I’m co-hosting a Best in Tops Party next Tuesday at 12:00 PT. I would love to have my picks from trusted sellers like you guys here. If you have something you’d like featured in the host picks drop a link here. You can also comment on the Party sign in my closet if you’d rather I just peruse and find something. @bitterchipmunk I know a lot of you feel that host picks are the kiss of death and I understand if you’d rather not participate. I have had HP sit forever and ended up ending and re-listing .... but I do get a lot of extra shares to my closet and sales on other items during parties when I’ve had a HP. I’m hosting two more parties in the first week of May but haven’t been given the theme yet. I will post again when I do.

That's very cool Kat! I'll look at my stuff and see if anything looks worthy :-) Just staggered outta bed and only halfway thru my first cuppa coffee.

Thanks! They ask that I find 100 items, 3 per seller, 10 of my own. It’s done in real-time so this will be helpful to just come to this thread to add them. If anyone else has anything but prefer to not post here, feel free to PM me or like/comment on my party sign in my closet. @bitterchipmunk

Last night I shared a bunch of items so I can go to my shares list when the party starts and share from there. If anyone here doesn’t have a Pick by the first hour in, let me know because it would be an oversight- no one is intentionally being excluded unless you tell me to exclude you.
I spoke with another Host from Poshmark and she says data shows the uptick in activity and comments on Host Picks does result in increased shares from the whole closet. So even though followers doesn’t mean buyers, it does mean you’ll get bumped in search more between your self shares.

Thanks so much for doing this! I got a bunch of shares and some new follows, so hopefully that'll turn into sales along the way

Kat- that was AWEsome- thanks so much for the share! It was exciting to see all the shares in my news stream on the 'chosen' top as well as other things in my store. How's it work out for a host? You get tons of new followers and sales or Again, thanks!

After talking to a friend that hosts regularly and used to work somehow for Poshmark, she said to not expect sales from hosting. She said that you really want to do it for the active followers that are more likely to be sharers. PM is simple in that shares are what puts you at the top. You might have the only size 10 J. Crew red dress in a certain style, so searching it by name might be at top, but searches for Size 10 red dress, or Size 10 J Crew Dress, you can go from top 100 to lower than 1000 in minutes as others are shared above yours. I forgot to turn off comment notifications and as soon as the party notification went out the day before, I couldn't use my phone to turn notifications off until I switched to Do Not Disturb. It was crazy full of emoji vomit and people asking for host picks - a lot from people with horrible offerings or non compliant closets. That wasn't that bad, but the worst was the Poshtwats direct sharing dozens of items. I couldn't remove them fast enough and I blocked them because they just kept adding them. I'm scheduled for two more Parties next month and don't know the categories yet. They are 4pm ones, so I really hope it's not makeup or boutique.
I had three sales for asking price (cheap already) and two were from buyer only accounts, so that was a nice surprise.

Kat, Thank you for posting all of this information on your experience hosting! Much appreciated. I would like to do it sometime in the future. Just seems like there are never enough hours in the day........ not enough days in the week! Glad you had a mostly positive experience.
