Selling your products is as fundamental in the reselling business as buying, so to scale your business it is necessary to have a reliable Marketplace where you can list and sell shoes in the easiest way possible, and with that being said we present to you Alias!
Alias is a selling platform that takes care of many of your tasks as a reseller, such as taking product photos, or interacting with customers. Advantages are existing customers since Alias is the selling platform for big marketplaces like Goat and Fightclub! In this guide we will teach you everything you need to know to become a successful seller on Alias.
Note: if you're already an experienced seller, you can go to the last alinea of this page, where we explain when you will be a powerseller and many more interseting facts about selling on Alias as a powerseller.
Creating an account
First you need to download the Alias app and create an account, it will ask you to fill in your email, your full name, address and phone number etc. Note: Make sure that before you change your phone number you contact Alias support and also change the phone number on your Account aswell as it is necessary for your payout!
After you have created your Seller’s account you need to provide a credit card to put items for sale, to do so, go to ➡️ Account ➡️ Settings ➡️ Payment method and add your credit card. If you don't know what a creditcard is or you don't know wich one is the best, we suggest you to read the "Creditcard Overview" guide:
Creditcard-debitcard GuideYour creditcard is used as proof for Alias to know who is selling on their platform, so people can be held accountable if they don't ship there items. Besides that the creditcard is also used to get charged for shipping fees when your shoe is declined, wich we will discuss in the next paragraph.
Listing items
After you've done all these steps you are ready to list your products for sale, to do this click on "Search“ and enter the SKU or the exact product name in the Search bar at the top, we recommend the first option as it is more accurate, then you can click on the displayed product, if you scroll down you can see information about the Product such as the SKU, Release date etc. You will also see a sales chart with data like sales volume and sales prices, at first you will be directed to the Local sales chart which shows the data of the local sales, if you click on "Global“ you will see the global sales chart which is more important for us since we sell worldwide (Picture 2). We don't want to sell regionally as the sales data is always less and you have a very low chance by selling there, and it also prevents undercutting in a way.
You also have the option to click on "Prices" to get more information about the Selling prices, "Global Indicator" is usually the lowest ask, so you have to match this ask in order to sell the product faster, it’s also possible to click on "Offers" to view offers -if available-, you can then accept them and immediately sell your product for the offerprice. If you then decide to put your product up for sale press "List item", and describe the condition of your product as well as thebBox and set a price, we recommend in most cases to press "Global indicator" to match the lowest ask as said before: "This because we don't want to sell regionally as the sales data is always less and you have a very low chance by selling there, and it also prevents undercutting in a way".
You can change the price or delete the listing at any time, if your product sells you will receive a push notification and an email, from that moment you have 24 hours to confirm or cancel the order.
Shipping
If you confirm the sale you will get a link sent to your email with 3 files that you need to print.
The shipping label which must be placed on the shipping box.
The invoice for Dpd which is your proof that the package has been delivered to dpd.
A QR code that must be placed in the Shoe box.
Now you are ready to drop off your package at the nearest Dpd pickup store within 3 working days. Note: if you need an extra day you can mark the package as dropped off in the App, but we advise you to only do that if it’s important getting that extra day.
After the package arrives at Alias they will check the Item on authenticity and condition, if the Authenticator notices something wrong with the condition they will send an email and let you offer the buyer a Discount from 0%-20% If the buyer doesn’t accept the Discount the Product can either be sent back to you or it will get in consignment. We would recommend to consign it if it is a non hyped item, as shipping fees will ruin the profit most of the times.
Cashout
When the Product passes Alias Verification process the Funds will be released in "Account" and you can withdraw your payout, to do so you need to verify yourself by a phone number and choose a withdrawal option, you can choose between are Paypal(USD) and bank transfer.
Point System
Every user start’s with 90 points, you can see your point balance at the home screen in the right corner, how the point system works is explained by Alias themselves: "For each successful sale, 2 points will be added to your seller score. In the event your order is canceled or an issue is reported with your order, 10 points may be deducted from your total seller score." The consequences of a low seller score are higher seller fees.
And that’s it for this guide, for further Questions feel free to ask in the Discord chat! PS: Their is still a chapter below, about how to become a powerseller in the future, you can read that aswell, but for now it is not important to do.
Power seller! How does it work?
When reaching arround 1000 points and having a total revenue of 100K sales, you will get an email for Alias, that you have reached the power seller level. But what does that mean? Well, a powerseller will get the option to consign sneakers whenever they want, you get a contact person, wich you can whatsapp if you have any issue or any quistions on certain object.
