The Business of Reselling

Welcome to The Business of Reselling, a podcast to help vintage & collectibles resellers grow their businesses, become full time, scale up, increase profits, and learn more about the lifestyle of 6-figure resellers. Your host Jessica Oman is an MBA graduate and co-owner of Storage Warrior, an online reselling business based in Canada, that was recognized as eBay Canada’s Micro Multi National Entrepreneur of the Year in 2019, and we are also eBay 25th Anniversary Hall of Fame inductees. Join me as I try to answer the question: Is it possible to sell $1 million in one year as a vintage & collectibles reseller? To find out, I’ll share selling secrets from million dollar e-commerce sellers, experiment with my own business, share my successes and failures, and – hopefully – sell a million bucks worth of stuff.
