PRACTICAL GUIDE · ONLINE SELLERS
Use seller facts
to create better starting drafts.
AI can help organize product information and prepare routine drafts. A useful process keeps evidence, review and seller decisions close to the output.

1. Start with a repeated admin task.
Choose a task such as organizing product facts, preparing a listing draft, drafting an answer from an approved policy, or turning a consistent export into a reviewed checklist. Use one product type or question pattern first.
Keep the original source alongside the result. A neatly formatted summary is not proof that a specification, stock count or calculation is correct.
2. Separate known and missing information.
For a product draft, list verified identifiers, condition, components, specifications and measurements. Ask for missing fields to be marked, not invented. Do not infer a brand, compatibility, certification or warranty from an incomplete description.
Example instruction: “Use only the facts below to prepare a draft. Flag missing details in a separate checklist. Do not add performance, compatibility, warranty or safety claims.”
3. Review policies and commitments.
For a customer-service draft, use the current policy and the relevant order facts. Check whether the reply promises a refund, replacement, delivery date or exception. The person authorized to decide should review those commitments.
Marketplace requirements can change. Check the current requirements for the item and the platform before publishing. A draft workflow does not establish a supported connection with your marketplace account.
4. Measure quality alongside effort.
Compare the time needed to prepare and check a draft with the current method. Count factual corrections, missing fields and cases that still require manual work. Keep pricing, purchasing, refunds and financial decisions with the seller.
Once one task is repeatable, document the source files, review checklist and exceptions before adding another. Russ brings e-commerce experience since 1996 and Amazon FBA experience since 2014 to these practical workflow conversations.
