Seller Spotlight Interview
❓ Do you have a Saying or Motto? Hold the Line ❓ Approximately when did you start selling on Whatnot?
Aug 01, 2023
❓ What do you primarily sell on Whatnot?
Women’s Contemporary
❓Do you run Raid Trans, Showcases, Battles, Meetups, Seller Chats? I host accountability challenges and raid trains that are all inclusive to all categories and all sellers (new, seasoned and in between) ❓ What types of services do you offer to other sellers.
I offer paid one on one consulting/coaching
❓ What is your "Why"? Why do you do what you do?
Selling on Whatnot has given me the freedom to earn on my own terms—anytime, day or night. That flexibility helps cover life’s costs and fuels my love for a little leisurely travel. But truthfully? It’s the community that keeps me coming back. Every live show is more than a sale—it’s a space to laugh, share, encourage, and connect. Shop Happi isn’t just a name, it’s a vibe and nothing brings me more joy than building a space where everyone feels seen, supported, and a little more Happi. ❓ What has been your proudest accomplishment as a seller?
My interview with Whatnot Sellers
❓ What has been your biggest mistake or learning moment?
One of the most hurtful lessons I’ve learned on this journey was realizing that not everyone you let in your circle has your heart in mind. Some of the people I trusted—who I laughed with, collaborated with, supported—turned around and hurt me in ways that almost made me walk away from this app completely. But I didn’t. Because the community—the real ones, the ones who show up with love and light—reminded me why I started.
❓ How do you try to support or encourage other sellers?
I use my platform to spotlight others and their businesses, share tips and resources in community chats, and hold space for growth—all completely free of charge. If you know me, you know this: If you reach out, I’ll do my best to support you. Whether it’s promoting your show, offering guidance, or just showing up, I lead with heart and intention. Because when one of us wins, we all win. 💛
❓ What’s one tip you would give to someone just starting out on Whatnot?
Don’t be in a rush, do the hard things and trust the process your tribe will find you.
❓ What is one feature you wish Whatnot would add, remove or update and why?
Add a Shopping Cart Feature Even with discounted shipping, many new buyers feel overwhelmed with multiple shipping charges appearing one item at a time. A visual cart showing combined items and total cost before checkout would give buyers clarity and encourage larger purchases with less hesitation. Rethink the Premiere Wings Program Highlighting sellers based solely on fast financial return can unintentionally diminish the value of consistent, quality-driven sellers. A true premiere seller should be recognized not just for numbers, but for integrity, presentation, and community engagement. 🔍 Improve Search & Navigation The ability to easily search messages, purchases, or seller profiles would greatly enhance user experience. As the platform grows, functionality should grow with it—helping buyers reconnect with previous purchases and sellers without hassle.
❓ Talk about a favorite or funny memory from one of your shows or a show you watched as a buyer/seller.
So many to reflect on huge reason why I miss the past shows feature but probably my funniest is me dressing up in an inflatable pumpkin suit for patch show :).
❓ What is your current short or long-term goal that you currently have?
Short term-Have more shows; Long term build a community of shoppers that will afford me the opportunity to do this full time.
❓ Where do you see Whatnot and/or yourself in 5 years?
Possibly an employee of Whatnot and a full time Reseller.
❓ If you could go back to Day-1 on Whatnot, what would you do different?
Nothing, my journey has been and still is AMAZING.
❓ Anything else you'd like the community to know about you?
Shop Happi isn’t build on numbers or trends but is built on connection. I’m thankful for every person who chooses love over drama and community over competition, they are the reason I’m still here!
