As a large mother from Los Angeles earned half a million

Three years ago, Evelyn Teman was at home in Los Angeles and was putting solitaire on a computer when she saw an advertisement for a site called Poshmark on the screen. The message offered to earn by selling their unnecessary clothes. For three years, Evelyn bought more than 10 thousands of lots, and she earned 500 thousands of dollars, сообщает Business Insider.

Founded in 2011, Poshmark is somewhere between Pinterest and eBay for women's clothing. It connects the sellers with the buyers, takes over the logistics and takes the 20% of the transaction.

Evelyn posted one item from her wardrobe and it sold. This, of course, motivated her to put up another lot, which was bought just as quickly. In less than three months, the woman had nothing left to sell. Evelyn Teman made enough money to start selling new clothes online. At the same time, she had enough time to deal with her main responsibilities - maternal ones. Evelyn often conducted business on her mobile phone, for example while standing in line at the supermarket. As a result, Teman became one of the most successful sellers on the site. She made a successful business without investing practically any money in it.

Evelyn had a head start - her family is working in the field of clothing in Paris. At the age of 16, the girl opened her shop, where she worked for about 12 years. But after the birth of her second son, Teman dropped the case, because she did not have time to deal with both the store and the children. She now has four sons between the ages of two and 22 and an adult stepson.

Evelyn has a lot of experience in the business of selling clothes, and she is confident that anyone can learn how to sell online well. For this you need:

1. It is a lot of work to build a network of followers not only on the site, but also live.

Evelyn did her best to meet customers. For example, she offered subscribers a chance to meet in Los Angeles. She said that in this way she met her best friends.

2. Share other merchandise with your subscribers

Most likely, they will answer you the same. It helps to attract the attention of new customers and expand their network.

3. Use good photos and descriptions

People want to see clothes on a real person, and not on a hanger. Evelyn, if necessary, photographs herself in clothes that she sells.

4. Start with a small but not tiny cabinet

About 25-30 items are enough to show the diversity of your store.

5. Participate in any events that the site arranges for its users.

Teman participated in all the events of Poshmark, and the site began to allocate it, which attracted additional subscribers.
