Shopfront Team
Introduction: Why Multi-Channel Selling is the Future for Australian Resellers
In 2025, successful resellers aren't just selling on one platform—they're maximising their reach across multiple marketplaces to capture every possible sale. Multi-channel selling has evolved from a nice-to-have strategy to an essential business practice for Australian resellers looking to scale their operations and increase revenue.
Gone are the days when listing on eBay alone was sufficient. Today's savvy sellers are leveraging the unique audiences and features of platforms like Depop, Grailed, Facebook Marketplace, Poshmark, and emerging Australian marketplaces to create diverse revenue streams and reduce platform dependency.
This comprehensive guide will walk you through everything you need to know about multi-channel selling in 2025, specifically tailored for Australian resellers who want to build sustainable, profitable businesses.
Chapter 1: Understanding Multi-Channel Selling in the Australian Market
What is Multi-Channel Selling?
Multi-channel selling, also known as crosslisting, is the practice of listing your products across multiple online marketplaces simultaneously. Instead of putting all your eggs in one basket, you diversify your presence to capture different customer segments and maximise your sales potential.
The Australian E-commerce Landscape in 2025
Australia's e-commerce market has seen explosive growth, with online sales reaching $63.6 billion in 2024 and projected to grow another 15% in 2025. This growth has created opportunities across multiple platforms:
- **eBay Australia**: Still the largest marketplace with 10+ million active users
- **Facebook Marketplace**: Rapidly growing with 19 million Australian users
- **Depop**: Dominates the Gen Z fashion resale market
- **Grailed**: Premium menswear marketplace growing 40% year-over-year
- **Gumtree**: Local marketplace integration with eBay
- **Shopify**: Direct-to-consumer opportunities
Why Australian Sellers Need Multi-Channel Strategies
1. Risk Diversification Platform policy changes, algorithm updates, or suspension risks make single-platform dependence dangerous. Multi-channel selling provides stability and continuity.
2. Audience Segmentation Different platforms attract different demographics:
- Depop: 18-26 year olds seeking trendy fashion
- eBay: 25-55 year olds looking for deals and variety
- Grailed: Fashion-conscious men willing to pay premium prices
- Facebook Marketplace: Local buyers preferring pickup options
3. Pricing Optimisation You can test different price points across platforms to find optimal pricing for each audience segment.
4. Increased Visibility More listings = more eyeballs = more sales opportunities. Simple mathematics that scales your business.

Chapter 9: Frequently Asked Questions
Getting Started Questions
Q: How much money do I need to start multi-channel selling? A: You can start with as little as $500-1,000 for initial inventory. Focus on items you understand well and can source affordably. Many successful sellers started with items from their own wardrobe or household.
Q: Which platform should I start with first? A: eBay is generally recommended for beginners due to its large audience and established systems. Once comfortable, expand to Depop for fashion items or Facebook Marketplace for local sales.
Q: Do I need an ABN to sell online in Australia? A: Not required for casual selling, but recommended if you plan to earn significant income. You'll need an ABN for GST registration (required if turnover exceeds $75,000).
Q: How do I handle returns across multiple platforms? A: Create standardized return policies adapted to each platform's requirements. Use tracking for all shipments and keep detailed records. Most platforms favour buyers in disputes, so excellent customer service is crucial.
Technical Questions
Q: How do I prevent selling the same item twice across platforms? A: Use inventory management tools like Shopfront, or maintain manual spreadsheets with real-time updates. Remove listings immediately when an item sells on any platform.
Q: What's the best way to handle international shipping? A: Start with domestic shipping only. Once established, use Australia Post's international services or third-party shipping providers. Always use tracking and insurance for valuable items.
Q: How do I optimise my listings for search algorithms? A: Use relevant keywords in titles, fill out all available fields, maintain good seller metrics, use high-quality photos, and price competitively. Each platform has slightly different algorithm preferences.
Business Strategy Questions
Q: Should I specialize in one product category or diversify? A: Start with one category you know well, then diversify gradually. Specialization allows you to build expertise and reputation, while diversification reduces risk.
Q: How do I compete with overseas sellers offering lower prices? A: Focus on faster shipping, better customer service, local market knowledge, and authenticity guarantees. Highlight your Australian location and quick delivery times.
Q: When should I consider hiring help or automating processes? A: Consider automation when manually managing platforms takes more than 2-3 hours daily. Hire help when you're consistently earning $5,000+ monthly and can maintain profitability.
Legal and Tax Questions
Q: What records do I need to keep for tax purposes? A: Keep detailed records of all income, expenses, inventory purchases, platform fees, shipping costs, and business-related expenses. Use accounting software for accuracy.
Q: Do I need to charge GST on my sales? A: Only if your annual turnover exceeds $75,000. Once registered for GST, you must charge 10% on all applicable sales and remit quarterly to the ATO.
Q: What insurance do I need as an online seller? A: Consider public liability insurance, professional indemnity insurance, and coverage for your inventory. Some platforms provide limited seller protection.
Platform-Specific Questions
Q: Why are my Depop listings not getting views? A: Depop prioritizes active users. Post regularly, engage with other users, use trending hashtags, post during peak hours (6-8pm AEST), and maintain fresh content.
Q: How do I increase my eBay seller rating quickly? A: Provide excellent customer service, ship quickly, communicate proactively, resolve issues promptly, and ask satisfied customers to leave feedback. Start with lower-value items to build feedback safely.
Q: What's the best time to list on each platform? A: eBay: Sunday evenings for auction-style listings, any time for Buy It Now. Depop: Weekday evenings and weekends. Facebook Marketplace: Evenings and weekends when people browse casually.
Advanced Strategy Questions
Q: How do I scale beyond $10,000 monthly in sales? A: Focus on automation tools, hire virtual assistants, develop wholesale relationships, create multiple revenue streams, and consider private labeling or building your own brand.
Q: Should I create my own website in addition to marketplaces? A: Yes, for long-term brand building and customer relationship development. Use platforms like Shopify to create a professional presence and reduce platform dependency.
Q: How do I stay competitive as more sellers enter the market? A: Continuously improve your processes, stay updated on platform changes, develop unique sourcing methods, build strong customer relationships, and consider specializing in niche markets.
