At the end of every month I do a review of how I did that previous month. This is also the best time to set goals for next month. October is the start of the last quarter, so I also want to look at my long term goals. I have a clear vision for my secondhand bookshop. "We become what we think about all day long." If you had a goal and thought about it on a regular basis you would reach it more easily. - BelleResells, October 2020 Plan w. Me
I can't believe it's been this many years Hyla Brook Books has been in business. I do not sell on Etsy any more (but I miss all the creatives there and the site so maybe I'll open on there my higher priced books that fit a "theme)
Look! I found my first Etsy shop. It was crochet. https://ladaisychain.etsy.com
https://hylabrookbooks.etsy.com I am so proud to see I had over 100 sales!! I wonder how bad the Etsy fees are now, compared to Mercari or Ebay?
I owe Etsy $10, so I can't open my shop yet. It is very difficult to have a successful business when you rely on it for income and are not making enough. My sales have gotten lower over the last few years, but I do think that I just need to customize my shop. I started adding everything, and now my main focus will be certain vintage, themed book collections and lots. I also want to add vintage clothes, DVD's, vinyls, and want to dab in drop shipping.
I want to start a whole new business - if I could be a streamer, or make money selling electronics. It's just an experiment I have. Start a Big Cartel site, SpookEgirl, and drop ship keycaps, keyboard mats, headsets, and maybe a hoodie I designed - I have "sad cupcake" design in mind. Also, I've been dying to make my own jewelry, that's how I started with crafting when I was really little making macrame bracelets and beaded lizards.
What Are My Top 3 Goals This Month with Hyla Brook Books? BelleResells?
October 6th I'm doing a Briar Rose inspired clothing drop. It's Halloween so hoping some of my occult books sell. Ghosts are really popular right now. And I do have a youtube channel for reselling that has a strong community, so maybe if I publish better quality videos I can make money from Youtube.
I need to stay consistent with listing. I'm going to focus on getting sales from Mercari, changing the look on Depop, and listing on Ebay.
list 5 items every day - that's 35 per week. 140 a month. BUT i only want to work on my shop Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays.
Sunday, Oct 1 - List 5, draft 20
Tuesday, Oct 3 - List 5, draft 10
Thursdays, Oct 5 - List 5, draft 5
This means I'll always have listings on the days I don't feel like listing. I also want to time myself, how many hours DO i spend on HBB?
