Reality Check: Why Reselling is Harder Than You Think


Listen Later

Think reselling is easy money? Think again! In this eye-opening episode, hosts Leah and Kayla pull back the curtain on the reselling industry to give you the reality check you need before diving in.

 

After years of building their business from a dining room table operation to a 12,000 square foot warehouse, they're sharing the honest truth about why reselling is much harder than those viral "I made $100K in 6 months" stories suggest.

In this episode, you'll discover:

 

  • The hidden costs that eat into your profits (storage space, shipping materials, platform fees)
  • Why your time is the most undervalued expense in reselling
  • The real startup costs beyond just buying inventory
  • How platform fees can drastically impact your margins
  • The importance of inventory management and organization from day one
  • Why partnering with someone can be a game-changer for your business
  • Market research and competition analysis essentials
  •  
  • This isn't meant to scare you away from reselling – Leah and Kayla absolutely love what they do! Instead, they want to arm you with realistic expectations and the tools you need for actual success. Whether you're just starting out or considering reselling as a side hustle, this episode will help you make informed decisions and avoid common pitfalls.
