For Amazon resellers, time is the scarcest resource. Scanning products, building buy lists, managing SKUs, creating offers, printing labels, calculating COGS, and assembling FBA shipments often happens across three—or ten—different tools.
The result?
A workflow full of copy-pasting, duplicated steps, manual errors, and unnecessary admin work.
This is the problem sellerboard’s Reseller Workflow is designed to solve:
a connected, end-to-end system that takes resellers from barcode scan → buy list → offer creation → labeling → FBA shipment, all in one platform.
Below is a practical breakdown of how an integrated process removes hours of manual work and makes sourcing and shipping significantly faster.
Why Resellers Lose So Much Time: The Real Bottlenecks
Even experienced sellers waste time in hidden places. The biggest bottlenecks tend to be:
1. Scanning in one app, managing buy lists in another
Most resellers scan products on the go, but then manually rebuild those lists in spreadsheets or listing tools later.
2. Re-creating offers you already listed
If you buy the same products repeatedly, you’re often rebuilding SKUs, conditions, suppliers, and COGS from scratch.
3. Managing COGS and profit tracking manually
Without automatic linking between sourcing and inventory, every batch becomes a spreadsheet exercise.
4. Switching between tools for labels, SKUs, and shipments
Fragmented tool stacks force resellers to re-enter the same data multiple times.
An integrated workflow eliminates all of these friction points at once.
What an Integrated Reseller Workflow Looks Like
The goal is simple:
You should only touch each piece of data once.
Here’s how sellerboard structures the process:
1. Scan Products → Build a Buy List (Mobile)
Most sourcing starts in-store or at a warehouse. In sellerboard’s mobile app, every scan automatically becomes part of a buy list.
Why this matters:
No more rebuilding lists later or manually entering ASINs. Your list is already structured for the next steps — including supplier, cost, marketplace, and notes.
2. Turn Your Buy List Into Offers (No Re-Entry Needed)
Once you approve a buy list, you can instantly create offers from it.
- Reuse existing SKU templates
- Relist products you’ve sold before in seconds
- Carry over supplier and cost details automatically
Outcome: Less admin, fewer errors, faster listing.
3. Generate Labels and Build FBA Shipments Automatically
No spreadsheets. No exports. No copy/paste.
Sellerboard connects your offers directly to:
- FNSKU label generation
- Batch creation
- Shipment creation
- Prep details and quantities
- Cost and profit linking
Everything stays in sync — and you never rebuild the same info twice.
4. Automatic COGS and Profit Tracking for Every Batch
This is where resellers usually lose the most time.
In an integrated workflow:
- COGS follows the product from sourcing → listing → sale
- Profit is tracked automatically per batch, SKU, or shipment
- You don’t need to “update” anything manually later
If you resell in volume, this alone can remove hours of bookkeeping every week.
How Much Time Does This Actually Save?
Based on feedback from active resellers:
- A manual workflow averages 2–4 hours per sourcing batch
- With an integrated workflow, that drops to 30–60 minutes
That’s not exaggeration — it’s simply the result of removing repetitive steps.
If you source multiple batches per week, the time savings compound quickly.
Why Streamlining Your Workflow Matters Even for Small Sellers
Efficiency isn’t only about speed. A connected workflow also helps a reseller:
- Avoid errors that cause stranded inventory
- Maintain consistent SKUs and labeling
- Track profitability more accurately
- Scale without adding more tools or admin time
- Improve decision-making (thanks to clean, linked data)
In short:
It’s easier to grow when you’re not buried in spreadsheets.
How to Get Started (Without Changing Your Entire Process Overnight)
If your workflow is currently fragmented, you don’t need to switch everything at once.
Start with the step that offers the biggest immediate improvement:
Step 1: On your next sourcing trip, scan products inside sellerboard.
That’s it. Just build your buy list inside the app.
From there:
- Creating offers becomes a single tap
- Labels generate themselves
- Batches stay linked
- Shipments build faster
- COGS flows automatically
One step leads naturally into the next — the workflow is designed that way.
