Tools to import/manage listings and inventory across multiple selling platforms

[vip-marketplace]

Hey guys!

Does anyone here use a software to import and manage listings and inventory levels across multiple selling channels?

I am now on 4 different platforms. Creating listings on each of them is extremely time consuming. Also, having to update my inventory daily is also such a pita...

Is there a tool that could help me doing these tasks?

There are more than a few........some are pretty costly.......

We use the basic 6 Bit.......but there are others.......just google for them.

Yeah I have seen a few using Google and according to their own websites they're great and all but I can't seem to find any reliable feedback / review on any of them.

So I though I would ask here for recommendations from sellers who are actually using them.

I can't seem to find anything on Google about "basic 6 bit" or "6 bit"... could you provide a link or more info?

EDIT: Found it! They don't seem to support Walmart however 😞

It's SixBit

I don't use it for multi-channel so I can use the lower cost edition. The multi-channel is quite expensive but works well for many sellers who use it for eBay/Amazon/etsy.

I've been a user of SixBit in it's various incarnations for 20 years (Auction Assistant, Seller Assistant, Blackthorne and SixBit since 2012.

There are quite a few multi-channel tools out there, all are expensive but certainly justifiable if you are doing enough business. You could have a look at Channel Advisor.

Not software, but I write and keep all my descriptions (with HTML coding) and pictures in desktop files.

And every listing has an inventory number that is both on the item and used on every site.

After that, when something sells, we search the other sites for the inventory number and delete that listing.

It helps that our products are unique. (I sell sewing patterns, books, and on other IDs stamps, other philatelic items and postcards.  So we don't have the problem of sellers who have mass produced products.

I don't sell nearly enough to use Channel Advisor sadly...

Apparently some people use Shopify to do this.

They import their Amazon.CA listings into Shopify and from there are able to push it to other platforms.

I'll have to investigate this.

I've found this newer offering SkuTrue.com to be amazing. But its currently limited from Amazon to eBay.
