I love reselling my stuff on Poshmark nearly as a lot as I really like purchasing on {the marketplace}—I have been shopping for there for a decade, and utilizing it to dump my outdated stuff for about two years now. However simply because I have been at it some time does not imply I do know all the pieces there may be to know. I’m all the time discovering new methods to maximise my earnings whereas minimizing my efforts.
Working example: Just a few weeks in the past, I wrote about PrimeLister, a third-party app that automates plenty of the extra tedious components of promoting on Poshmark. Although I nonetheless use it, I am critically reconsidering the $30/month subscription payment after discovering {that a} beneficiant handful of PrimeLister’s paid options are literally obtainable within the Poshmark itself—without spending a dime. They’re just a bit difficult to search out and use.
This is how discovering Poshmark’s “bulk actions” instruments have helped me stage up as a reseller, they usually can be just right for you, too.
The advantages of utilizing bulk actions on Poshmark
I’ve.efficiently resold sufficient stuff to earn the standing of “Poshmark Ambassador.” Mainly, this entitles me to a badge on my vendor profile that lets folks know I am reliable and ship merchandise patrons love. Solely a few of the necessities for the badge need to do with what I am really promoting, although. Others are based mostly on issues like what number of merchandise from different sellers I’ve shared to my followers, and what number of of my very own merchandise I’ve shared to numerous locations on the app.
All of that sharing takes time, nevertheless—you must open every itemizing and manually hit share, which takes some time if you wish to share the ten,000 listings that get you boosted standing. This previous spring, I began utilizing PrimeLister to automate all of it and save myself a ton of tedious effort. I additionally used the service to ship automated affords to individuals who’d beforehand appreciated my listings: The app despatched a ten% off provide any time somebody appreciated a product, or I may blast out a bulk provide (say, 30% off on all the pieces) that might notify individuals who had appreciated any of these items.
I used PrimeLister religiously and it positively generated gross sales even because it helped me earn my Posh Ambassador badge. Bulk actions, I discovered, are the way in which to go. However you needn’t pay for the privilege—Poshmark has some free bulk actions instruments anybody can use.
Tips on how to handle bulk actions without spending a dime within the Poshmark app
Initially, I did not put a lot thought into finishing all of these duties from inside Poshmark itself, because it appeared like the one method to share my listings was to do it one by one. PrimeLister’s $30 per thirty days payment appeared like a small worth to pay, because it it routinely shared my listings, different folks’s listings, and even my merchandise to theme-appropriate “Posh Events” (scheduled occasions that create a touchdown web page the place you’ll be able to function something you are promoting that matches the theme.)
However just lately, I used to be poking round on the Poshmark app throughout lunch once I seen a button I had by no means seen earlier than. Tapping it actually modified all the pieces for me as a vendor: I had found there have been bulk actions I may full from throughout the Poshmark app, without spending a dime..

Execs and cons of every possibility to remember
On PrimeLister, I’ve set it up in order that if, say, an activewear Posh Celebration is occurring at 11 a.m., all of my Nike, Adidas, Set Energetic, and Gymshark listings will likely be shared to it routinely, with out me having to do something—PrimeLister takes care of it. More often than not, I do not even understand a Posh Celebration is occurring; the app simply shares my related listings to it. Whereas I can share applicable listings to Posh Events utilizing the instruments menu on Poshmark itself, I nonetheless have to take action manually by hitting Share to [name of] Posh Celebration, then choosing the products I wish to share from a listing of related listings. I do choose PrimeLister’s automated Posh Celebration sharing, as I can not log in each hour to test if there is a celebration occurring.
If you wish to be a Posh Ambassador, you should still have to depend on PrimeLister, as there is not any method to hit these 5,000 shares from different folks’s storefronts utilizing the majority actions instruments. You’ll be able to share all your personal listings and hit the requisite 5,000 share minimal that approach, however you continue to need to deal with sharing from different closets by yourself. (Truthfully, although, you’ll be able to hit that minimal throughout your one-week free trial of PrimeLister—I did.)
Although Poshmark would not have a method to ship automated affords to likers the way in which PrimeLister does, it really has one thing higher hidden within the instruments menu: The My Consumers tab. From there, you’ll be able to see everybody who’s appreciated an inventory, add their appreciated itemizing(s) to a bundle, and ship them direct messages. You’ll be able to ship bulk affords on bundles folks have made from your stuff, in addition to work together straight with previous patrons. Since discovering this function, I’ve made quite a lot of gross sales simply by creating bundles and sending reductions. Just a few folks have even simply purchased all the bundle immediately after I created it for them. You’ll be able to’t do this on PrimeLister.
I am preserving my PrimeLister subscription…for now
For now, I am nonetheless utilizing PrimeLister to routinely share my listings and people of others, however I am not sending out instantaneous affords with it as I segue into utilizing the in-app options on Poshmark as an alternative. To date, it is going effectively: Between the 2 instruments, I am saving time, and making sufficient gross sales that I can afford the $30 a month payment for now.
But when your personal resales do not justify $30 per thirty days for PrimeLister, I hope it is helpful to study that Poshmark has had the same set of options hidden in that tucked-away menu the entire time.
