I’ve been reselling bags for over a year now. Today, I earn ₹1 Lakh+ per month, and I’ve made all the mistakes so you don’t have to.
Here’s exactly how to start reselling smartly in 2025 — with zero course, no scams, just real work and results.
❌ First, What NOT to Do:
- ❌ Don’t use Meesho – cheap product quality = unhappy customers = zero repeat orders.
- ❌ Flipkart & Amazon do not support individual resellers properly.
- ❌ GlowRoad is discontinued.
✅ Now, What WORKS in 2025:
The only platform that really works for new resellers is 👉 Instagram.
Why?
Because you can:
- Build your brand
- Post beautiful content
- Talk to customers directly
- Run low-budget ads to boost sales
🛍️ Step-by-Step Reselling Plan
1. Choose a Product Segment (Gifting Works Best)
Select something that sells well in gifting. Some ideas:
- Bags (like I do)
- Salwar suits
- T-shirts (tricky to size – not recommended)
- Mugs (also overdone)
- Other unique gifting items (lamp sets, jewellery, name plates, etc.)
📌 Tip: Stick to ONE segment in the beginning.
2. Create a Fresh Instagram Page
- Brand it well: name + logo + clean bio
- Whether you show your face or not — doesn’t matter anymore
- Make the account look genuine and consistent
3. Find Trusted Instagram Vendors
Search Instagram for sellers in your chosen segment. Look for:
✅ Minimum 5,000+ followers
✅ Real customer reviews & stories
✅ Good quality product photos
🚫 Avoid pages with 100–500 followers — they’re often unreliable.
4. Buy Samples from Multiple Vendors
- Message them: “I’m a reseller, want to order 1 sample per item”
- Most vendors will agree if they know you’re a serious reseller
- Order 3–4 samples and test the quality yourself
5. Click Your Own Product Photos
- Use natural light + normal phone camera
- Don’t use vendor photos (customers see them everywhere – zero trust)
- Use Canva or Snapseed to enhance the photos
- Keep it simple and authentic
6. Post on Instagram (15–20 Posts Before Ads)
- Make posts with clear photos and basic product details
- Use relevant hashtags (#giftideas #bagsinindia etc.)
- Post regularly (at least once a day)
7. Run Ads: ₹100 Per Day Is Enough
- Start ads once you have 15–20 good posts
- Budget: ₹100/day
- Target women aged 18–34 in major cities
- Result: You can make ₹500+ profit daily even with ₹100 ad spend
8. Scale With Confidence
Once you cross:
- 100+ posts
- Daily responses from customers
- ₹500–1000/day profit
Then scale your ads to ₹200–300/day — and your sales and profit will multiply fast.
💬 Final Word
This business won’t make you rich in one week. But if you stay consistent:
- 3–4 hours/day
- ₹5K/month starting investment
- Focused work for 3–6 months
You WILL earn ₹30K–₹1 Lakh+ per month. I’m proof of that.
