Book excerpt: This comprehensive guide to opening and running a women's clothing consignment store packs a wealth of information neatly and concisely into a relatively short read. We know you aren't looking for a novel, just the facts. We walk you through the process from the beginning to opening, and beyond.

We provide detailed explanations, tables, and examples to clearly paint the picture of what to expect and how to tackle some of the complexities of the business of consigning. You simply won't find this level of detail in another book. This is truly the playbook for opening and running a successful consignment business. The author has included her tried and true methods that kept her in business when so many around her closed-up shop. Though you cannot rely completely on a 'How To' guide for success, it is an invaluable tool. How you use that tool and the passion that you invest is what will determine whether or not you are successful. We give you a rare, no holds barred glimpse behind the curtain by sharing secrets consignment store owners aren't willing to talk about.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I bet you don't even know the goldmine that's in your closet. My grandmother had the best fashion sense for her era. She was always seen dressed to the nines, pearls in tow, and heels galore. She would never leave the house without her trusty shoulder-pinned sweater. She kept every part of her appearance in check as she visited the salon with a weekly, standing appointment. Lipstick was a must. I inherited her fashionista trait. My Gran, as I called her, was a fashionista to the max. When she passed away, I found myself inheriting her vast walk-in closet collection of savvy vintage clothing. I wasn't quite sure what to do with all of it. I kept the pieces that meant the most to me and began to sell the rest. To my surprise, the demand for vintage clothing in great condition, or renewed, upcycled pieces, is immense, widespread, and appeals to men and women of all ages. My business was born - and it thrived! In my book, I will show you exactly how to go about starting and running your own pre-loved clothing business. You gain not only the monetary benefits of selling a high-demand product, but you will also be saving the world's landfills from unnecessary waste. In 2012 alone, an estimated 14.3 million tons of textiles were discarded to the landfill as reported by the Environmental Protection Agency-an alarming number for something seemingly harmless as discarding old clothes. Why toss clothing that has good life still left in it? There are so many ways you can succeed with your secondhand clothing shop, but the best thing you can do (and the most valuable experience you can get) is to go out and actually do it! Experience is always the best teacher. Until you get out and start selling, you will never be able to grasp everything fully that running a used clothing shop entails. Of course, the most important thing you can do is to be prepared for it, just so you know you're setting yourself up for success. You will have the tools you need in this book to start making good money by selling old clothes. You will learn: About crafting a plan for your business Finding who your customer will be Where to place your brick-and-mortar store, should you go that route Creating a solid marketing plan Budgeting and costs How to conduct market research Building your inventory and where to source products Upcycled hacks to increase the life of your products Advice for online marketplaces such as ThredUP, Poshmark, eBay, Depop, Facebook Marketplace, Tradesy, Vinted, Instagram, Craigslist, Mercari, LePrix, The Real Real, Grailed, VarageSale, Etsy, Shopify, and Amazon FBA How to set up a physical, brick and mortar store Branding and logo design Inventory management techniques Marketing strategies - direct and online How to set your prices Finally, how I grew my business - with advice about running a physical and online sales hybrid You will gain a much deeper understanding of how to start, run, and grow your own secondhand clothing business. Click "Add to Cart" now! You won't regret it! I wish I had this book when I first started my business. I also absolutely LOVE the variety of marketplaces available since I started my business. These choices can be difficult to navigate, and my book will guide you. For a limited time, when you purchase the paperback book on Amazon, you can download the Kindle version for FREE as my gift to you for your continued success.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you one of the many women out there who needs a brand-new model for your business career? Are you looking for entrepreneurial alternatives to the world of big business, but aren’t sure where to start? A transition into small business is a natural progression for countless women who have invested the first phase of their careers in large companies. Many mid-career women dream of starting their own businesses, but until now there hasn’t been a book that gives them the sense of multiple choice that helps them find the right entrepreneurial fit—options that go beyond starting a venture to include buying an independent business or a franchise, joining or consulting for small businesses, or working with partners. There’s a confusing array of how-to books out there with general advice about starting a business, conducting a job search, or balancing work and family. But what entrepreneurial women really need are the strategic tools for choosing and growing a business that will not only make them money, but make them happy as well. Women need direct, gender-specific advice about succeeding financially in their businesses; they also crave the feeling that their work matters, and they want flexibility and control over their professional lives in order to achieve a healthy work-life balance. This book offers them the womenfriendly business advice they need and numerous true-life role models to identify with and emulate. Author Ginny Wilmerding opens women’s eyes to the advantages of buying, joining, or consulting for existing small businesses, fully explaining the alternatives to starting from scratch. If you lack an original business idea, this book will give you the confidence you need to get excited about pursuing a business idea other than your own. But if you do want to start a company from the ground up, there’s plenty of food for thought for you here, too. Wilmerding not only shares her own stories and outside experts’ advice but also includes insightful vignettes from women who have found their niches and are succeeding financially. If you’re wondering how to finance your small business, Wilmerding steers you toward success in obtaining SBA loans and other financing. Finally, if you’re considering partnering with others to share the risk and the fun, she prepares you for partnership success, and explains the importance of good advisers and mentors. The goal of this book is to get you started on the path to a successful career in the small business world, a world that needs experienced, smart, versatile women like you to join its ranks. Smart Women and Small Business is the ultimate professional guide for mid-career, business-minded women who want to achieve the same independence and success as their entrepreneurial male peers—but in their own way.

Book excerpt: Michelle Kennedy had a typical middle class American childhood in Vermont. She attended college, interned in the U.S. Senate, married her high school sweetheart and settled in the suburbs of D.C. But the comfortable life she was building quickly fell apart. At age twenty-four Michelle was suddenly single, homeless, and living out of a car with her three small children. She waitressed night shifts while her kids slept out in the diner's parking lot. She saved her tips in the glove compartment, and set aside a few quarters every week for truck stop showers for her and the kids. With startling humor and honesty, Kennedy describes the frustration of never having enough money for a security deposit on an apartment—but having too much to qualify for public assistance. Without A Net is a story of hope. Michelle Kennedy survives on her wits, a little luck, and a lot of courage. And in the end, she triumphs.

Download or read book From Goodwill to Grunge written by Jennifer Le Zotte and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2017-02-02 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this surprising new look at how clothing, style, and commerce came together to change American culture, Jennifer Le Zotte examines how secondhand goods sold at thrift stores, flea markets, and garage sales came to be both profitable and culturally influential. Initially, selling used goods in the United States was seen as a questionable enterprise focused largely on the poor. But as the twentieth century progressed, multimillion-dollar businesses like Goodwill Industries developed, catering not only to the needy but increasingly to well-off customers looking to make a statement. Le Zotte traces the origins and meanings of "secondhand style" and explores how buying pre-owned goods went from a signifier of poverty to a declaration of rebellion. Considering buyers and sellers from across the political and economic spectrum, Le Zotte shows how conservative and progressive social activists--from religious and business leaders to anti-Vietnam protesters and drag queens--shrewdly used the exchange of secondhand goods for economic and political ends. At the same time, artists and performers, from Marcel Duchamp and Fanny Brice to Janis Joplin and Kurt Cobain, all helped make secondhand style a visual marker for youth in revolt.
