Description

Welcome to The Business of Reselling, a podcast to help vintage & collectibles resellers grow their businesses, become full time, scale up, increase profits, and learn more about the lifestyle of 6-figure resellers. Your host Jessica Oman is an MBA graduate and co-owner of Storage Warrior, an online reselling business based in Canada, that was recognized as eBay Canada’s Micro Multi National Entrepreneur of the Year in 2019, and we are also eBay 25th Anniversary Hall of Fame inductees. Join me as I try to answer the question: Is it possible to sell $1 million in one year as a vintage & collectibles reseller? To find out, I’ll share selling secrets from million dollar e-commerce sellers, experiment with my own business, share my successes and failures, and – hopefully – sell a million bucks worth of stuff.

The Business of Reselling Episode 61: Millionaire Mindset
2026/01/06
It's 2026! Time to reflect on the original goal of the podcast, which was to explore whether or not $1 million a year in revenue was possible in reselling. Jess discusses whether that goal is still realistic for Canadian resellers given the additional barriers we now face, and provides some ideas for diversifying what you can do with your reselling profits to inch closer to that million.

The Business of Reselling Episode 51: More Tariffs and the Importance of Doing Nothing
2025/03/04
In February I did a podcast about the upcoming tariffs and how resellers might pivot, if necessary, to keep their businesses thriving in spite of it all. Here we are in March and...the situation is pretty much exactly the same. In February I did almost nothing to react and my approach remains the same. The big reactions and responses we should be having include doing everything we can to maintain democracy and fight dictatorship. Meantime, keep your business boring. Listen in for more.
