How to Start Selling on Whatnot (the PiPPY Way ✨)
If you’ve ever thought “I could totally do that” while watching a Whatnot live… you’re right. You can. And honestly? There’s never been a better time to jump in.
I’m Alicia (aka PiPPY) — I sell full-time on Whatnot, I’ve built an incredible community there, and it’s been one of the most fun (and profitable) platforms I’ve ever used. So let’s break it down, no overwhelm, just real talk.
What Is Whatnot Anyway?
Think live shopping meets community meets adrenaline 🤍
You go live, show your items, chat with your people in real time, and sell via auction or Buy It Now. Fashion, vintage, jewelry, home, collectibles — if you can ship it, you can sell it.
No fancy website. No ads. No algorithms fighting you.
Just you + your personality + your products.

Step 2: Don’t Overthink Your First Inventory
You do not need hundreds of items.
Start with:
-
Things you already sell
-
Closet clean-out pieces
-
Small batches of product
-
Easy-to-ship items
What sells best?
✨ Things people can’t touch anywhere else
✨ One-of-a-kind, curated, styled, or explained by YOU
Step 3: Go Live Before You Feel “Ready”
This is your PiPPY pep talk:
👉 No one’s first live is perfect.
What matters more than polish:
-
Showing up
-
Talking like a human
-
Having fun
-
Being honest
People buy from people, not perfection.
Step 4: Build Community (This Is the Secret Sauce)
Talk to your chat.
Remember names.
Laugh when things go sideways.
Be consistent.
Whatnot rewards:
-
Engagement
-
Retention
-
Authentic vibes
The sales follow the connection. Always.
Step 5: Stay Consistent (Even When It’s Quiet)
Some lives are 🔥
Some lives are crickets 🦗
Both matter.
Every live teaches the algorithm and your audience who you are.
Momentum compounds.
Final PiPPY Thoughts 💫
If you want:
-
A real connection with customers
-
Faster sales cycles
-
A platform that actually supports sellers
-
And a way to make money using your personality
Whatnot is it.
And if you want to learn how I do it, build confidence, and actually make money (without burning out) — you’re in the right place.
