So the past couple weeks i have been working on some sort of automation for my products for amazon.  It has been a long road and its finally getting there.

Im using a site called “Inventory Source”, they many options for automation.  The one i wanted was of course Amazon Inventory Automation (qty/price updates).

Every morning their system updates my inventory on amazon with the instock quantity as well as any price changes that i make.  They also offer the option of adding new items to amazon everytime my drop shipper adds new items to their inventory. But i have chosen to not use that function becasue of the way amazon’s item system works, they use upc/asin and match those up with your product. Problem is that many manufactors our there use dubplicate UPC’s and thefore if you get a item in your inventory that is the same upc as something else then you have a mess on your hands when a order comes through for it.

I’m still in the process of getting the actual updates to happen every morning, they seem to be a bit slow on their end, not sure if its low staff or they just have alot of clients.  But im excited to get it up and running so that i can start manually adding more items and getting the popular stuff on there.

So im hoping over the next couple days i can get this all worked out and running well, ill keep things updated.
