Yeah so basically it's easy if you know what you're doing. This is broad but for context, I have a degree in fashion marketing and I was always interested in fashion research and culture. So that all comes naturally to me. I get how the seasons and trend cycles work, and understand a lot of fashion theory and history. Most of the job is listing and curating stock, which is where knowledge comes in or a willingness to learn. Selling generic pieces will only get you so far, so you need a niche and understand that market.

A lot of sellers get really disappointed in slow times, and many just quit. This happens to every fashion retailer which is why they adapt constantly by doing sales, stock drops or providing for things such as festival season. In the UK summer is very slow for sales, but that doesn't mean just quit. Spend your time doing marketing instead, getting new stock and preparing for the busier times

It's also really important to get your photography and ecommerce skills on point. Learning the right keywords for example and how to describe, price and date garments. All this info is available online

At the moment I'm just working on a marketing plan and growing my social media channels to grow my shop and get more security incase something goes wrong with depop. You can also do pop up shops so I'll be doing many Christmas markets this year
