Salary benchmarks
Our take
The re-sale market across everyday clothing, collectables and luxury is growing. One driving force of this is that people care more about sustainability and are therefore buying second-hand goods. This has resulted in a fast growing market with plenty of opportunity.
The experience on Depop is what you'd expect from platforms such as Instagram. The focus on social, creators and influencers has created a very high level of engagement.
Depop was quick to realise the value in power users and has focused efforts there (where people are generating up to $100,000 in annual income for themselves by selling items). The popularity of social platforms making individuals into entrepreneurs will likely attract interest from Instagram and Pinterest. This may pose a challenge for Depop as these competitors will be in a strong position to leverage their networks.
The company has been acquired by Etsy and is now focusing on strategic partnerships in several industries to keep market share flowing in.
