Overtime, many sellers find that catalog management on Amazon is one of the most underrated topics in this business. What is in some of the fields (that you might not even know about) can have a huge effect on how the algorithm understands your listing. This in turn can have a major effect on your ranking, and can make a difference if Amazon suspends a listing because the algorithm suddenly thinks the product is in a category with heightened compliance requirements. And as you grow, it can become tedious making changes to listings in Manage Inventory when bulk sheets can make the process quicker (once you know how to use them). That is why I am excited to bring on Vanessa Hung to talk about how you can keep a clean catalog and some tips for using bulk files.
