SEO for marketplace listings
What you'll actually do
- 01Spend 3 hours at Goodwill pretending you're just browsing while secretly scanning every barcode
- 02List 20 items on eBay, Poshmark, and Mercari with photos that make a $3 find look like a $50 treasure
- 03Ship 47 packages before the post office closes and the line wraps around the building
- 04Argue with a buyer who wants a refund because the item 'looked different in the photos' — it didn't
- 05Check sold comps obsessively to make sure you priced that vintage jacket right
- 06Organize your 'inventory room' which is really just your entire living space with labels on everything
- 07Refresh your seller dashboard 40 times a day to see if that $200 listing finally sold
