Unlocking the Data:
Our data collection process was meticulous and extensive, spanning from January 1, 2023 to July 31, 2023. During that time, we analyzed nearly 1000 qualifying brands sold through our platform.
Every day, we facilitate thousands of item sales for our clients in the secondhand space. This exposure gives us a unique view of e-commerce trends, sales numbers, and market profitability. With significant transaction data available to us, we can extract valuable insights. These insights are instrumental in driving your e-commerce business forward.
Identifying the Top Brands:
To provide you with the most relevant and valuable insights, we took several steps to refine our data:
High-Value Brands Only:
- Our shared data research only includes brands with an average price per item (PPI) over $25. This provides your organization with the highest value-driving opportunities in e-commerce.
Thorough Curation:
- Many categories in our research had robust data sets. For this reason, we excluded brands with fewer than 20 sales during the research period. In cases where there were fewer than 20 brands, we filtered the data to ensure it provided valuable insights to e-commerce teams. We marked these categories with an asterisk in our findings.
Ranking by Total Item Revenue:
- We based our brand rankings on Total Item Revenue. This provides a comprehensive view at brands generating the most significant profits. In the guide, we also provide key revenue stats displaying Items Sold and PPI for added context.
