<< SUMMARY: Social Media for Vintage Sellers 

This is a 1.5 – 2 hour session via popexpert, a video-based platform with digital classroom tools like instant “chat” and an area to take notes which automatically saves for future reference.

Learn how to use social media to your advantage in a fun and painless way. Grow your audience of followers, engage with them and understand the psychology of converting “likes” into “sales.”

Understand the nuances of social media tools today that when learned, will change how you use these free marketing tools forever. Plus, because we all deserve to live a healthy and balanced life: what you shouldn’t be focusing on as much as what you should.

You get structured one-on-one time with me, plus private access to 3+ screenshot videos showing you how to use some of the free tools presented in the class so that you don’t forget anything I’ve taught you. 

This class shows you how to act like a major brand – without having to hire a social media manager or spend money on advertising dollars with unknown or ambiguous results.

<< THE VIDEO: Why You Should Take This Class

I explain why this class is tailored to the busy life of an online vintage or secondhand seller.

Through dozens of consulting clients and my survey, “The Real Lives of Online Vintage Sellers,” I’ve realized that finding time to research and execute effective social media strategy is limited for this industry.

I do the research and teach you the tips and tricks you know so that you don’t have to waste time figuring things out for yourself. I empower you with what you need to know now so that you can ignore what isn’t relevant or what’s a passing fad.

I personalize sessions so that no matter what, you know what to do for your business as soon as we get off the video call!

<< Why I Decided to Create This Class 

You asked for it. I thought about it. And I decided to create it. 

<< FROM FACEBOOK

“Hi Sammy, my name is Katie Vincent and I have the little vintage shop called Aligras on Etsy. I was wondering if you could give me a few pointers. I follow you on twitter and you just really have a knack for posting the most interesting things and getting followers. I’m terrible Hahaha! Anyways I was wondering if you had any tips? I really would love for my store and twitter to be successful because I adore vintage items, but I’m an interior designer, not a great sales rep. Any ideas?”

– Katie, Aligras Vintage

<< Still Not Convinced This Class is for You?

Frustration can stem from lack of not knowing what or how to do something.

Are you feeling frustrated, stressed, overwhelmed by social media because you don’t have an educated understanding of how to use it so that it works for you?

When you know what to do and how to do it, you save time, you make money and you gain by your sanity.

Sounds good, right?

If you answer “yes” to any of the questions below – think again.

PROBLEM:  Is social media killing you softly?

SOLUTION: Learn how to do this one thing that’ll make social media easier – more fun – and more effective in the long run. I promise.

****

PROBLEM: Does social media only give you a migrane?

SOLUTION: Grow your audience with viral content that’s like the gift that keeps on giving, which translates into less time spent on social media and more time doing what you love in the vintage fashion industry. 

****

PROBLEM: Are you stumped as to “what to post” three times a day?

SOLUTION: Engage your audience so they see you as a brand as memorable as an H&M, Forever 21 or Zara chain – and not just another vintage seller.

****

Still Need More Convincing?

Here are the stats behind vintage sellers that have successfully figured out the secrets to social media without my help.

And that’s totally OK! Because the good news is that the pie is big enough for everyone.

>> If one vintage seller can have nearly 20,000 followers on Facebook – so can you.

>> If another vintage seller can have nearly 17,000 followers on Instagram – so can you.

>> If this vintage seller can sell straight from Instagram – so can you.

>> If I can have nearly 20,000 subscribers on YouTube – so can YOU!

 

But Honestly … Why You Have No Need to Be Compare Yourself to Others

The Internet created a global economy. And with a global economy comes opportunity to reach far and wide to the followers, fans, supporters, cheerleaders and customers you were destined to have.

But your destined customer base isn’t just going to miraculously “stumble upon you.”

It’s like dating – you still have to “put yourself out there.” Like a single girl on the hunt, you need to put on a sassy dress and hit a few social spots.

 

Read That Key Word Again: SOCIAL.

So do you want to be sitting at home eating ice cream and watching Dirty Dancing for the 20th time, or do you want to be actually hitting the dance floor with a Patrick Swayze lookalike who just might be your true love?

I thought so.

If you’re a Dirty Dancing fan who wants to hit the dance floor of social media, sign up for my class today.

I can’t teach you the hustle, but I can sure teach you the right way to hustle social media for results that promise fulfilling and fun return.

<< What Does popexpert Look Like? 

popexpert is a video based platform and “digital classroom”

Here I am on a recent consulting call with Lucia of Recultivation Vintage.

She’s holding her Droid smartphone to her laptop camera to share her Instagram feed!

Thanks to the personalization of video, we can connect one-on-one wherever you live in the world. It’s a powerful tool that enables us to “work together” as if we were physically in a classroom.

Jump on the call in your most fabulous vintage outfit, or in your workout clothes! Sip some tea, sing your favorite ’70s tune off key or find some stillness meditating before your session with me.

The classroom also has live “chat” functionality (like AOL Instant Messenger) so I can message you links and text as we chat. Plus, an area for you to take private notes which are saved for your reference after the call.

Working with me on popexpert is engaging, educational and most important: fun. Nothing but smiles and #vintagelove all around.

Her tagline “spread vintage love” (hashtag: #vintagelove) stands for the belief that by promoting the virtues of vintage to the world, women feel connected to one another through the history and discovery process of fashion which, ultimately, will help make the world a more loving and supportive place for all.

Sammy’s involvement over the past decade has grown from selling vintage clothing out of the “trunk of her car” at The Brooklyn Flea to operating  A Little Wicked, a leading New York City vintage boutique.

Sammy’s worked with the industry’s top leaders, including Goodwill, Salvation Army,  Housing Works, eBay, Etsy, The Manhattan Vintage Show (the largest vintage show in the US) and Artists & Fleas as well as serving as panelist for various events, including the Independent Fashion Blogger’s annual fashion week convention.

A passion for vintage shopping has connected her to nearly every single vintage store in Manhattan, inspiring her to also serve as spokesperson for New York City vintage shopping. She’s been featured on the Nate Berkus Show, My Fox NY, USA Today and in the book Wearable Vintage Fashion. She’s also written for Huffington Post, Time Out New York, AOL StyleList and contributed features to leading vintage fashion blogs. Her ebook  The 100 Best Vintage Shops Online is now available on Lulu and Etsy.com.

Sammy has a magazine journalism degree from Temple University, where she co-founded the university’s only campus magazine and was a 2006 recipient of the New York Women in Communications “Glamour Magazine” scholarship, as featured on Good Morning America and awarded at the Matrix Awards at the Waldorf-Astoria.

Born and raised in the small-town community of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, Sammy moved to New York City in 2008 to pursue a career in fashion journalism where her passion to help women feel their best inspired her to create Sammy Davis Vintage.
