She Earns $10,000 Per Event Selling Other People’s Clothes

📝 An interview with Sarah McAffry of Statemint Consignment…

• How to Start a Clothing Consignment Business: $10k+ Per Event

Sarah sells other people’s unwanted clothing on their behalf and takes a percentage.

But she’s selling at temporary in-person events (ie. consignments), not online…

Sarah believes the event model, with its built-in urgency and scarcity, is what makes it work. They’re only open 10 days a year (split between two events), which creates that “you snooze, you lose” mentality that drives sales.

Sarah’s business has expanded to 23 locations across the USA and she now has a franchise program 🔥

You could try doing this yourself or team up with her…

The timing seems right. According to ThredUp’s latest report, the resale market is growing 15x faster than traditional retail.

You could also try this for items other than clothing. 

Maybe help people clean out their garage or attic, then sell the stuff on their behalf, take a cut 😎
