Case study

Listing Velocity

A D2C brand went from 4 product listings a week to 40, with the same one person.

Listing Velocity

The case study

The brand

A ₹3Cr D2C brand selling on Amazon, Flipkart and Shopify. One person owned listings, and new SKUs sat in a spreadsheet for weeks.

The situation

Every listing was 2 to 3 hours by hand: title, description, bullets, keywords, marketplace variants and alt text. So 4 went live a week while dozens waited.

The catalog, the thing customers actually search, stayed thin. A competitor listed 40 a week and collected the long-tail searches this brand never appeared for.

What they did

  1. 1Fed the pipeline just SKU data and one product photo.
  2. 2AI drafted the title, description, bullets, keywords and Amazon/Flipkart variants in brand voice.
  3. 3The owner reviewed and approved each in about 12 minutes instead of 2 to 3 hours.
  4. 4Listing velocity went from 4 a week to 40, clearing the backlog in weeks.

The result, 6 months
