What This Means for Resellers

Morning: source inventory (thrift stores, auctions, wholesale). Afternoon: photograph, list, ship orders. Evening: bookkeeping, restock planning.

Resellers deal with unique challenges that generic software was not built for: Tracking cost basis across hundreds of items. Platform fee reconciliation. Multi-channel inventory. Tax complexity with varying state rules. FreshBooks charges $33/month on top of these daily realities. The median reseller earns $38,000/year — $396/year in software subscriptions is a significant percentage of that income, paid every year, forever.
