What sellers should know.
This page is written for ecommerce teams that need clear decisions, not surface-level definitions.
Catalog uploads should be tested with a smaller SKU set before scaling the full portfolio.
Before ads, sellers should confirm delivery model, stock cover, return policy, content quality and contribution margin.
The first 30 days should focus on listing hygiene, account health, early reviews, pricing validation and stock stability.
