Y’all I want to share a HUGE win with y’all. I just finished my first TikTok Live and I’m happy to say I did $730 in sales in less than two hours. The craziest part? This was with an account that had 0 followers!!
And guess what I sold?
Even crazier… my leftover rugs. 😵💫 Yep, you heard that right! This was a clip from the live.
Safe to say… I’ll definitely be going live again. 🚀
Today I got a CocoDuck tattoo.
No, seriously. 😂🦆
Today, @ChipotleTweets was running a buy one, get one free deal for National Tattoo Day, and on Fridays I like to treat my packers to breakfast or lunch.
A few fake tattoos later, we secured some free burritos! 🌯
Hands down, one of the best burritos I’ve had. I don’t even know if it was because it was free, because Chipotle had their limited-time brisket, or because we hit a new record packing time today, but it was definitely worth the fake ink.
Shoutout to Brent for the masterful artistry. 🤣🦆
Today I got the most a message that sent me on a trip to the past😂
It was for a 9x13 rug that’s been sitting in my’ garage for MONTHS.
I actually have 3 of these giant rugs sitting in a pile. They’re way too big to sell through TikTok LIVE, so I honestly forgot they existed.
But for some reason, I’ve been getting a bunch of messages about the one that I actually had listed!
Man, what a throwback. 🥹 Just a few months ago I was selling them in garage sales.
It reminded me of when I was meeting customers in person, and just trying to figure this whole reselling thing out.
Now we’re selling on TikTok LIVE, shipping orders across the country, and working toward building something much bigger.
And somehow, we’re still operating out of that same house! 😂
If you’ve been thinking about getting into reselling but don’t know where to start, I’d love to help! Comment down below or I’ll DM me. I’d love to connect and help you get started!
I started with practically no capital and a whole lot of figuring things out. You can too! 🙏🦆
Last night, TikTok shut down our LIVE stream….
Don’t worry, it was just for a few hours. 😂
But overnight, with practically no warning, TikTok completely changed how we’re allowed to sell food on LIVE.
For months, we’ve been using one temporary listing that automatically numbered every item we sold, making fulfillment SO much easier.
Now? No more temporary listings for food. Every type of product needs its own listing. Candy, protein bars, snacks, you name it.
For someone constantly sourcing different inventory, this is a HUGE upset.
A lot of people would see this and give up. They’d think about how this could easily double their packing time and make everything more complicated.
But here’s how I see it:
The people who adapt the fastest are going to have a competitive edge. And if there’s one thing I am, it’s relentless. I look forward to a challenge.
So last night, I spent 2 hours creating 22 different listings and getting everything ready. At midnight, I went back online to test things out.
A few minutes in, we hit around 100 viewers and did $400 in sales with the new setup!
Is it perfect? Not even close. 😂
But when you’re building a business on someone else’s platform, the rules can change overnight.
This is not a setback it’s an opportunity. 🫡🦆
