As an entrepreneur, the pursuit of ways to improve your business can be never-ending (though hopefully you largely keep it simple with the LHS model). But especially if your goal is to scale, you need to automate certain processes and be as organized and efficient as possible.
Some people get help through team members or outsourcers, which are great. Another resource you can use is the Amazon Marketplace Appstore.
The Appstore includes a ton of different apps, or solutions as they’re often called, that serve a variety of purposes aimed at saving you time and energy and streamlining your business processes.
You can access the Amazon Marketplace Appstore using this link. Or, just click the Appstore tab inside your Seller Central account.
The Appstore has 13 categories of app solutions, and each category includes numerous apps for you to choose from. Some apps have several functions and will be found in multiple categories. Each app also comes with a star rating, although many haven’t been reviewed yet.
Here are the categories you’ll find in the Appstore:
- Listing
- Automated Pricing
- Inventory and Order Management
- Shipping Solutions
- Advertising
- Promotions
- Product Research and Scouting
- Feedback and Reviews
- Buyer/Seller Messaging
- Analytics and Reporting
- Accounting and Tax Remittance
- Ecommerce Solution Connectors
- Full-Service Solutions
To give you a better feel for the kinds of solutions you can find to grow your business, I decided to round up the highest-rated apps and provide a brief overview, including pricing information and links to where you can learn more.
NOTE: I haven’t necessarily tried all the apps on this list. I am simply reporting on those that are rated highly, not on those I personally endorse.
Also, as a word of caution for any apps that facilitate contacting customers to provide updates or ask for feedback, make sure that you adhere to Amazon’s policies, which you can review here and here. The last thing you want is to get in trouble with Amazon in the thick of the holiday season!
That said, let’s check out the list of highly-rated Marketplace apps.
