🌞Good morning🌞 The dreaded "make an offer" is when a seller tries to use you for your expertise to fish for the best offer possible (in most cases). I'm not a fan! This video covers three ways to handle a seller who is not establishing his/her sale price. Use the "Ballpark" technique first!! You may save yourself an hour behind the wheel of a car if the seller is not in your ballpark. Use it early in the conversation if you can, before you even see the entire collection. Try to have some sense of baseline expectation from the seller before sinking anymore mental energy or time into the equation. You don't want to lose an hour of your workday to learn there is no way you will reach a deal. I know we have talked about the 'offer in the pocket' game before, but it's so awesome and worth bringing up every so often. Go get some kickass deals and don't forget, it is a BUYER'S MARKET right now. Even with the holidays bearing down on us. Prices are soft and people are liquidating collections. Suck them up with lean wholesale offers. Be kind, but be a shark, you work hard for this! Got a good deal? Then pay it forward to your customers, not your vendors. 🫴🏻 📈📈 See you tonight @ 8est!

Hi friends! I can’t for the life of me figure this out. It is unsigned. It seems special? I’m not sure? Thoughts? It’s a bracelet and necklace.

Hi all, wondering if there’s interest in putting together another raid train? Figured we are kicking off a new school year so why not? I’m not exactly sure how to set it up but I am willing to learn/help!

Hi Friends! I was told these are a book piece (what book I do not know?) - She mentioned Schreiner or Schiaparelli, i've done the reverse images searches but that's not coming up with anything. Any way of telling? TY so much! xo

I just heard this phrase for the first time and what a wonderful phrase it is! Deny analysis paralysis. That is to say, don't hyperventilate wondering what the absolute best option is because this delays any positive outcome and undermines your own gut in the process. This is complete workflow sabotage. And more importantly, certainly avoid it while hosting a live show. Those eight seconds you took deciding whether to run it or not caused five people to exit your show before you even made the decision. The additional six seconds you took deciding to run it for $20 rather than "$5 and go" took another three people out. Let's not talk about how long you waffled over who made it. On Whatnot with a room full of 40 people, it doesn't so much matter if Schreiner made it. It matters how pretty the item is and how many viewers decide that must have it which is predominantly based on how quick you were on your feet. (Oh, I'm guilty of manufacturer waffling!) In summary, make speedy gut decisions and you'll accomplish so much more while building exemplary self confidence as well as the confidence of your customer. To beak it down one step further, do you admire a person who obsesses before making a move or are you drawn to someone who makes a decision and owns it? Even if they fail, you hold them in high esteem for busting a move and running with the ball. (Ew, a sports analogy. What is this, a zoom call?!) XO, Fondly not written with AI, threefortytwo
