This Week’s Lineup

  • The MBS Chrome Extension
  • Facebook Shops
  • Prime Day
  • MBS In The News
  • Humor & Quote

Hello & Welcome

Like most of you we’ve been hunkered down over the last few months, but we’ve also been busy. In the lab, if you will, the development lab, putting the finishing touches on several great new tools that we’ll be announcing over the coming weeks.

Let’s just say it’s an exciting time to be with ManageByStats.

The primary areas these new tools will cover are:

  • Inventory
  • PPC
  • Notifications

Along with them a few upgrades are also coming down the pike, made possible by Amazon’s new API.

Have a great week, and watch for announcements as we began to roll these enhancements off the line.

 

TIPS & NEW STUFF

Something we haven’t talked about in a while; a fantastic resource, available for use with your ManageByStats — and something you should have running:

The MBS Chrome Extension

The Extension is free, and can be used to gather Review and Feedback info, as well as for updating graphs and other data. (An extension is a small application that runs right in the Google Chrome browser, and is a convenient way to add robust features seamlessly to web-based services.) The MBS Extension runs in the Google Chrome browser.

The Extension lets you:

  • Update graph data
  • Update order & transaction data
  • Update reviews & feedback
  • Download missing products

To get the MBS Chrome Extension go here (while in Google Chrome):

MBS Chrome Extension

Click to Add to Chrome. (Note, if you’ve already added the extension it will show “Remove from Chrome”.)

Learn more about the Chrome Extension in the MBS Knowledge Base.

SELLER INSIGHT

Facebook Shops, which is free, will let businesses set up product listings on their Facebook Page, Instagram profile, Stories or in ads, the company has announced. In the future, Facebook Shops will also allow businesses to sell products to customers through the chat features of WhatsApp, Messenger and Instagram Direct. They’ll also be able to tag products during Facebook and Instagram livestreams, so customers can click on the tags and be taken to a product ordering page. 

The company has previously let businesses list products on Facebook and Instagram, but Facebook Shops lets them upload their catalogs once to make them accessible across Facebook’s various apps …
