Pro Flipper Show Kick Off Episode
Rob: What's up, Pro Flippers? Do not change that channel. You did see it, right? The Pro Flipper Show is what you're listening to and we're gonna dive into it today.
Melissa: So don't change that channel. We're gonna dive into all the different changes, which isn't gonna be a lot. And we're so excited to talk to you and bring you a new spark to our show.
Rob: All right, guys. On today's episode, we are diving into the new title of the show, the Pro Flipper Show. We are stoked to actually rebrand and jump into this, which we feel like is a little bit more on brand for us.
Melissa: Yeah. So we've had the Reseller Hangout Podcast for the last year and a half now.
We've been doing episodes almost three days a week. We took off I think in the summer and at Christmastime a little bit, but it's been an amazing journey. And it's not changing. We're not going away. We're still here. So don't get, like, don't be upset if like, oh, they're gonna change it or all this stuff.
We're not changing a lot, we're just really putting it more on brand for our brand and we're still gonna bring other resellers in. We have a couple lined up already that we wanna talk to over interviews, some of our students interviews and then our tips and stuff that we, stuff that we're going through as we're selling.
Rob: You guys know we do this business. We absolutely love the reselling business. We love the high profits that we're able to do in this business. We're gonna keep doing 'em. Absolutely love them. And we're gonna constantly bring you the tips that we learn throughout our sales on eBay, and what our students are doing as well.
So we're gonna be continuing to give you guys great advice throughout this podcast.
Melissa: Continuing, continuing,
Rob: Continually, something like that. But we're gonna still give you guys amazing advice. We're gonna have fun with the show and we still will bring amazing guests to be able to give you kind of their tips in the way that they're running their business because.
Melissa: Yeah, different business models and absolutely it's fun to see different business models and learn how people are doing things in their business.
And you might pick something up that works for you and your business. So, I think we didn't really know. When we started a podcast, everybody's like, oh, you know, like a podcast. It's great. You need to start a podcast. Or we've heard it for years, or a lot of people have podcasts. We're like, well, just try it and let's see what it is.
And so we did. And I, we, I personally, I didn't wanna add one other thing to my plate to do. But I surprisingly have enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would.
Rob: So we have a blast of doing this for you guys. We love the interaction that you guys have actually given us some feedback. Absolutely love it.
So, we're gonna continue to do it. We're going to continue to do it. As long as you guys wanna listen to us, we're gonna give you great tips on this flipping journey or this flipping game as we call it, because it is so much fun.
Melissa: Yeah. And we do enjoy trying to bring three times a week. So that, I think that that is a, for us personally, that's a fun schedule because we like to listen as we run.
So like, we enjoy diving into somebody's podcast. So like, one of our favorite podcasts went down from like three to four times a week to one time a week. And they're like, ah, we can only, we can't listen every day. Like, we like to listen to it. I know. It's only one time we get, we get to listen to it. Yep.
So we're like, we, our goal is to at least, you know, three times a week. And and it's fun. We get to talk on different topics, see what's going on, see what's going on in your business. And we'd love to hear from you too. So, some of the best ways to get in touch with us, you can leave us a question at fleamarketflipper.com/question, and hopefully we can get it answered on here in one of the episodes. Or DM us on Instagram. That's another great way to get in touch with us, and let us know, like something you wanna hear, a topic you wanna learn more about. And we would love to discuss it and have a, yeah, have a discussion about it. So.
Rob: We love spending time with you guys and definitely if you drop us a line, let us know any struggles that you're having throughout your flipping business, any questions that you are thinking you might run into, in the future, let us know. We're happy to do shows. We're happy to do interviews with people, even, you know, somebody that you'd like to see us interview with. Absolutely.
Drop us a line, let us know how we can do it, how we can help. And we would totally be there doing this for you with the Pro Flipper Show.
Melissa: Do you feel like that you have enjoyed this a lot more than you thought that you would like?
Rob: Absolutely.
Melissa: Like you kind of, you thought about like, okay, we're starting a podcast.
It's another thing to do. Like all the things that we're doing, we, you know, we do coaching, we do a lot of different things. Yeah. And so.
Rob: It's another way for us to express what's going on in our business, in our lives. Melissa and I, we spend time with each other every single day. We love it. We love interacting with each other.
So this is just another way for us to do that and also give some great advice to people who are out there doing this flipping business. We, we love helping in any way that we possibly can.
Melissa: Yeah, and I will say that, you know, this kind of coming into this, era, or I don't know what you would say, what word the economy feels a little crazy.
Like the world feels a little crazy. But the, like, that's one awesome thing about this business. Like we deal with used items, we deal with the resale business, and this industry really thrives like. Value items thrive during, all those stores, thrift store, they thrive during these times. So, it's pretty cool.
Like even we've had some of our best months, some of our students have had some of their best months, so we're excited to see what people are gonna be able doing in the next little bit,, and growing their business. So yeah, we're excited for that.
