Product pricing can be a fickle beast. It is quite obviously one of the most important things to get right in eCommerce as it can quite literally be the difference between keeping the lights on or packing up and going home.
We often find online retailers doing the manual task of updating their product pricing manually in some way. Whether it be clicking through each product and updating them based on their knowledge of what a good price would be or by applying some carefully thought-out mathematical function to each via a spreadsheet. This can be a tedious task which can often result in human error. Thankfully, this does not have to be the case.
Last year, the business owners of Steadliving reached out to us. They explained that a significant portion of their business relied on pulling and pushing data from their suppliers. This included sync stock quantities, product pricing and sending orders to their suppliers.
As their business grew, they realised this was not sustainable. Fortunately, they reached out to us and we were able to create some infrastructure to handle this for them. Our automation functions with no need for user input.
In addition to this, we have also been able to help them stay a cut above the others by implementing a pricing algorithm that helps them stay very price competitive.
