EcomsellerTool

Marketplace tools for sellers who run several channels

EcomsellerTool is a software development team that builds custom tools for ecommerce sellers. The team says it has worked since 2017 and now describes itself as an AI-first growth accelerator. The tools operate within each brand's own marketplace accounts, which leaves inventory, seller accounts, data and code in the brand's hands. Its customers are brand owners and sellers who trade on more than twenty online marketplaces.

Connections to Amazon, eBay, Walmart and Shopify

The firm's marketplace integrations connect a seller's catalogue to the platforms it sells on. The developers have worked with Amazon's selling interface, eBay, Walmart, Shopify and other channels, and each connection follows that platform's own rules. The connections let a seller list and update products, handle orders and pull the data a business needs without copying it by hand between systems.

Automation for large product ranges

The automation tools handle work that becomes impractical at scale, such as listing and managing large numbers of products. A past example is a book-listing tool that lists and handles very large numbers of books on Amazon, and provides analytics to both the user and an administrator on how the books are managed.

Amazon advertising and account monitoring

The firm also builds Amazon advertising links, which connect the automation of ads to the orders and listings the seller already manages. Another example is a web-based account monitoring application that tracks a seller's Amazon account throughout the day, so the seller can manage it comprehensively rather than checking it manually.

Operational diagnostics across inventory, ads and purchasing

The diagnostic service looks for gaps between a brand's inventory, its advertising and its purchasing decisions. The firm's report sets out the evidence, the likely impact and a suggested next action in one place. The firm says the aim is to show where stock is tied up, where advertising is pushing products that need to move, and where a purchase order may be unnecessary because stock is already on its way.

Software as a service for resale

A tool written for one seller can later be sold to others as a software service. The firm describes this as a route for a brand to turn its own internal system into a product, and it presents the ability to run the tool in-house or to sell it on as one of the things it can deliver.

How projects are run

The firm begins with a discussion of the client's current selling process and requirements, then develops wireframes and a plan for the scope of work, prioritised as agreed with the client. Development follows, with security checks before the code moves from the development server to production. New requirements go through the same cycle, which the firm describes as an agile method.
