Ready to Resell

Welcome back to Ready to Resell! In this unofficial Part 2 of our New Year’s resolutions, Leah and Kayla are tackling a topic that’s not exactly sexy—but absolutely necessary: money, finances, and taxes. Let’s be real—if you’re reselling without the intention of making money, you might just be a hoarder with an internet connection 👀. Whether reselling is your side hustle or your full-time gig, this episode is your wake-up call to start treating your business like a business. We’re breaking down: Why separating personal and business finances is non-negotiable The panic that comes from waiting until April 14th to “figure it out” Spreadsheets vs. paid financial systems (and when it’s time to upgrade) Why receipts matter more than you think (yes, even gas and lunch receipts) How to prepare for quarterly taxes before they wreck your peace Setting realistic revenue goals that include taxes, emergencies, and real life Saving small amounts consistently (and why it actually works) Planning for the “what ifs” — platform changes, slow sales, and surprise expenses This episode is packed with real talk, personal mistakes, mom-life perspective, and practical steps you can start today, even if you’re still small. Because the truth is: it’s way easier to act big when you’re small than to clean up a mess later. So grab a folder, stop crumbling your receipts, resist the Coach bag just a little longer, and let’s get you organized for a smarter, less stressful 2026.   Happy Reselling! ☺️   Become a Reselling Pro with Binin, the reseller Inventory app - 30 day FREE trial  - www.Bininapp.com   Reseller Hub and Buy Bulk Inventory - www.readytoresell.com ~ Use code PODCAST to get $15 your first order and $5 Shipping!   Check out our new Ebay Live Shows - https://www.ebay.com/ebaylive/sellers/IuD96QdtReO   New to Poshmark?

Hey reseller friends!  Leah and Kayla are here to talk about a Poshmark feature that's actually working and making our lives easier: Smart Sell! Remember those days of lying in bed for 45 minutes scrolling through likes and manually sending offers at all hours? Yeah, we don't miss those either. In this episode, we're breaking down Poshmark's AI-powered Smart Sell feature that's basically like having a 24/7 sales assistant working for you while you sleep, spend time with family, or (gasp!) actually take a break from your phone. We're sharing our real-world experience after updating our entire closet to Smart Sell—the good, the quirky, and everything in between. From setup tips to bundle confusion, from the uptick in sales we've noticed to how it affects that personal touch with repeat customers, we're covering it all. Whether you've got thousands of listings like us or you're a part-time reseller who can't be glued to Poshmark 24/7, this episode has actionable insights for you. We'll walk you through exactly how to turn it on (hint: you'll need the app, not desktop), what minimum prices to set, and some work-arounds for the few hiccups we've encountered. If you've been feeling frustrated with Poshmark lately or you're just looking for ways to work smarter (not harder) in your reselling business, this episode is exactly what you need. It's time to let AI do some of the heavy lifting so you can focus on sourcing, listing, and actually enjoying your reselling journey. Perfect for: All Poshmark sellers—whether you're just starting out, running a part-time side hustle, or managing a full-time reselling business with thousands of listings.

Leah and Kayla are getting real about 2025—the good, the bad, and the seriously ugly parts of running a reselling business this year. Spoiler alert: it was a wild ride. From watching their sales tank in spring to scrambling to figure out what the heck was going on, the hosts don't hold back about the challenges they faced. Inflation hit hard, shipping costs sky-rocketed, and everyone was feeling the pinch at the grocery store AND in their reselling businesses. But here's the thing—they didn't just give up. Instead, they pivoted. Hard. They jumped into eBay Live auctions when the opportunity came knocking, started selling pre-loved items for the first time ever, and basically rebuilt their entire business model on the fly. And honestly? Some of their "oh crap" moments turned into their biggest wins. If you've been struggling this year, wondering if you should keep going or try something different, or just feeling like you're the only one having a rough time—this episode is for you. Because spoiler #2: change doesn't mean you failed. It means you're smart enough to adapt. Plus, they spill the tea on why thrift stores are basically retail now, how pre-loved items are sometimes selling for MORE than new stuff, and what they're planning for 2026.   Happy Reselling! ☺️   Become a Reselling Pro with Binin, the reseller Inventory app - 30 day FREE trial  - www.Bininapp.com   Reseller Hub and Buy Bulk Inventory - www.readytoresell.com ~ Use code PODCAST to get $15 your first order and $5 Shipping!   Check out our new Ebay Live Shows - https://www.ebay.com/ebaylive/sellers/IuD96QdtReO   New to Poshmark?

Ever wondered if Whatnot is the right platform for your reselling business? In this brutally honest episode, Leah and Kayla pull back the curtain on their three-attempt journey with Whatnot live auctions, spanning several years in the kids' clothing niche. From being early pioneers in Whatnot's fashion category (when it was just collectibles and Funko Pops) to being actively recruited back to the platform, the hosts share everything they've learned about live auction selling. They break down the major differences between Whatnot, Poshmark, and eBay's live auction features, with special focus on the shipping complexities that nearly broke their business model. In this episode, you'll discover: Why Whatnot's "smart bundling" system doesn't actually work across custom shipping profiles The shocking truth about who keeps overcharged shipping fees (spoiler: it's not the sellers) Real numbers on commission structures and hidden transaction fees Practical workarounds for selling varied-weight items like kids' clothing Why seller refund capabilities matter more than you think Their strategy moving forward: bundle selling and category-specific shows Whether you're considering adding Whatnot to your reselling platforms or struggling with shipping issues on your current shows, this episode offers valuable insights into making platform decisions that actually support your bottom line. Perfect for both new resellers exploring options and established sellers considering expansion. Bottom line: Whatnot isn't getting a goodbye forever, but it's definitely on the back burner until some serious shipping infrastructure improvements happen.   Happy Reselling! ☺️   Become a Reselling Pro with Binin, the reseller Inventory app - 30 day FREE trial  - www.Bininapp.com   Reseller Hub and Buy Bulk Inventory - www.readytoresell.com ~ Use code PODCAST to get $15 your first order and $5 Shipping!   Check out our new Ebay Live Shows - https://www.ebay.com/ebaylive/sellers/IuD96QdtReO   New to Poshmark?

In this episode of Ready to Resell, Leah and Kayla tackle the "unsexy" but essential topic of taxes for online resellers. They break down two major tax changes that could significantly impact your reselling business: Part 1: The new Texas law (effective October 1, 2025) that charges sales tax on marketplace commissions. Learn how this affects sellers on platforms like Poshmark, eBay, Etsy, and Amazon—and why other states may soon follow. Part 2: The IRS is dropping the 1099-K reporting threshold to just $600 in gross payments for 2026 (down from $20,000 in previous years). Discover what this means for side hustlers, hobby sellers, and full-time resellers alike. Leah and Kayla explain real-world examples, discuss how to track expenses, and offer practical advice on preparing for these changes. Whether you're selling luxury items or clearing out your kids' closets, this episode helps you understand what forms you'll receive and how to protect yourself. Important: Leah and Kayla are not tax professionals—they're small business owners sharing what's affecting them. Always consult a qualified tax advisor for specific guidance. Perfect for resellers at any level who want to stay informed and avoid being blindsided by tax changes.   Happy Reselling! ☺️ Become a Reselling Pro with Binin, the reseller Inventory app - 30 day FREE trial  - www.Bininapp.com   Reseller Hub and Buy Bulk Inventory - www.readytoresell.com ~ Use code PODCAST to get $15 your first order and $5 Shipping!

In this episode, hosts Leah and Kayla explain why reselling is perfect for anyone needing flexible income - whether you're staying home with kids, dealing with job changes, or want a fun side hustle. The secret to getting started? Begin with what you already have at home and ask friends for items they were planning to donate.   Don't get overwhelmed by established resellers with warehouses and expensive equipment. You only need your smartphone and platforms like eBay, Facebook Marketplace, or Poshmark, which handle payments, taxes, and provide built-in audiences. Use Google Lens to identify items and connect with other resellers online for support and advice.   Success comes down to three things: good inventory people want to buy, excellent customer service, and competitive pricing. Start with categories you know, research before buying, and set realistic goals. Build your expertise gradually - don't jump into buying truckloads of inventory or going full-time immediately.   Happy Reselling! ☺️   Become a Reselling Pro with Binin, the reseller Inventory app - 30 day FREE trial  - www.Bininapp.com   Reseller Hub and Buy Bulk Inventory - www.readytoresell.com ~ Use code PODCAST to get $15 your first order and $5 Shipping!   Check out our new Ebay Live Shows - https://www.ebay.com/ebaylive/sellers/IuD96QdtReO   New to Poshmark?

Leah and Kayla continue their eBay Live beta testing series by sharing their comprehensive training experience and hilariously disastrous first show attempt.

The hosts recount their memorable first live show where overconfidence led to a complete technical failure, leaving viewers staring at a black screen while they panicked behind the scenes.   Android users will especially appreciate their discussion of technical challenges and the steep learning curve of OBS streaming software. This episode perfectly captures the reality of beta testing - the struggles, the learning process, and the importance of proper preparation.   Part of an ongoing series documenting their eBay Live beta testing journey.

Join Leah and Kayla as they spill ALL the things that can (and will) go wrong during your live selling shows!    From their hundreds of live selling sessions, the hosts have collected quite the arsenal of "oops" moments and recovery strategies. They'll walk you through everything from connectivity nightmares that leave you frozen on screen to those heart-stopping moments when a buyer accidentally bids $200 instead of $20. Plus, they're spilling their secrets on preparation tactics that can save your sanity, including backup devices, copy-paste responses, and the art of staying cool when technology isn't cooperating.   You'll learn practical approaches to handling payment failures without embarrassing your buyers, managing audio and video hiccups that can throw off your flow, and why disclosing item flaws upfront can save you from buyer drama later. The hosts emphasize that even after all their experience, stuff still happens – but having a game plan makes all the difference between a minor blip and a total show disaster.   This episode is perfect for resellers who want to feel confident stepping into the live auction world, or experienced sellers looking to tighten up their crisis management skills.
