There are so many wonderful things in Xianyu, tell me what experiences you have had.

I don’t have any special skills, nor have I received any professional training. I have an average appearance and a thin body. I don’t look like a talented person. If I can do it in half a year, If you earn over 10,000 yuan a month, I believe you can do it too.

Of course, this is also related to my previous work experience. Before selling iPads, I also worked in a factory. At that time, I was a small squad leader, leading a number of employees to complete an assembly line every day. Task, this made me understand that the most useful thing about this production plan instruction order is to coordinate manpower work with other line-pulling squad leaders.

Usually a project only needs to win over one key person, and as long as other important personnel do not strongly oppose it, we can almost complete the production task smoothly. The early process may be a little difficult, but once it is successfully completed After winning and establishing a relatively smooth relationship, basically no more energy will be needed for future communication and coordination.

Because the other party is also a human being, and since he is a human being, he does not want to cause trouble. Now that the previous things have been settled smoothly, the rest will naturally follow the same path as before.

One thing I understand about this is that don’t cause trouble to others. No one likes trouble unless it brings greater benefits.

In June of 2020, people on the Internet were advocating Internet entrepreneurship, especially Douyin to sell goods. I was also a restless person, so I started trying to get into the trap.

Of course it was Douyin at the beginning. I joined a group in Tieba and saw some courses on how to create a Douyin account shared by a few friends. I felt that everything is difficult at the beginning, so I had to do it first and then talk about it. Learn by doing, just learn editing and publishing.

When the Douyin account was first started, a good one could gain 10,000 to 20,000 followers in a few days. A good one could sell more than 400. I started with 5 mobile phones. , I actually earned 5,00 in one month. At that time, I really felt that it was easier to make money on the Internet.

The only thing is that it’s a bit boring. At that time, there were a lot of internet celebrity incubators, online warehouses, drop shipping, etc., but most of them were unreliable, so I just bought them myself. I bought some small things and bought tens of thousands of dollars from selling them myself. I started the live broadcast with confidence. I won’t go into details about this process. I believe you can guess it. In short, it is a loss.

Through this incident, I understand that don’t rush to invest your money before doing anything, because the risk of investing is beyond your control.

It was quite sad at the time. It wasn’t that I couldn’t accept the loss of tens of thousands of dollars, so I felt frustrated.

But now it seems that the knowledge that tens of thousands of dollars can buy it back is quite cost-effective, and it will also save me a lot of money in the future.

This is why I later chose to be Xianyu.

Xianyu was relatively simple at the time. It was just looking for goods on Pinduoduo, Taobao, and then posting on Xianyu to earn the price difference. It was a 0-source project mentioned online.

But in fact, the thunder is loud and the raindrops are light. It is almost impossible to earn more than 10,000 yuan a month using this method of transportation.

At that time, I shipped more than a dozen products every day and could place orders every day, but the average profit was only about ten yuan, and I had to work more than ten hours a day. I felt it was too much. It was not cost-effective and too slow, so I didn’t stick with it.

At that time, I saw many people selling mobile phones and tablets on Xianyu, but I didn’t start until I solved the problem of supply.

In addition, I had to go to work and be busy with other things at the time, so I thought about suppressing my feelings every day, and I was still a little impatient at the time.

Later, I listened to some courses in July and decided to give it a try. Well, the time was very suitable at that time. During the National Day Golden Week, everyone had nothing to do at home and just hung out on Xianyu every day. The flow of people is surprisingly high, there are dozens of people every day.

Let me ask, at that time I had three mobile phones, but I could place orders every day. The average profit from the iPad was about 100 yuan, which meant that I could make three to four hundred yuan every day.

At that time, I thought I was going to make a fortune. I said that I would be able to earn over 10,000 yuan a month in just a few days.

But after the Golden Week, the flow of people dropped a bit, and I felt a little depressed. I just wandered around for about half a month, and I didn’t do it seriously.

It is now the end of October, and it will be November soon. Well, I have really started this project.

Well, first of all, let me tell you a few advantages of selling iPads on Xianyu. The first is zero cost, the second is quick realization, the third is sufficient demand, and the fourth is The threshold is low, and the fifth is high growth.

Well, let’s talk about zero cost first. You can just download an app, launch a product, and start your own entrepreneurial journey.

1. There is no deposit, no margin, and no business license required. Compared with Taobao Pinduoduo, it is much simpler to do.

2. Cash is realized quickly. It usually takes four to five days from delivery to receipt, which means you can get your profits in four to five days.

3. There is sufficient demand. As of July 2020, the total number of Xianyu users has exceeded 200 million, the daily active users have exceeded 20 million, and the online sellers have exceeded 30 million. , currently there are more than four million users walking around on Xianyu every day, more than one billion products are released every year, and the total annual transaction size exceeds 200 billion yuan.

Currently, Xianyu is China’s most important online trading platform for idle items.

In fact, as small business people like us, we don’t need to pay attention to so many huge numbers. I can sum it up in one sentence: I post every day, and people ask me every day. If I ask enough questions, I can sell it. .

It does not require strong operational capabilities or professional skills.

For pictures and copy, you can copy them from your peers, or you can take pictures of them yourself. For the copy, you can simply change them, or you can write a dozen or twenty words yourself.

It took me less than a month to go from knowing nothing at the beginning to being able to solve more than 80% of the problems. Under normal circumstances, customers can’t ask any difficult questions. .

If he asked Baidu and GaoGong, the demand for electronic products in modern society is increasing day by day. We can't imagine what it would be like to live in a world without electronic products.

The potential of Xianyu is far from its upper limit. Compared with countries such as the United States, Japan and Europe with very mature second-hand markets, we still have a long, long way to go.

The active users of the Xianyu platform must be growing, which means that our potential buyers are actually always growing.

So after talking about these advantages, let’s talk about some of my understanding of this project.

First of all, it’s about maintaining an account. I think you don’t need to listen to those fantastic introductions on the Internet. Personally, I just use it normally, buy things, go shopping, leave messages and interact. Not many, but on average a single account can receive tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of exposures every day, and occasionally a post can reach dozens or millions.

Well, there is no need to pursue it deliberately, I can do whatever I want.

The kind of people who blow their horns to the sky are most likely to be cutting leeks. I wish I could play the horn for half an hour without playing so well.

Then how do you pay the fee?

Actually, I just take a look at it normally. I should look at it and come back when I should.

Just remember one sentence, you want Xianyu to think that you are a normal user. A normal user will not go to the fish pond at the same time, nor will he go to the fish pond at the same time. Just leave some messages to your colleagues when you have time. Do this every day, and it will be better as a whole to be more natural.

The second issue is about the product. This iPad is different from a mobile phone. There are various brands, various memories, and various colors of mobile phones, which is very troublesome. There are only one or two iPads every year, and each model only has two. There are so many parameters online for the three types of memory that most people won’t ask you very specific questions. At most, they’ll ask you about the quality and function. Occasionally, they’ll ask you to recommend one that’s frequently shipped. Five or six models, in other words, you don’t have that many products to learn.

The third problem is the supply of goods.

As long as you clearly describe the machine you need, I will have it in stock in most cases. You are only responsible for posting posts to sell it. Shipping and after-sales are all my business.

You can choose express delivery. Generally, we use SF Express. Except for special remote areas, it can usually arrive within three days. Then the customer takes one or two days to receive the goods and four to five days to collect the money. This is how we do it. Calculate it.

Finally, I would like to share with you some possible misunderstandings about selling iPads

First of all, is it necessary to sell products? Want high exposure?

Actually, that’s not the case. I often get exposures of 10,000 to 20,000 yuan a day, but I can still sell a few units. It mainly depends on how you communicate with customers.

Some customers will say some silly-sounding things, but don’t annoy others when they annoy you. You must answer them patiently. Many sellers get annoyed and ignore the customers or just quarrel with them. .

You believe that as long as you work hard, you will get results. In fact, many high-quality customers are ignored by their peers because they cannot communicate. These are your customers.

Second, I have to sell it cheap enough so that customers will buy it.

We must remember that differentiated competition and differentiated competitive price are only one aspect. Your professionalism, your recovery speed, your communication services, your pictures, your copywriting, your account, Your reviews and your prices.

*** determines whether you can sell products. I don’t recommend that you always sell at low prices. Those are your profits. Why don’t we protect them well?

Well, my normal selling price is not high, of course, but it is not low either. It does not affect my ordering. In other words, I only serve customers who value comprehensive experience. I don’t want the cheap ones.

Of course you can also have your own strategies and methods.

The third is that the after-sales service of electronic products is very troublesome.

First, unless you are making cheap machines, normal machines are difficult to break, or if you differentiate the quoted price to be cheaper, you can add a little more profit as your risk premium. .

Second, there is a promise that there will be a time limit for after-sales service. You don’t have to mention it, or you can write less. Don’t just agree to someone’s promise for half a year or a year, right? You’re digging a hole for yourself.

Thirdly, the machine has after-sales service, so don’t be afraid. We will take care of the after-sales service. I will neither rely on it nor run away.

Finally, let’s talk about this income, because I am currently.

I am working full-time, and I can probably earn more than 20,000, but it is not very stable.

The time I spend on this every day is about twelve to sixteen hours, but we cannot estimate income completely based on working hours, but uh, I have to deliver goods, I have to receive goods, I have to collect them Goods, right?

I have a lot of problems to deal with. If you are only responsible for selling, you will work about three hours a day, and earning 5,000 a month will not be a big problem.

If you can work as long as me, there is a high probability that our income will be similar.

So you ask me, what do you think is the biggest secret of this project?

I think the skills of persisting in everything are not worth mentioning in the face of daily persistence.

You ask me if this income is high?

I think it usually takes two or three years to make a million, let alone tens of millions. But this is a good start, isn't it?

Only by taking action will your life truly begin to change.

Most people just think about their current situation.

I feel very irritated, then I will watch videos for a while, and then do it again tomorrow, this kind of cycle.

We have to do any project, what are we waiting for? Are you waiting for someone to send you money directly?

Winning 5 million in lottery tickets will lead you directly to the pinnacle of life?

There is no project that cannot be completed, only people who have not started to do it.

When I was at work, I hated my boss. It wasn’t until I was in business now that I realized how difficult it was for my boss. He blocked almost all real wind and rain for you.

Believe me, your little KPI is nothing in the face of endless industry and commerce, taxation, fire protection, rent, wages, and internal strife.

You don’t owe the company anything, it lets you work, and the company doesn’t owe you anything, it pays you wages.

We can either work on a small project, let go of our obsessions, and be responsible for ourselves, or we can burn ourselves desperately while working.

We have to choose a way to live, right?

To quote a famous saying from the stock god: The best time to plant a tree was ten years ago, and the second best time is now.
