🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Do followers equal buyers?

Short answer: no. People follow for many different reasons. Some were told to follow by someone else, some just happened to come across your profile, some follow to get followers back. That doesn’t automatically translate into sales.

BUT, your follower count still has value. As your audience grows, you increase the chances that some of those followers will eventually become buyers over time. A larger base creates more opportunity.

The key is balance. Growing followers is helpful, but your real focus should be on trust, consistency, clear listings, and strong shows.

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ How are you doing so far this year?

We’re two weeks into the new year, and yes — we’re in a “slow.” But slow doesn’t mean stuck. There are always things you can do to increase viewers, buyers, and momentum.

Take a quick check-in:

• Does your profile need a refresh?

• Are your shows scheduled consistently?

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Can you help?

I rarely make announcements like this, but this is an emergency benefit show and our community support is truly needed.

Tonight, January 13 at 10:00 PM EST, RaizeFashion will be live for a special benefit show. I will be raiding directly into her right after my Seller Talk, which begins at 9:06 PM EST.

Join her https://www.whatnot.com/s/ZohxKmz5 tonight

She will be running a Buyer Appreciation Giveaway, and all tips will go toward her emergency. Even a $1.00 tip can help. If you’re not able to purchase or tip, you can still support by coming in, tapping the screen, sending hearts, and helping boost her algorithm so more people see the show.

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ If you could ask Whatnot staff ONE question, what would it be?

It could be about the app, a feature you wish existed, something confusing, or an improvement you’d love to see. Big or small — if it affects your experience as a seller, it matters.

Whatnot is hosting a Seller Support Show on January 14th, and I want to gather the most common questions and suggestions so we can try to get real answers during that chat.

To submit your questions, go to vizzuals.com and click the link that says “Take the Survey.” That’s where I’ll be collecting everything to present.

Your feedback could help shape future updates — and you never know which question might spark a change. 💛

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Did you know that using Flash Sales the wrong way can actually make each order a loss?

Flash Sales are a great tool — but if you’re discounting too aggressively (especially on low-cost items like stickers), you may be paying more in fees than you’re earning. Remember, every order still includes the $0.30 transaction fee plus other fees, even on small items.

For example: if you run stickers at 70% off, you’re likely already in the negative. That means you’re paying out of pocket just to make the sale. 😬

If you’re using Flash Sales or coupon codes to reach your 1,000 sales milestone, make sure you’re doing the math first. Visibility is great, but not if it costs you money on every order.

Small reminder: I host “Coffee with Candy” every morning at 10:06 AM EST — pop in, ask questions, and…

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Did you know that you can use polls to your advantage during a live show?

Polls aren’t just for fun — they’re a powerful engagement tool. You can use them to:

• Ask buyers for sizes or preferences

• Find out what types of items they want to see next

• Or simply keep people involved so they stay to see the results

❓ Did you know that your graphics can directly impact how much buyers trust you?

A clean, professional logo helps create confidence before a buyer ever clicks your show. Your branding sets the tone for how serious, organized, and reliable you appear.

Many sellers use personal photos or pet images because they want a “personal touch.” Unfortunately, people do judge what they see. Some buyers hesitate to purchase based on personal appearance, and others avoid buying from sellers with pets entirely. For trust and neutrality, a professional logo is often the best choice.

I use Canva (Premium) and ChatGPT (Premium) to create all of my graphics. If you’d rather not design your own, I also offer custom graphics for purchase in my profile.

Reminder: Join me every morning at 10:06 AM EST for “Coffee with Candy.” Pop in, ask anything, and get support live

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Did you know that you cannot use a Flat Rate label on a non–Flat Rate box? 📦⚠️

This is being shared incorrectly by at least one person on Whatnot, but it is false information. A Flat Rate label must be used on an actual USPS Flat Rate box or envelope. You cannot use your own box, use another USPS "Large Shipping Box", cover a box, or substitute different packaging with a Flat Rate label.

If you do this, USPS can adjust the postage and you will be charged after the fact. I see sellers panic because their accounts went negative after following this bad advice. Those “dinged” charges add up fast.

If you ever have questions about shipping labels or something someone is claiming on Whatnot doesn’t sound right, ask before you ship. I’m always happy to help clarify.

And if you see…

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Did you know that you can restart your show for up to two hours after ending it on Whatnot?

If you accidentally end your show or need to jump back on, you may be able to restart the same show within a two-hour window. However, this must be done on a laptop or desktop — you cannot restart a show from the Whatnot app.

Some sellers say they’ve been able to do it through a mobile browser on iPhone or tablet, but I haven’t personally tested that yet. If you’ve done it successfully, reply and let me know.

Here’s how to restart:

Go to Seller Hub → Shows → Past Shows, find the show you just ended, and select the option to restart it.

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Did you know there is a very specific way to request Booster Raids?

Here’s the correct way 👇

• You MUST be live

• Posting your show to a message won't help, it's actually harmful.

• The host must request the raid (not a mod or friend)

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Did you know that raiding into another seller after your show ends can actually help YOU? 🔁📈

Raiding isn’t just about being nice — it’s a smart networking move. When you raid into a seller who needs a boost, that support is often remembered. Sometimes it leads to raids back, future support, or shoutouts while you’re live.

The viewers in the show you raid may also follow you, bookmark your profile, or connect with you for future collaborations. If they’re sellers too, they might raid into you later because they know you support others.

All of this helps expand your network, increase visibility, and introduce you to new potential buyers you may never reach on your own.

Ending your show with a raid keeps momentum going — not just for them, but for you too. 💛

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Did you know that packing items correctly can prevent damage, returns, and even legal issues? 📦

Boxes should NEVER have extra empty space. If you shake the box and it rattles (unless the item is meant to), that’s a problem. You shouldn’t feel items shifting inside. Everything should be snug, padded, and secure.

Always use proper cushioning like bubble wrap, packing paper, or foam so items don’t move during transit. Damage usually happens because of empty space, not because a box was too small.

IMPORTANT: Never use USPS FREE packaging (flat rate boxes, padded envelopes, etc.) as padding or filler inside other boxes. This is not only incorrect packing — it’s illegal. USPS supplies are federal property and are only meant to be used for their intended shipping service. Misuse can result in postage due, penalties, or worse. 🚫

Good packing protects your…

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Did you know that building a strong “brand” on Whatnot starts with your NAME?

Staying consistent with your username across all platforms matters — Whatnot, social media, and any other platforms. Your logo, thumbnails, and profile banner… but your name is the foundation.

If you plan to build your business, your name should be:

• Unique

• Easy to read when typed together

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Did you know I’m hosting a Seller Talk TONIGHT at 8:06 PM EST focused on the “post holiday slump”? 📉➡️📈

After the holidays, many sellers see a slowdown — but losing momentum is NOT inevitable. In tonight’s Seller Talk, we’ll go over practical ways to keep your shows visible, stay consistent, and adjust without starting over.

This talk is all about what you can do right now to keep things moving instead of waiting for sales to magically pick back up.

👉 Bookmark the show here https://www.whatnot.com/s/5XV1tHf6 so you don’t miss it

❓Do you have specific questions about the "After Holiday Slump"? Post them below.

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Did you know that ONE account setting could be hiding you from almost everyone on Whatnot? 👀⚠️

Whatnot has an “activity status” setting that controls who can see when you’re online, what shows you’re in — and even when you go LIVE. If this is turned off, other users won’t know you’re online, and some people may not even see that you’re live at all.

This can be a huge mistake. Sellers you support (and who support you) may be looking for you and never see your show pop up. Less visibility = fewer eyes.

Take a minute to check your settings 👇

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Do you have what it takes to give yourself a little “self tough love” going into 2026?

If you’re not happy with your sales, results, or growth, this is the moment to be honest with yourself — not harsh, but accountable. Change doesn’t happen overnight, but small, consistent adjustments can slowly steer you in the right direction.

For those who believe in New Year’s resolutions, now is the right time to start. Waiting until January doesn’t magically fix anything — action does. 📈

This Sunday, I’m hosting a Seller Talk called “The After Holiday Slump.” We’ll talk about what you can do RIGHT NOW to reset, refocus, and start 2026 strong.

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Did you know that everything you put in your Whatnot profile is searchable and should be used as a marketing tool? 🔍📱

Your profile bio should focus on what you sell, not necessarily who you are. Buyers often search for items like “Gucci wallet,” “vintage tees,” or “carnival glass” — not personal details like “mother of 7 boys”

This may be hard to hear, but it’s real: in a recent survey on Vizzuals.com, many buyers said they avoid profiles that focus on health issues or personal struggles. Some worry orders won’t be fulfilled, others don’t want emotional pressure or future expectations. 😕

Your profile is your storefront. Try to cater to the masses if you want more sales unless you are running a charity event or supporting a specific cause.

👑 Pro Tip: My seller support shows are back!… Every Sunday and Tuesday.…

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Did you know that scammers exist on EVERY platform — including Whatnot —? 🚨📱

People often ask, “Why isn’t Whatnot doing anything?” but investigations and account actions usually happen quietly. As soon as one scam is stopped, another attempt pops up.

How to protect yourself 👇

1️⃣ Never chat or move conversations outside the app. Messages inside Whatnot can be monitored.

2️⃣ Don’t try to “handle it yourself.” This includes ANY monetary transactions. If something feels off, contact Whatnot immediately.

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Do you know the deadline for shipping by Christmas this year? 🎄📦

If you’re shipping Ground, the deadline is December 17.

If you’re shipping Priority, the deadline is December 18.

Yes, some packages might still arrive on time after these dates — but this is not the time to gamble. If you want happy buyers and fewer headaches, plan around these deadlines. ⏰😬

Now is the final push to plan your Christmas shows, highlight giftable items, and set clear shipping expectations. 🎁✨

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Did you know that using phrases like “no cancellations,” “no refunds,” or “bid responsibly” can actually scare buyers away? 😬🛑

You don’t need to include these in your show notes or listings. As a seller, you already have full control — you can approve or deny any cancellation request that comes in. Writing harsh rules only makes buyers nervous and can reduce sales.

Most cancellations are rare and harmless, and you’re never required to accept one if you don’t want to. So there’s no need to warn buyers with strict wording.

👑 Pro Tip: Great customer service is the best strategy. Sometimes allowing a cancellation (after hearing the situation) can win you a loyal customer for life. A little kindness goes a long way. 💛

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Did you know that offering or even mentioning “free extras” to buyers is against Whatnot policy and can lead to permanent suspension? ⚠️📦

Sellers are NOT allowed to say things like “buy this and I’ll throw something extra in your package.” Any extra item tied to a purchase is treated the same as a purchase-based giveaway — and those are not allowed. 🚫

This applies even if you think you’re being generous. A “free item” included only because someone purchased is still considered requiring a purchase.

The ONLY approved way to give items away is through Whatnot’s official giveaway system and rules.

Violations can result in account action, loss of selling privileges, or permanent bans. This is serious — protect your account.

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Do you know the power of Buyer Appreciation Giveaways (“B.A.G.”)? 🎁

Most people know I’m not a fan of regular giveaways — but I AM a fan of Buyer Appreciation Giveaways. These are designed to reward buyers, not freebie hunters.

Yes, non-buyers are legally allowed to enter by filling out a form — that’s a “let it go” moment. If a non-buyer wins, you MUST ship the exact item listed. No substitutions. This is federal law, not a Whatnot rule. ✅

👑PRO TIP:

You can list MORE THAN ONE B.A.G. in a single show.

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓Did you know that misusing USPS FREE shipping supplies can lead to fines, postage due, or even federal charges? 🚨

📦 Free USPS supplies are provided ONLY for shipping Priority Mail. Using them as filler inside other boxes, covering flat-rate boxes with poly mailers, turning them inside out, storing items in them, or using them as shelving is NOT allowed.

👮Under 18 U.S.C. § 1707, it is a federal offense to “purloin or embezzle any property used by the Postal Service, or appropriate such property to any use other than its proper use.”

⚖️ Many cases never go to court because they’re settled quietly. - Recently, a Whatnot seller was ordered to pay over $100,000 in an out-of-court settlement and was permanently banned from Whatnot for covering flat-rate boxes with polymailers and using USPS envelopes as padding - there are over 82 cases pending…

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Did you know that the method for requesting Booster Raids has changed? 🚀💛

Booster Raids are a free Vizzuals service where a fast 30–90 second show is created solely to raid into a seller who needs a boost. These raids introduce you to buyers you’d normally never reach — and there is never a charge.

Premium Members now have two ways to request a raid:

1️⃣ Text (SMS) your show link when you go live — this puts you at the TOP of the list instantly.

2️⃣ Tag in your show: @vizzuals Raid Please

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Do you know the USPS Christmas shipping deadlines this year? 🎄📦

For holiday delivery, the Ground Advantage deadline is December 17, and the Priority Mail deadline is December 19.

If you plan to host live shows and ship the same day, these should be your final show dates to ensure buyers receive their packages before Christmas. ⏰✨

Remember: delays increase as the holiday gets closer, so earlier is always safer!

👑 Pro Tip: Most Post Offices have two truck pickups each day. Catching the morning pickup can move your packages through the system faster. Just ask a clerk what time the first truck arrives — then aim to drop off packages at least 30 minutes before that time. 💛

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Did you know that having 11 or more scheduled shows can make you more visible on Whatnot? 👀✨

Whatnot tends to prioritize sellers who show consistency and commitment — and one way the system reads that is through how many upcoming shows you have scheduled. Sellers who plan ahead often get more visibility because Whatnot sees them as active, reliable, and invested. 📈🔥

So even if you don’t plan to stream every day, having multiple shows scheduled helps the algorithm take you more seriously — and can lead to more bookmarks and more buyers.

👑 Pro Tip: When creating a show, before adding your thumbnail, use the “Repeat Show” dropdown. Set it to repeat daily and it will create up to 10 shows at once. You can always go back later and edit the date and time — but the settings, structure, and…

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Do you tip your mail carrier or local post office clerks? 📬🎄

With the holidays here, many sellers show appreciation — but there are rules. Mail carriers have a $50 value limit per year according to the newest USPS policy. USPS employees are not supposed to accept cash.

😜Personally, I am a USPS Supervisor and I still give my carrier $100+

For Post Office clerks, carriers, helpful management, giving food, treats, or gift baskets is usually the best option, since they cannot legally accept cash gifts. 🍪☕

🚨IMPORTANT: If you give a card or gift, make sure it has their name on it — not just “Mailman” or “Carrier.” Otherwise, any USPS employee (including a utility carrier covering the route) can legally take it.

🌟 🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Did you know that your show title can DOUBLE your traffic when done right? 👀🔥

Your title is one of the first things buyers see — and it matters. A keyword-rich title helps buyers find you when searching for something specific, like “Vintage Tees,” “Squishmallows,” or “Mystery LEGO Pulls.” 🧩🛍

But keywords aren’t the only strategy… sometimes a compelling, funny, bold, or even slightly chaotic title grabs attention and increases click-throughs when your notification pops up. 😂💥

The BEST method? Combine both.

Example:

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Did you know that Thanksgiving Day sales can sometimes be MORE profitable than Black Friday? 🦃💰

While everyone gears up for Black Friday chaos, many larger sellers take Thanksgiving off — which means less competition and more visibility for YOUR show. Traffic is calmer, buyers browse longer, and impulse purchases tend to increase because people are relaxed, full, and scrolling. 📱✨

So if you normally skip the holiday — consider running a show. Even a short pop-up could pull extra buyers who won’t see as many options on the homepage.

👑 Pro Tip: If you go live, schedule early and use eye-catching titles. Add “Thankful Thursday Deals” or cute emoji combos to stand out. Buyers WILL click when curiosity kicks in. 💛

💡For your Black Friday show, you should definitely use your Show notes if you have a coupon code. You can say something like this:

🖤========================🖤

Black Friday Coupon Code: XXXXXX

Save: XXX

You can only claim a coupon from the Whatnot mobile app.

If you are using a coupon, you MUST add it to your wallet before making a purchase in order for it to be applied.

🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Is this your first Black Friday on Whatnot? 👀🛍

Black Friday is one of the busiest days of the year on the app — which means tons of buyers, tons of sellers, and LOTS of competition. Expect higher traffic, faster-paced shows, and possibly a few glitches because so many people are live at once. 📈⚠️

To make the most of it:

✨ Schedule multiple shows throughout the day

✨ Try pop-ups during non-peak hours when competition drops

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Did you know you can run multiple Flash Sales at once in your BIN? ⚡🛍 Flash Sales let you discount items for a specific amount of time — from 10 seconds up to 2 hours. That means you can keep certain items on sale for almost your entire show to drive urgency and extra sales. 📈🔥

You can choose either a $ amount off or a % amount off, depending on your strategy.

👑 Pro Tip: Be very careful with high percentages. Example: If you run 90% off a $1 sticker to push toward 1,000 sales, the buyer only pays $0.10 — but you still pay Whatnot + processing fees. That can leave you with a negative balance on that item. 💸

⏰🚨 Final reminder: TOMORROW is the last day to submit your Black Friday coupon for FREE promotion. Deadline: 12 PM EST.

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Did you know that raiding other sellers at the end of your show gives you extra exposure? 🚀🔥

End by tapping “RAID” instead of just closing your live. The seller may promote you. Buyers and sellers will often follow back, bookmark your future shows, and remember you — especially if you raid & support new sellers. 🤝

Raids help build community, boosts visibility, and keeps your momentum going even after you end your live. Small action — big payoff. 📈✨

🚨 IMPORTANT: 1/2 of all coupons submitted for Black Friday were invalid either because they were not created on Whatnot first or because they didn’t schedule a show on 11/28.

Follow these instructions below. Only 3 days left.

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Did you know that Whatnot added a new feature that makes sharing coupons even easier during your live shows? 🎉🔥

Buyers can still redeem coupons in their Wallet and the discount will auto-apply to their first qualifying purchase… BUT now sellers can create a claim button right in the chat!

All you have to do is type:

👉 /coupon YOURCODE

Example: /coupon VIZZ50

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Did you know that pinning an item during your live show sends a notification to anyone who bookmarked it, letting them know it’s about to run? 🔔👀

Pinning isn’t just for organization — it’s a built-in strategy to bring buyers back at the perfect moment. More eyes = more bids, more sales, and more momentum. 📈🔥

👑 Pro Tip: Keep the pinned item visible for a few seconds before running it so notified buyers have time to join.

⏰🚨 Reminder: You only have until TUESDAY to submit your Black Friday coupon for FREE promotion to over 160K Whatnot members.

Step 1: Create your coupon here:

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Did you know that when running a giveaway, you must CLEARLY state exactly what the prize is? You cannot label it a “random giveaway” and decide later. It must be specific, like “$10 gift card” or “Loungefly Bag.” 🎁✨

🗣️My opinion, I dislike giveaways. PLEASE… If I give you a booster raid, don’t feel pressured to do a giveaway. Just run an item $1.00 lower, or just say “Thank You Vizzuals”. Save money, attract the right buyers. Of course this wouldn’t apply to larger sellers… 💸👀

Instead, I recommend using Buyer Appreciation giveaways. These reward real supporters, and compels people to purchase. 🛍💛 non-buyers CAN when these giveaways so remember, once it starts, you cannot change the item or send something different— if the winner didn’t purchase. 🚫📦

⏰ Reminder: Only 6 days left to submit your Black Friday coupon for FREE promotion!

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Did you know… you can promote your Black Friday show to over 160,000 Whatnot users… for FREE? 👀🔥

For “Question of the Day” on Thanksgiving AND a special newsletter going out Wednesday, November 26, we’re featuring seller Coupon Codes to help you get more visibility, more bookmarks, and more buyers before Black Friday Sales. 🛍⚡

It’s open to EVERY seller and costs nothing to participate.

Go to:

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Did you know that most sellers schedule their shows right ON the hour or half hour — which means Whatnot sends out a flood of notifications at the same time. 🔔📱

⏰ If you schedule at an odd time like 7:17 PM, 8:08 PM, or 6:43 AM, your notification is less likely to compete with others, making it more visible to your followers. 👀✨

This small tweak can help increase show attendance, bookmarks, and sales — just because your alert stands out.

🎩 Other Tips:

• Keep a consistent schedule so viewers form a habit.

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Did you know that there are several ways to utilize flash sales? ⏳🔥

You can run Flash Sales for single items or multiples, and the timer can be very fast or as long as 2 hours. You can even run several during a show — they can run for the length of your whole show, including while auctions are happening — to help boost momentum, increase conversions, and keep buyers engaged. ⚡

Flash Sales create urgency, encourage faster decisions, and give buyers a reason to stay active in your show.

✨ Pro Tip: Use Flash Sales as an entry method for a Buyer Appreciation Giveaway. If you have multiples, discount them so buyers can purchase to enter. No multiples? Use stickers and drop them to $0.60 — fast, fun, and effective! 💛

❓ Did you know that you can now be notified immediately when new raid trains are added?

Currently, there are 62 raid trains listed on the vizzuals.com website. New raid trains are added as hosts submit them.

Many sellers have mentioned that they don’t find many open spots on these trains. So I created away to give you an automatic notification when new raid trains are entered, giving you a better shot at grabbing a spot.

Go to vizzuals.com and look for the “raid trains“ page and you will see a form at the top. Enter your email and Whatnot username to be notified.

Hosts: Remember that you can enter your raid trains, 100% free.

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Did you know that “Captions” is now available for all users, including Android?

“Captions” (or “captioning”) 🗣️lets viewers watch shows with their phone’s sound off while still reading everything the host is saying right on the screen.

As a seller, you 🚫cannot🚫control whether captions are on or off for buyers — the feature is available automatically on every show. Buyers can turn captions on by tapping the three dots on the show screen.

🤫This is a great tool for people who want to keep their volume low, and it’s very accurate. Just remember: if you whisper during your show, captions will still pick it up and display exactly what you said!🤭 Try it!

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Did you know that there is a HUGE showcase happening for Black Friday?

@TheRedRooster is putting together something special for 🖤Black Friday🖤 — it’s called Shop Small Friday on Whatnot.

💡The idea is simple: instead of battling the crowds and big box chaos, we celebrate and support the amazing small businesses that make Whatnot so special.

⏰You can go live anytime during the 24-hour event on November 28th, end whenever you want, and if another Shop Small seller is still live, you can raid into them to keep the good vibes rolling!

In past years, Whatnot made it a no commission day, so we hope it happens this year 🤞

🌟🌟 QUESTION OF THE DAY 🌟🌟

❓ Did you know that Whatnot has added new sub categories?

New Sub Categories to Grow Your Community

Whatnot has added new categories to help you reach more focused buyer communities and list your inventory more accurately.

* 👗Women’s Fashion: Plus Size, Dresses, Boutiques

* 🍿Food & Drink: Baked Goods, Snacks & Candy, Other Food & Drink

🌟🌟QUESTION OF THE DAY🌟🌟

❓Are shipping profiles REALLY needed?

Have you ever started shipping your items and realized that Whatnot bundled 20+ items in one box causing you to create separate bundles and pay for additional shipping?

Whatnot has a few built-in shipping profiles for your items, but they are basic and do not take into account the actual size of your items. This could mean disaster during shipping.

This information is different from the shipping that you choose when creating a show. And sometimes sellers confused the show shipping settings with the shipping profile settings.

When you create a shipping profile, YOU are telling Whatnot, how much your item weighs, and how many you can fit in a box. Unless YOU tell Whatnot this information, it will be determined for you.

🌟🌟QUESTION OF THE DAY🌟🌟

❓ Do you know the most common shipping mistakes?

🚫Splitting up a bundle that is too large and then printing the same label for both boxes and shipping them both with the same tracking number. Not only is this wrong, but it can cause you to be investigated by Postal Inspectors, fined and even jailed.

🚫Using a Ground label on a Priority box.

🚫 Not using the correct packaging with a flat rate label.

🚫 Not changing your packaging dimensions when your package is over 12 x 12 x 12

Hi!

My name is Joci dba raizefashion and I'm in the Atlanta area.

I'm new to selling on WN. I've been a reseller of clothing & shoes for over 20 years but only went full-time during the pandemic. I love it!

I've been selling on the app for 4 weeks now and have seen my business grow. I've met lots of great sellers and buyers.

My pain points are getting and keeping people in my show and sourcing enough to sell on shows.

I would love to join a regularly occuring raid train for clothing sellers.

🌸 Welcome New Members! 🌸

Welcome to the Georgia Sellers Group!

We’re so happy you’re here! 💕

You’re invited to make an introductory post so we can get to know you and what you sell — or simply reply here to say hi!

Be sure to include your WhatNot name and any upcoming shows so we can all follow, bookmark 🔖 & support each other!

Let’s learn together, support one another, and grow this amazing community.

🌟🌟QUESTION OF THE DAY🌟🌟

❓ How many moderators do you use for each show?

Moderators can be a huge asset to Show. You are missing out if you are not using them for your shows. Not only are they helpful, but they are also buyers.

🟢 Grow a network of moderators that can help you during your shows

🟢 Offer to be a moderator for others if they are a moderator for you

🟢 Find moderators here in this group or on the vizzuals.com group. Ask past buyers to be a moderator for you.

🌟🌟QUESTION OF THE DAY🌟🌟

❓ How do you feel about your Whatnot journey so far?

It only takes one single change to turn around your whole business. And even if you’re happy, you can still improve.

Here are some tips to steer you in the right direction…

🌟 Spruce up your profile. Talk about what you sell and not who you are.

🌟 Have at least 20 items listed in your BIN

🌟🌟QUESTION OF THE DAY🌟🌟

❓Did you know that you can watch past Whatnot Seller Talks?

🌟🌟QUESTION OF THE DAY🌟🌟

❓Have you ever tried the “5 Method”?

Let me explain for those of you that don’t use this method.

Following these simple steps every day for one week can be very helpful to increase sales. And the number “5” can be changed depending on the level of seller that you are. Some people may choose “20“ for example
