Simplifying Amazon Marketplace Shipments

Businesses selling large volumes of products on Amazon Marketplace often face logistical challenges that standard tools can’t effectively address. At Simcoe Digital, we recently partnered with a client who struggled to efficiently sort and track their product shipments. Existing marketplace tools were either overly complex, prohibitively expensive, or came with steep learning curves, making them unsuitable for the client’s specific needs.

The Challenge

Our client previously relied on manually writing down items placed in each shipping box. This manual process frequently resulted in:

  • Inaccurate inventory records

  • Errors and inconsistencies in shipments

  • Unexpected fees from Amazon Marketplace due to shipment mistakes

Our Custom Solution

Understanding their unique requirements, Simcoe Digital developed a customized internal tool specifically tailored for ease-of-use and efficiency. Key features of our solution included:

  • Barcode Scanner Integration: Employees now use barcode scanners to quickly and accurately log products into boxes, eliminating manual entry.

  • Simple, User-Friendly Interface: The intuitive design minimized the learning curve, ensuring employees could start using it immediately without extensive training.

  • Real-Time Shipment Tracking: Boxes can easily be added, removed, or edited, keeping shipments accurate and organized.

  • Inventory Accuracy: Real-time updates reduced inventory errors and prevented costly discrepancies.

Results

Since implementing our custom barcode scanning tool, our client has experienced:

  • Significant reduction in Amazon Marketplace penalty charges due to shipment accuracy

  • Improved operational efficiency, saving time previously spent manually tracking products

  • Enhanced inventory management with increased accuracy and reliability

By tailoring the solution directly to our client’s specific needs, we’ve transformed their shipment processes into a streamlined, error-free operation.
