憑藉美腳 英國女子網售二手鞋襪發家致富

After someone complemented her on the 'beauty' of her feet, Roxy Sykes, 33, realised that she could break her way into the unusual industry.

在聽到別人讚美她的腳後，33歲的羅克西·賽克斯意識到自己可以打破常規，開闢一個新行業。

The property-investor decided to set up an Instagram page to see how true the interest in her feet was, and after reaching over 10,000 followers in a month decided to listen to her 'fans'.

這位不動產投資者決定在Instagram上設立賬戶，來看看人們對她的腳到底有多感興趣。在短短的一個月她的粉絲就已過萬，隨後她決定順應“粉絲”的需求。

Roxy, from London, then started selling shoes and socks on her social media accounts for 20 pounds per pair of socks, and 200 pounds for shoes.

隨後，來自倫敦羅克西就開始利用社交媒體銷售鞋子和襪子，每雙襪子20英鎊，鞋子200英鎊。

Having been in the business for four years now, Roxy claims she can earn up to 8,000 pounds in a busy month.

現在，羅克西的生意已經做了四年，她聲稱生意好的時候一個月可以賺8000英鎊。

Roxy said: 'After being told by a colleague that I had beautiful feet, I was convinced to set up a social media account to show them off.'

羅克西表示：“自從同事告訴我說我的腳很漂亮後，我就決定在社交媒體上曬曬自己的腳。”

'But it wasn't until I started getting thousands of followers and messages about selling used items that I realised I could profit from it.'

“但是直到我開始收到成千上萬的關注和關於銷售自己的二手物品的信息後，我才意識到我可以通過我的腳去賺錢。”

'I didn't show my face or anything at first, so I knew people were just interested in me for my feet, so it didn't feel too personal.'

“因爲一開始我並沒有露過臉或身體的其他部位，所以我知道人們只是對我的腳感興趣，因此我覺得做這樣的事不會太涉及到私人問題。”

'But when I started selling I got a real buzz from it, and realised just how much I could make from selling shoes and socks from time to time.

“但當我開始在網上賣二手物品後，我馬上就產生了興奮感，因爲我意識到時不時地賣鞋和襪子竟然可以賺到不少錢。”

'I realised how much money I could truly make on my busiest month, where I saw over 8000 pounds come in just for videos, socks and shoes. Now I can never see myself stopping this -- however old I get my feet will always be able to make me money!'

“我意識到在最繁忙的一個月裏我可以賺多少錢，那個月憑藉視頻、襪子和鞋子我就進賬了超過8000英鎊。現在我停不下來了，因爲不管我有多老，我的腳總能給我賺錢！”
