Started with a free couch.
Turned into a side income he built from the curb.

Mike McCabe has spent his career in TV weather. He's a weather anchor at a local CBS station, a job he loves, in a smaller market he chose so he could put family first. Reselling gave him something he'd never had before: a second income he built himself.

He found couch flipping through a video on TikTok and sat on the idea for about three months. Then, driving to the grocery store on a cold January day, he passed a couch on the curb with a cardboard sign that said FREE. He took it as his sign. He didn't own an extractor or know how to tie a load down properly. He loaded it into his truck anyway, cleaned it up in his garage, and sold it the next morning for $200 plus $25 for delivery.

He figured it was a fluke, so he did it again. By February he'd flipped about eight pieces. His first year of flipping furniture brought in roughly $50,000 in sales, and he's on pace for about $60,000 this year, all while keeping his full-time job. His shift starts in the afternoon, so couches get his mornings and weekends.

Along the way, people started asking him how. A neighbor who used to joke that his couches belonged at the dump is now flipping couches himself. Beginners send Mike photos of a torn cushion or a sectional they aren't sure about, and he helps them work out the next move.

That's what he brings to coaching: the practical steps, from finding the piece to cleaning it, photographing it, and pricing it to sell, plus the belief that you can do this too. You don't need a warehouse or a big inventory budget. If you don't have a truck, Mike will tell you to rent one for a weekend and go get your first piece.

“Sometimes you don't have to know the how, you just have to go … and the rest will reveal itself along the way.”

Practical. Inspiring.
Tactical.

Verified 5-star reviews from Mike's Reseller Mastermind couch-flipping workshop.

“Mike’s workshop was excellent and about much more than couches! Yes he goes into the details, equipment, how to list, what to list, what to say to people, etc… and that is all gold. The “much more” that I wasn’t expecting was his mindset and approach. This is practical and inspiring and tactical.”

“It gave me the tools and confidence that I can make this business successful. … The most useful portion was the exact steps that were taking to make successful sales on FB marketplace. I quickly acquired couches to flip this weekend in order to fund my future purchases of pallets.”
