your revenue streams quarterly or yearly? Was wondering your method. TIA!

Yes! Neiman should paint! That would be fun to watch.

Thank u for this video! I have a full time job but I wfh, and I want to start flipping as an additional income to pay my mortgage off early.

Yes, let him paint would love to see it. I have a piece that will be my first one, so I hope I do a good job. Don't have all the tool's but it's a start. And I was also given a few free pieces.

This is one of my favorite videos you’ve done.

I really enjoy your content and find your videos so informative and inspirational. When you do commission pieces, do you have the customer sign a contract to outline paint color, price, etc?

Sharing the business side of furniture flipping would be great. When you first moved into that jumbo-jet-hanger of a shop, I was wondering how the overhead impacted your cash flow. Flipping anything, furniture, antiques, thrift store finds, etc., takes some business savvy. So, anything you want to tell us would be appreciated.

Yes, Neiman should paint. Love your videos.

Can you share what books you have on the shelf behind you? Also, could you provide tips on shipping furniture that's not local?

How long has it been since you refinished your first piece of furniture? That would be helpful to know for someone thinking about doing this.

I have a garage full of furniture with the intent to flip it, I have been painting my own furniture, cabinets etc. for a few years now and really enjoy it so hoping to make an income out of making ugly pretty again. How do you get sponsored by Dixie Belle or any other company? I already use Dixie Belle products so that spoke to me when you mentioned them providing you with product in your 4 piece provincial flip. I am a retired special education teacher so when Neiman said something about starting flipping and doing it for 20 years I had to laugh because I will be too old in 20 years to be flipping furniture, but I can certainly do it now. Thank you for sharing your journey it is very inspiring!!

I’d love to see Neiman flip a piece of furniture. Have him look for the piece, go get it and then start to finish paint and sell it. I’m glad to see young people look at each other with love and respect. You both are sweet and seem like genuinely nice people. That’s very refreshing. God bless you both in your business and in your future together.

I'm doing my first kitchen for someone 1500.00 + supplies. And I repaired 2 chairs for him for another 200.00. A lot of work. As a side hustle.

My husband gets irritated with space and my craft space. I have patience but him not so much. Do you have any tips or have you been through this? I love everything you do and this great channel 💕 you are great teachers
