Ah that’s really encouraging. Thank you. Hope you smash the sales now!!

@@Romero_Meyer Yes i will 😊

Thank you. Appreciate you supporting the channel! 🙌🏾

@@mercysikwane6679 amazing. Well done. It gets quicker each time and soon enough you won’t even be thinking about all the steps, haha.

@@TiyiselaniR well done! Hope it sells out quickly!

@@everythingmzansiix2707 awesome! 🙌🏾 so glad it worked out!

Thank you for supporting the channel, really! 😊

Thank you so much. Appreciate the support! Anything specific that would be helpful?

​@@Romero_MeyerHonestly bro share some lessons you've had selling that you feel can positively impact others just starting out and if you're comfortable share the sales side of business it's motivating to see other people doing well cause you feel like if there's people out there doing it then you also can cheers Bru.

​@@Romero_Meyer😅 I'd also love to see how you discover winning products and how you test them out but I don't know if you can?

@@mosapheto288 thank you. I remember that feeling all too well. The explanations from Takealot when onboarding are not always the clearest practically 😂

Haha, thank you. Just trying to make things easier. 🙌🏾

Only a pleasure. That’s always the goal. No fluffy intro, haha.

Thank you so much! Glad it could help.

Thank you. Posting another one early next week and more after that. 👏🏾

Ah thank you so much for this! I really struggled in the beginning too. Still struggle with certain products and queries, haha. Wish it was a little simpler for all of us.

Well done on being approved on Takealot. Yes, all items need to have the stickers on. Many people just send the stickers to a printing shop, give them the correct sticker paper (as required by takealot) and ask them to print. You can do that in the beginning to get started. Don’t let the printer investment stop you! It will still be super cheap.

@@axolilembaa what do you mean? 😊 labeling the takealot stickers on products?

Thank you. Just made a packaging video that goes over all the basics. Let me know if there’s anything specific :)

So glad :D

Thanks man. Appreciate it!

You’re welcome. Feel free to reach out via Instagram if you need anything. Hope the video helped make it simpler. Unfortunately there’s so much to Takealot and fees, etc so it does take some figuring out.

Too much sometimes, haha.

Ah, glad you enjoyed it!

❤his very good in explaining and very clear.. love his videos his the best teacher

Hey. Just posted the packaging video a few days ago :)

@@shevontrisha3074 hey :) I do have one posted on the channel. Let me know if it helped or if you needed more info!

Hey. Just posted the packaging video a few days ago :)

Thank you. Good luck, hope it sells out quickly. It applies to any package/box that isn’t sealed in some way (like the heat shrink plastic, etc). So in my example, I could literally just open my scale box, so therefore it needs a clear seal-proof sticker.

Thank you! Definitely planning on it. I struggled when we got started as there wasn’t too much resources. Anything in particular you’d like to see with Takealot?

Packaging the products plz!

@@Romero_Meyer also I have a question, when I tried to make my shipment on courier guy it said I have to enable liability cost and stuff, I didn't see you go through such on the vid. Did you ever have that pop up before you paid for the shipment?

@@astroprozo9604 yes, that option always comes up for me too. Just select next/proceed without selecting any options. Before shipment is confirmed it gives a warning to let you know that you haven’t taken any liability cover etc. just continue anyways and confirm if you’re happy with that.

Sorry man last one, Just wanna make sure I'm on track. Should I mark shipment as shipped as soon as the package gets to the DC or I can mark it as shipped once I'm done with putting in the way bill?

Great idea!

@@Romero_Meyer Thanks kindly 🙏🏻

That’s actually a really great question. A few things to answer that: 1. If you were wanting to sell it as a set, you’d need to load them as a singular product onto Takealot (a combo set). So that if you had ‘6’ in stock it would actually be 6 combos. 2. Because of that, they would need to be packaged as a set somehow with a singular Item Code on the packaging for the warehouse to scan. 3. If you also wanted to sell them separate as an option you would need to load another product for each of them individually. So no, Takealot will not pack a combo for you unfortunately. And you would need a product image specifically for the set, to align with the Takealot’s picture guidelines.

Coming soon! I’m having to restock items this week or next (just waiting for packaging) and then will make the video.

I did that once too as I was still getting used to the new rule. You can’t unfortunately (at least not on TCG) so I just wrote in on the waybill by hand and it got accepted. Now I wouldn’t do that every time but if you did forget it’s worth a shot. Otherwise, if you haven’t loaded the waybill number into takealot yet, then you can just cancel shipment on TCG and create a new one and enter PO on that one.

Great point! Yes especially with all their options, haha. Will put that in the list for sure.

There’s a few great articles online if you just searched “about SKU and how to make them”. But essentially they’re just Stock Keeping Units and you can create them however you like and only if you need them as they’re unique to each business, unlike barcodes.

Make sure they’re buyable (pricing is set on your “manage my offers” page and try promote them (product depending) once you see the stock is there. Otherwise just have to wait to see if they sell. Once stock is there, it’s a passive process until items start to sell.

Something similar has happened to me. Depending on your account healthy, they may block you from sending stock for a while, but if it wasn’t your fault you can just email them to explain and they usually unblock your account straight away (after review). I had a delivery rejected and returned but it wasn’t my fault as the delivery/PO sticker was ripped off in transit. They blocked me, but once I got the delivery back and saw that it was the Courier I just emailed them and my account was opened the same day.

I thought about it for so long (2 years) before registering and wish I would’ve got started sooner!

I’m not entirely sure what you’re asking, but you need to send an average of 60-70% of your stock to Jhb DC and 30-40% to Cpt DC. If Cpt runs out of stock, and you have stock in Jhb, they will item on purchase from Jhb to Cpt DC then to Customer and you’ll pay a slightly higher delivery fee than usual for the transfer. 😊

Thank you for the quick replay

@@cutievaishnavi5680 You're welcome :) Hope it helped!

@@MauricePieters if I’m not mistaken, when you sign up they give you a unique login to the booking platform.

Hi Romero I've only received the login details this morning Thank you 🙏

@@MauricePieters ah glad they came through!

@Romero_Meyer I am currently doing the Booking Delivery, but I am unable to add the selected shipment. There is an error about an ASNS to be created

@@MauricePieters did you follow the steps in the exact order in the video? If you’re on the sellers portal and go to your shipment you created, and it’s marked as confirmed. From there you just click the little icon that says ‘book delivery’ and it should link the shipment automatically.

@@nigelpadayachee5333 hey! I’m using the Epson L1250 now but any printer will do the trick 😉

@@Romero_Meyer thanks brother and the label maker? I saw a few cheapies on Temu, are they worth it?

@@grahampetersen4826 hi Graham Yes, the goal for this video was just to help people to get their stock to takealot, which can be confusing for the first few times. I didn’t want to drift into details on what we’re selling, sourcing, etc. those will be in future videos to keen things concise for everyone :D

@@Romero_Meyer thanks man I’ll hang on for the next video 🙏🏻🙏🏻

@@MuofheKhosa you can DM me on Instagram. 😊
