43 minutes

In Episode #48 of Busybee Refinishing with MelDidItHerself, I’m bringing you the first session of the BusyBees in Business Strategy Session series! Today I’m sitting down with Laura, recent graduate from the Lurker to the Hobbyist in the Furniture Refinishers Success Spectrum, to discuss her refinished furniture listings. We discuss ways to improve her photos, additions she can make to her product descriptions, tips for getting more eyes on your listings, ways to optimize the listing so it ends up in potential customers’ searches and how to choose which items to take home to makeover. We also spend some time talking mindset and increasing our confidence in our abilities and the product we put out!

If you have ever wondered:

What is the best way to sell refurbished furniture?

Why won’t my furniture makeovers sell quickly?

How do I optimize my Facebook Marketplace listings to get my furniture flips to sell fast?

What should I include in the product descriptions of my refinished furniture for sale?
