Oh my freaking goodness, guys. Sit down and listen to this shit. You are not gonna believe this. Oh my gosh. It is 7:32 in the a.m. I went to bed at 2 a.m. I got like I've been up since 6 30, so I got like four and a half hours of sleep. I have the following stats. You're just just stick with me. Last night I had a 13-hour show. Actually, I'll get you the exact minutes in a second. It was hold on, I'll I'll come right back with that. I just went through my followers because after my shows, I follow everybody who follows me. I got 454 new followers. I kept thinking it's gotta be done soon, and I kept counting because I wanted you guys to have the stats. And I was like 100, 102, and then I'm down to 300, 345, 454 new followers. I have never had that many followers in one freaking show. And now I'm going to my stats. I have 105 orders that need to go out, and I'll tell you more about this in a minute. 105 orders, 251 things, it says, which makes me believe that people canceled because we were over 300. So I will have to go in there in a little bit and look it out. Um, it says that my numbers, you know how it like gives you, where is it? My stats, you know how it says like, oh, it's up 249% in addition, like in your bottom right hand side in your seller's hub. I'm up 249% more. And then when I go to, I'm just pulling this up. My buzz spur, not not that buzz. Wait, hold on, just hold on, cancel. Here's my whatnot summary. My whatnot summary says I sold 320 items. I did nine giveaways. They were eye masks. Shipments were 103. And oh, I gotta tell you, I get you. I get why it's doing that now. I got it. Um, hold on, let me do this again. 320 items. The nine giveaways from were from nine raid trains. The shipments says it's gonna be 103, but guys, I think it might be more than that. That's 103 boxes, and I think maybe a couple people canceled because I think it was 105. I don't know. I'll have to go in and look at that in a little bit. The total sales was$3,514, and I received$14 in tips, and I had eighty-nine dollars in promotions. I don't know who those lovely people are, but right now I'm losing my ever-loving mind. I had two first-time buyer promotions. I don't even know what that is. Somebody's gotta help me. And I just it says I I don't know when this thing it didn't click,$454 new followers. And then the amount of viewers I had at a regular time, I think this is wrong because it says 149. I think maybe that's at my highest or something. I don't know what that is. Um, and the total bids for something. What is total bids for something? I gotta figure that out. It says 29. So um I don't know what that means. And then it says 30-day return and spend is 317.86%. Anybody know what that is? Return on spend? Here, let me click on it. It says revenue directly generated from promotions divided by your spend on promotions. Well, that's cool. So, I mean, I guess because$86 went to promotions, my sales went up. I don't know. I I don't know that, guys. Um, contribution spent$28. I don't know what that is either. Let me click on it. It says the total amount of money that was spent, blah, blah, blah. It's it's like, it looks like it's like, I don't know, um, is I don't know, Iranian or something writing in there. Your show and community boost remaining will be available during your next show. What? I'm gonna have$28 towards my next show. I don't know what that means, y'all, but that's cool. 459 impressions. I mean, anyways, the title of the show was What the Hell? She's crazy, free shipping. And I was only gonna go on for two hours, guys. Maybe two hours. I was literally shaking before I went on because I was scared to death. And I was like, what if it goes bad? What if a bunch of people come in? Because most of everything I sold, like the majority, was one dollar starts. So some people came in and bought one dollar worth of things and then they left. I don't understand it. I don't know if they were just trying to screw me over. I don't, I don't know. But obviously, if you buy something from me for a dollar, I make 54 cents on it. And to ship it, it's gonna cost more than that. So I'm like, really, why did you do that? I don't know. Usually I do handwritten thank yous, but this is 105 boxes right now, guys. 105 on my Instagram. You have to have a thousand followers. I should go check how many I'm at now because once you get to a thousand, you can do live videos again. I'm at 996 followers, guys. So I need you guys, four people to go to Carrie Kennedy71 on Instagram and follow me over there so I can make a video of this. I don't know how long the video can be. Somebody told me this, and I might be wrong. I have 996 followers. I need a thousand, I just need four people to go to K-A-R-R-I Kennedy71 on Instagram and follow me. Um, and then I'll try to do a video of this. Oh, oh, I was gonna get you the exact hours. Hold on, let me go figure the exact out time. It was it was a little shy of 13 hours because hold on. Oh, where do I find it? How do I find this? Um, hold on. Shows. Gosh, guys, hold on, I gotta figure it out. I'm tired. Um, let me go to this. Where is the time? I can't find the time. Basically, it was like 11 minutes or something less than 13 hours because some girl came in and we were telling them at the end, at the very end, the very end, I was like, my mod was posting it and everything. We weren't trying to be read any rules, we weren't trying to go against anything. We were just kindly saying, if you are new, I've been on almost 13 hours. I have five 105 boxes. Could you please the items I'm selling now, could they only go to people who have boxes? Because I didn't want to have more boxes and more orders. It was so bad, guys, that it went into the room I was in, into my hallway, down the hallway to my kitchen, down the hallway to my bedroom, into my living room, into my dining room. There's stuff on treadmills and dog crates and um couches, coffee tables, floors, tables. It's everywhere. It is everywhere. It is a freaking nightmare shipping packing thing. And on top of that, I have no help unless Sarah comes over today, my assistant, and I pay her$20 an hour. So my whole family is going to the river for a crawfish boil and jet skiing all weekend. And I'm here left with this. And you're like, well, why did you do that, Carrie? Well, honestly, people were coming in and buying. I had lots of people, I had 454 new followers. It was insane. It was insane. And I kept thinking, oh, I'll go, you know, for a couple hours once Sarah's gone. And it took me a while to figure out where their people's names were. So I was sitting there saying, okay, any new boxes, this is where I'm putting your box. I'm putting you in my left window to the right of my front door, or or my left window to the left of my front door. And then I would say, okay, you're on the fireplace. And that way, if they got a new order and I didn't know where they were, because there's guys, there's a hundred and five orders throughout my house, and they're in stacks and piles and boxes and by themselves and just everywhere. And I couldn't keep up with 105 orders. Like I their names are on it, but where where in the house to find it? So people I they would say, I'm on the dog crate, I'm in the hall, I'm on the bookcase on the bottom shelf, I'm behind you over to the corner. It was nuts. So yeah, and everything was fine. And I actually it just kept going though. I mean, we got to four hours and then we went to six hours. And oh, on top of all of this, I only peed twice, two times to pee in that long of time. I had like six bites of a salad before I went on. This was at 12, 1230 or 12, I guess 1230 or 1245 is when the show went on. It must have been 1230, something like that. 1230 or 1245. And so I only had a couple bites of salad and I drank three beers throughout. So the fact that I only ate that much, only peed twice, my throat is a mess. I'm pretty sure you can hear that. My back hurts, my legs hurt, my feet hurt, my throat hurts. And yeah, I've only had like, well, let's see. If I went to sleep at two and I woke up at 6:30, plus I got up in the middle of the night a little bit, was listening to podcasts. So I probably got about, well, here I can tell you, I've got a Fitbit. Let's we're just recorded this too. My Fitbit says, oh wow, I got three hours and 49 minutes of sleep. Oh my gosh, three hours and 49 minutes of sleep. Let's see how where does it take you to your sleep? Hold on. Oh, I'm trying to find it. Anyways, oh, oh, let's find out how many steps I had yesterday. And my steps yesterday were 7,135. Because I was basically standing the whole time, except when I had to go off and uh put the stuff down. So, anyways, that is it. There's my info. If you guys follow me on Instagram, maybe I can do a video. Um, but man, it was crazy. And I might do another update on how long it took me to pack and ship all this. Usually I get everything done within a day. And by the way, I had two shows on the 26th. So two shows on the 26th, and everything went out except two packages because my kids forgot to take them at the front door, and um I was in my show. So the whole hell house went to hell. The dishes are in the sink. I mean, because when mom's gone for 13 hours, one kid was mad at the other kid because he was on his TV. They they did mow the lawn um while I was in there, you know, and I think they might have straightened up the pool or whatever, but like the dog's water bowls had no water. It was crazy. I I after the show, I walked into the kitchen and I was like, oh man, there's it's just like, well, it's like two teenagers without their mom for 13 hours. It was it was a mess, and it was so crazy. And on top of all of this, Sarah was with me. My assistant was with me the first two hours. And after she left and I saw the boxes, I thought, oh, should I keep going? And I just never had any clue that this would be my longest um whatnot show. My show before this that was the longest on whatnot was eight hours and 20 minutes, and that was like over a year ago, easily over a year ago, and maybe a year and six months ago. And then on Poshmark, I did an 11-hour and 30-minute show. And um, so yeah, this is a record, especially for the fact that I talked the entire time, and I'm 54, guys. I'm no spring chicken. So, anyways, there's the the update. If you guys have any questions, you can always message me or comment. Um, did I tell you the dollar amount? I think I did. Uh, I hope I did say that somewhere in here. Let me do it one more time. It was$3,514. This scary thing, and everybody was guessing. They were like, I think it's at least$1,000 in shipping. And I was like, I'm scared. I am scared to death. How much? Oh, and that's the other thing. I gotta say this real quick. At first we were like, it'd be great to make four or five hundred bucks. Then it went to a thousand. Then everybody's like, go to two thousand. Then I went to three thousand. And they were like, Oh, what's the next goal? Let's go to four thousand. And I was like, Oh, hell no. And then we were also looking at the items sold. People were going up and clicking it, and they're like, You're at 200, let's go to 300. It was crazy, anyways. You guys, thank you so much for last night. Thank you for all you guys who came and supported, and especially the mods. I had the best mods in there. Coupon mom was in there, and um, I had Nikki and I had Malia. You guys, awesome sellers, awesome people, awesome friends. I love you guys so much. It was, I will remember this probably for the rest of my life. It was, it was crazy and it was fun, and it makes me almost want to do it again, to be quite honest. It makes me want to do it again. Oh, wait, it's saying I can post my I don't know. I I'll look at all the stuff stats and stuff later and I'll tell you about shipping later. Anyways, thank you, thank you, thank you, especially to my mods, my buyers, the people who rated me, the people who promoted. I just cannot say enough. Thank you, thank you, thank you, guys. I am I am bold over and excited. Oh, and thank you for the 454 new followers. I'm at like almost 1,300. I mean 13,500. I mean, I'm gonna get there. I'm gonna get there. Not that it matters. I don't think followers matter as much as buyers, but it's still fun. Anyways, thanks so much, guys. We'll talk to you later. I hope you're having a great day. Please say some prayers for me today. I, oh my gosh, I'm going on less than four hours of sleep. I think the adrenaline is still in my body. All right, take care, have a beautiful day, have fun shopping and selling on whatnot. Bye bye, guys.
