Net Margin

Profit as a percentage of revenue, after all costs: stock purchase, platform fees, shipping, and packaging. Net margin = (sale price - all costs) / sale price x 100. A healthy reselling net margin is typically 30–50%. Below 20% after all costs, the activity may not justify the time investment. Calculate per item to identify which categories are worth continuing and which to exit.
