    Over the years, Poshmark has grown, changed, and evolved. As someone who has shopped and sold on Poshmark since 2016, I have firsthand experience navigating the new developments.

    Arguably, one of the most significant changes to this app is the addition of live shows. Modeled after another popular app like Poshmark, Whatnot, users can now go live on Poshmark to showcase and sell their items.

    So, like many, if you’re new to live selling, we have just the post for you! In this post, we answer all of your burning questions surrounding how to go live on Poshmark.

    Plus, learn insider tips for having successful Poshmark live shows filled with sales!

    Apply To Be A Poshmark Live Host

    The first step in learning how to go live on Poshmark involves first joining the Poshmark live show waitlist. At this time of this writing, Poshmark is continuing to slowly integrate new sellers into the live portion of the app.

    To jump in on the waitlist, follow these steps:

    1. Open the Poshmark app.
    2. Tap on your profile in the bottom right corner
    3. Tap “My Posh Shows.”
    4. Here, you can tap ”Sign Up.”

    Once you are approved, you will receive an email from Poshmark informing you that you’re officially off of the waitlist and ready to go.

    Poshmark Live Pre-Show

    Once you receive the email giving you the go-ahead, it’s time to prepare for your first Poshmark live show! The first step is to perform some necessary pre-show tasks.

    The first task is to think about if you want to have a certain theme for your live party.

    Niche Poshmark shows tend to have more success. That is because people are more inclined to tune in if they know exactly what they are getting. 

    A Free People show will likely draw more guests than a random grab-bag show. However, there is nothing wrong with a random show! You may have to market your show and entice them in other ways by having low starting prices for your auctions.

    After deciding on your theme, you need to schedule your show for a certain date and time. In order to schedule and go live on Poshmark, follow the steps below.

    1. Open the Poshmark app.
    2. Tap on your profile in the bottom right corner
    3. Tap “My Posh Shows.”
    4. Tap ”Create.”
    5. Input your show details including the start time and duration
    6. Add a Covershot
    7. Select your show type, whether it is a live show or a silent show.

    Next, add all of the listings that you want to sell in your live show. You can add up to 50 items. In this step, make sure that you are satisfied with your titles, descriptions, pictures, and prices.

    Lastly, get your backdrop ready! Make sure to grab your ring light, tripod, or any other equipment that makes your live show look professional and helps you throughout the show.

    Tips During Your Poshmark Live

    Now you’ve put in the prep work and you’re ready for some customers. Start your live, and get ready to bring the energy!

    It is important to note that Poshmark live shows can only be started on the Poshmark app. You cannot go live on Poshmark from the desktop browser version of the platform.

    Once you’re ready to go live on Poshmark, follow the steps below.

    1. Open the Poshmark app.
    2. Tap on your profile in the bottom right corner
    3. Tap “My Posh Shows.”
    4. Tap “Posh Show Details”
    5. Tap “Enter Show”
    6. Wait for the countdown, and tap “Start Show” whenever you are ready!

    Be sure to greet your guests and inform them of any important information. Also, keep in mind that potential customers can come and go so repeat any information periodically throughout the show if necessary.

    Although it can be tough to describe items and sell, it is important to keep up with the comments and answer any questions. Plus, it helps to keep up with some friendly conversations with your guests.

    This helps keep the show friendly, fun, and engaging. If that is the case, you know these shoppers will be coming back for more!

    Poshmark Live: Post Show

    What a rush! You just finished a Poshmark live show. Navigate to your sales portion of the app to see all of the purchases made in one place.

    As you normally would, print the Poshmark shipping labels for these items, pack them up, and get them on their way to your customers as soon as you can!

    Also, consider having regularly scheduled Poshmark live shows. This helps with consistency if your regular shoppers know the date and time that you typically run your Posh shows.

    Now that you know how to sell live on Poshmark, what are you waiting for? Get your first show started and let us know how it goes in the comments below!

        Hi Cheryl!

        It took about 2 weeks for me to get approved. To my knowledge, you do not need to list prior to approval.

      Hello,

      If I do a live show and someone purchases more than one Item, do I ship them
      all together or individually? Because each item gets its own shipping lable.

        Hi Paget!

        Bundled shipping will automatically apply when a shopper purchases multiple items from the same seller in a Posh Show. If this is not working for you, reach out to Poshmark customer support!
