Poshmark Hopes to Spark Joy With Marie Kondo This Spring

Spring is here, so ecommerce platform Poshmark has teamed up with tidying expert Marie Kondo on a series of 15-second ads that encourage consumers to let go of items that no longer bring them joy. “By letting go of items with gratitude, you are providing a meaningful opportunity for someone else to experience the joy you once felt,” Kondo added in a statement. “Poshmark is the expert in finding these items a new home and I hope I can help their users further appreciate the relationship they have with their belongings.”
