Whether you’re new to Poshmark or a long-time reseller, you know that sharing can help boost your sales. However, most resellers don’t have the first clue how to optimize their sharing to drive sales. We’re here to save you a lot of trial and error by going over the best times to share your closet to increase your exposure.

Best time to share on Poshmark

But first, let’s review why sharing on Poshmark is important.

How Sharing on Poshmark Helps You Sell More

Essentially, sharing your closet helps your items rank higher in Poshmark’s search engine because the default setting for Poshmark’s search results page is sorted by “Just Shared.”

When customers search for an item or brand on Poshmark, items that were most recently shared appear at the top of the search results. The closer your items are to the top of the search results, the more likely potential buyers will see them and want to purchase.

Since roughly 38 million items are shared on Poshmark every day, staying active on the platform is one of the most important things you can do to boost your sales. We recommend that you share your closet 3–4 times a day for the best results.

When are the best times to share your closet?

It’s not just enough to share your closet a few times per day. Ideally, you want to be self-sharing your items at peak times to maximize exposure.

Here are the best times to share your closet:

Early Morning

This time slot is particularly important because overnight your items will have fallen in the search results. Sharing your items first thing in the morning puts them back up at the top of the ‘Just Shared’ pile.

Most people browse the app in the morning before work. With that being said, running on Eastern Standard Time can give you an advantage because it is the earliest time zone in the US. When you share your closet at 8 AM EST, your items will also be shown to users from other timezones that browse Poshmark in the morning.

Lunchtime

Lunchtime is another popular time that customers peruse Poshmark. Although it’s not as critical as the morning time slot, it’s important to share your items in the early afternoon because it keeps your items ranking high in the search results.

If you’re looking to attract potential buyers while they’re browsing on their lunch breaks, try timing your self-shares according to the time zone you’re in:

EST: 2 PM — 5 PM

CT: 1 PM — 4 PM

PST: 12 PM — 3 PM

MT: 1 PM — 3 PM

These time slots ensure that you’re getting the most out of your afternoon shares across each time zone.

After Work

One of the most crucial times to share is between 4–8 PM because that’s typically when people are relaxing after work. This time slot is the “Poshmark rush hour” because it’s when users spend the most time scrolling through the listings.

As a general rule of thumb, west coast Poshers should share closer to 4 PM and east coast Poshers should share closer to 8 PM.

Additionally, this time slot is prime for community sharing. More Poshers are likely to share back when you share their items during the ‘after work’ time slot.

At Night

If you aren’t an early bird, the late-night sharing time slot could be for you. Fewer people are browsing at night, but there are also fewer sellers sharing. This means that there’s less competition for the top spot in the search results.

To get the most visibility at night, east coast residents should share as late as possible, around 11 PM or later. West coast inhabitants should share as early as possible, around 6–9 PM to catch bedtime app browsers.

Posh Parties

Timing your sharing during Posh Parties is another way to maximize exposure.

Posh Parties are virtual events hosted by Poshmark where users meet up on the app to shop and share. There are 4 Posh parties hosted daily at the following times:

Brand Party at 9 AM PST

Category Party at 12 PM PST

Department Party at 4 PM PST

Style Party at 7 PM PST.

Try to share your closet during or just before one of these parties for maximum visibility.

Daily sharing on Poshmark can feel like a huge time commitment. That’s where OkAlice comes in.
