Yes, some people consign with brokers. I don't know if the brokers are more successful than the owner would be in getting sales, honestly. You see the brokers posts on Alpaca Market daily, if the owners posted that way, I imagine they'd have as much success as the brokers. And they'd save the commission, which is generally 10-15% of the sales price.
Do you have a website or AN account? I use dot have the AN, but it honestly didn't make a single sale of my own animals or breedings. I did sell some fiber boys for my mom, though. Oh, wait I did get a sale from AN for one of my own fiber boys, too.Since my budget is very tight, I let the AN account lapse, and have noticed a LOT of other breeders are doing the same. It's just not a good deal, and they make so darned much money on all the banner ads, they really could lower the account fees.Even when I had the AN account active, any business except for those fiber boy sales came from posting on Alpaca Market.HeatherHeather ZelenyWhite Lotus AlpacasOregonHolistic Farm and Elite Fleece
