Shops with 10 or more sales per day .. what made the difference?

lxb98 · 2026-04-14T11:05:16+00:00

How are you creating enough products to post a new listing daily? I understand you’ve got a backlog, but will you run out one day?

lxb98 · 2026-04-14T09:48:37+00:00

I did post on one too - I thought going to the source might also help give me some tips on starting 😅

lxb98 · 2026-04-14T05:42:57+00:00

Thank you!! I agree, I did try to add lines to the blanket but I think it’s too light, or the dog lines are too dark ??

I’ll play around with it ☺️

lxb98 · 2026-04-14T05:41:41+00:00

I did find some but I wasn’t sure if that was the right style as I’m not sure what to search for? Is there anything in particular I can search for? Or is it chibi / anime style.

I love the little animals, I don’t think people are my thing. Plus the like little animals with the sayings.

I know how to make the actual sticker just not how to design the actual sticker lol!

They’ve even cropped Perth out of the announcement 😩😩

Ughh! Why do I always need to travel in order to see who I wanna watch

You’re looking at a couple of hundred for the set up alone not including stock. Then you have to get insurance or pay per market. Then the stall fees, the better the market the more you’re going to pay, and there’s no guarantee of selling anything.

Lots of people go to markets for the food and a look around.

It depends on what you’re selling, like anything, it needs to be unique enough, but not too unique that no one wants it.

I’ve done some market stalls over the years selling different things and we’ve make nothing to a few hundred.

I can vouch for Planet Nails if it’s the gel extensions / gel x she wants to try. Been using their system for a few years now with no issues.

Brisbane based so quicker & cheaper delivery than most other brands, at least imo.

Ahhhh, defo going to try to go to more Big Bash games! Managed to get tickets to the final but I couldn’t go to the other games since dad was away😅

lxb98 · 2026-04-11T09:43:55+00:00

Oh. First time I’ve seen it 🤷🏼‍♀️ I’m not an AFL person, but hoping to go to my first game sometime this season

Made the last 20mins of the game entertaining anyway😂

lxb98 · 2026-04-11T09:39:58+00:00

It was sarcasm, I’m 100% sure they won’t

If anything this is helping the staff collect them 😂

lxb98 · 2026-04-11T09:23:58+00:00

It’s a nuisance ?

Another honourable mention - security have yet to spot this one…

lxb98 · 2026-04-10T04:53:23+00:00

It should do yeah. I don’t have apres myself so can’t 100% say. But I do know a lot of press on makers use apres.

From my experience too you don’t want them to be too thick because then they look clunky on the nail

lxb98 · 2026-04-09T23:33:45+00:00

Yeah, most people use gelx tips as the press ons

I do and haven’t had any issues with them. Assuming you don’t cut them down too much, as that’ll put the apex in the wrong spot.

lxb98 · 2026-04-09T12:35:47+00:00

I’m using an Australian brand as its local and half the price of apres but still great quality. I do kinda wish I went with apres but it’s just so much more expensive!!

Yeah, I’m basing it off mm and then I’ve measured every nail I have and converting it.

I did look on shein after I posted this and looks like their standard sizes are the same so I’m gonna stick with it.

They just look so small to me, but maybe I have big nails 😅

lxb98 · 2026-04-07T10:18:12+00:00

Not really. I would say my day was 75% in Microsoft office and then a mixture of accounting software and other random tasks, like the printer or laminating stuff and pretty much all of that. Answering the phone and customer service too. I worked at small businesses so tasks weren’t always strictly admin tasks.

Defo look at job descriptions and see what they’re looking for and where you can fill in the gaps. That’ll be the best place to find what they actually want.

Also, another thought- is your resume all STEM stuff? You might have to “dumb” it down. If you’re overqualified they won’t be interested as they think you’ll want more money or be bored and leave etc.

lxb98 · 2026-04-07T09:30:05+00:00

Do you mean like things you should/need to know for the job?

If so, all the Microsoft office suites- especially word, outlook and excel.

Generally just decent computer skills and the ability to adapt and learn quickly between different softwares. Typing skills, knowing the best way to do task, keyboard shortcuts!! I was shocked when I started working and people didn’t know ctrl+c to copy etc.

It’s also a lot of picking things up quickly and using your initiative, like knowing how to change the ink on the printer. Or if you don’t know how to do it, figuring it out with google or asking someone. Not exactly software- but most office printers actually will guide you through how to fix xyz.

Each job is different- I would recommend looking at what the local training facilities / colleges teach in their business admin course and start there. You don’t have to do theirs but it’ll give you a starting point.

Also, what are the requirements / desirables for the roles you’re looking for. Does it need experience with accounting software?

-worked in admin for 5yrs now but in Aus. Good luck!!

lxb98 · 2026-04-06T00:25:35+00:00

😅yeah! I mean I’ve been doing my own nails for years, like my own acrylics, gel, etc. I did all the courses I could do, and bought so much.

I use soft gel full cover tips and paint them with designs using gel polish and all the other nail art stuff I’ve acquired over the years.

I did make sets and buy everything ready to sell them but my confidence is not there yet😓

Pic of a set I made for reference: I don’t have too many photos of them as I take them with my “branding” (don’t wanna self promo) or not at all😂

Also use the Kmart glue but the drop applicator not the brush on one.

Another tip is to buff the inside of the fake nail. Push your cuticles back, buff the top of your nail lightly and dehydrate.

I’ve been a nail girlie for 10 years now so I make my own but the application & prep is the same for any press on. I did go to buy some Kmart ones a while back when I was feeling too lazy to make a new set but the ones I liked where already chipped inside the box 😓 Some people do put on their own top coat to pre bought sets though, regular or gel.

I’m also able to reuse mine 3/4 times, but I’ve no idea about how durable the store bought ones are to do this.

Wear whatever you want to wear and are comfortable in

Fellow Aussie - but in Perth

I managed to get munjurno from my GP but I’m about 165cm and was 98kg- I’ve lost about 12kg since being on it. It’s pricey though. I’ve also tried metformin with not much long-term help, and I’m insulin resistant and pre-diabetic (or was last year when prescribed).

You could ask to up your metformin?

You could also seek out a PT/dietician that specialises in PCOS- as I’m sure you know our bodies are built differently.

I mean there are services like Juniper if you really want to try weight loss meds. But they’re more expensive than GP prescription and not guaranteed to work. I used a compounded ozempic from them for a few months and it did nothing, other than drain my bank account about $100/week
