Our StoryAbout The Academy
Built by a seller who figured it out the hard way, so you don't have to.
Meet Kip Roland
Founder, Live Selling Academy
A year ago, Kip was exactly where most new sellers find themselves — streaming to an empty room, selling items for less than he paid, and wondering if live selling was even worth it.
His first shows were brutal. Two or three viewers. Items going for pennies. He seriously considered quitting multiple times.
But he kept going. He studied what worked. He tested everything. He found mentors who'd already figured it out. And slowly, things started to click.
Within 10 months, Kip had done over $300,000 in sales on Whatnot.
Not because he's special. Not because he had a huge following. But because he figured out the system — which thumbnails get clicks, which times get viewers, which pricing strategies actually work, and how to scale without burning out.
The Live Selling Academy was born from a simple idea: no one should have to struggle for a year to learn what can be taught in weeks.
Today, Kip shows up every week to answer questions, lead raid trains, review thumbnails, and help members avoid every mistake he made. The community has grown to over 1,000 members, and the results speak for themselves.

What We Stand For
Real Results, Not Hype
Everything we teach is backed by real numbers and real experience. No inflated claims, no guru nonsense — just proven strategies that work.
Community First
We believe sellers grow faster together. The raid trains, Q&A calls, and community support aren't extras — they're the core of what makes this work.
Always Learning
Live selling evolves fast. We stay on top of platform changes, algorithm updates, and new strategies so our members always have the latest playbook.
Accessible to Everyone
At $20/month, we made this intentionally affordable. Everyone deserves access to the knowledge and community that can change their business.
More Than a Course — It's a Community
The Live Selling Academy isn't just another online course you'll buy and forget about. It's a living, breathing community of sellers who show up every week to support each other.
From weekly raid trains that bring real viewers to your shows, to bi-weekly Q&A calls where Kip answers your specific questions, to exclusive wholesale deals that can pay for your membership many times over — this is the support system that every live seller needs.
Whether you're selling sports cards, vintage clothing, electronics, beauty products, or anything else — the principles work across categories, and the community is here to help you succeed.
