Plan your content calendar and auto-post to Skool, Circle, or Mighty Networks
Day in the Life content taps into our natural curiosity about how others navigate similar challenges and victories. When community members share their daily routines, it fosters empathy and reminds everyone that they are not alone in facing ups and downs. This style of content breaks down barriers, making even new or quiet members feel more at home.
By encouraging members to reflect on their own habits and share highlights or struggles, you create an atmosphere of trust and authenticity. These stories help humanize the reselling journey, providing practical insights and emotional support. As members see themselves in each other's stories, engagement and loyalty increase.

Post these templates regularly to encourage ongoing participation. Pin a Day in the Life thread or create recurring posts to make sharing a habit. Highlight especially relatable or interesting stories to show appreciation and set an example. Encourage all experience levels to join in, and consider running themed weeks focused on different aspects of the reselling day.
Since you may use these on any platform, adapt the format for your audience. On forums or Facebook, longer stories and threaded replies work well. On Instagram or TikTok, encourage short video or photo shares. On Discord or Slack, try daily prompts in chat channels. Always respond to new shares quickly to keep momentum going.
You can structure your 'Day in the Life' posts to focus on specific sourcing strategies members use, such as documenting a trip to local thrift stores (thrifting), sharing behind-the-scenes photos of retail clearance shopping (retail arbitrage), or outlining the process of negotiating with suppliers (wholesale). Encourage members to detail their routines, decision-making factors, and any sourcing wins or challenges, making the content valuable for both new and experienced resellers.
Create template prompts that ask members to show how they tackle backlog inventory (death piles), organize new hauls, or use tools/software for SKU tracking and storage. This not only normalizes common pain points in reselling but also fosters discussion around strategies for improving workflow and reducing overwhelm, which can benefit the whole community.
Design templates that ask specific questions about prepping orders, sourcing packing supplies, or handling high-volume shipping days. Highlight stories about dealing with late-night sales or carrier cut-off times, and encourage sharing tips or mishaps. This gives fellow resellers practical insight into real-world fulfillment challenges.
Absolutely! Include template options that ask members to break down their listing, cross-posting, and relisting processes on various platforms (e.g., eBay, Poshmark, Mercari, Depop). This invites valuable discussion about time management, preferred tools, and differences in platform requirements, helping others optimize their daily workflows.
Use prompts that invite members to share how they schedule sourcing, photographing, listing, and shipping around other life commitments. Encourage honesty about time blocks, multitasking strategies, or the impact of Q4/holiday rush periods. These discussions can normalize real-life constraints and foster community support.
Add template prompts that ask members when and how they review their sales data, choose what metrics to track (e.g., sell-through rate, ASP, profit margins), or adjust pricing. Encourage screenshots or notes about using spreadsheets or third-party tools. This gives others insight into the ongoing business analysis required in reselling.
