# Paragn Network member stories: community milestones

A first car and a first year in business. Read milestones members shared in Paragn’s public channel, in their own words and with context.

What is the Paragn community like beyond the alerts? These two member stories share a first car and a first year in business with a friend. Each has a date, a short extract and a link to the original post.

These posts were shared in Paragn's **public milestone channel**. They are individual, member-reported experiences, not audited accounts or a measure of what a typical member earns. We have kept the words below short and linked to the original posts for context.

The source posts are in Discord. You may need to sign in and join the [free Paragn community](/blog/free-uk-reselling-discord) to open them. This page keeps the context available before you decide whether to join.

## A first car

**Shared on 12 September 2026**

> Just got my first car

The member thanked Luke and the team, describing how their reselling had developed over their time in the community. The milestone they chose to share was a purchase that mattered to them personally.

In the original post, they look back on several years in the community. Their message is a thank-you to the people who have been part of that progress.

## A first year in business together

**Shared on 8 August 2026**

> Today marks 1 year running a LTD VAT Registered company with my best mate.

The member described improvements in their systems, efficiency and cash flow. They reported nearly 7,500 items sold across their main selling platforms, alongside additional business-to-business sales.

That figure is a reported item count, not revenue or profit. The post also says they had been reselling since 2019, so this is not a beginner's first-year result. It does not separate the contribution of each service they used.
