Sell on every marketplace. Skip the busywork. Sell on every marketplace. Skip the hassle.

Ideally, yes, and that’s exactly the problem. Each marketplace has its own listing standards, ad auction, return policy and penalty system, and they change often. Get it wrong and you don’t get a warning, you get a suppressed listing, a lost buy box, or a fee. AFS runs all of this daily across every brand we manage, so those lessons are already paid for.

Best case, poor visibility. Worst case, a suspended listing, a compliance strike, or stock that can’t be found in search at all. Fixing a bad listing after the fact costs more time than building it right the first time, which is the whole job of our listing team.

Beyond the ad spend itself, it costs the hours spent learning which placements convert and which just burn budget, usually discovered by spending on the ones that don’t work. AFS runs pricing, promotions and advertising as part of the standard fulfillment service, at no additional fee, using patterns we’ve already tested across 20+ brands.

Because listing, advertising and catalogue upkeep are ongoing work, most 3PLs bill them as a separate line item on top of storage and delivery. We don’t. It’s built into the fulfillment fee. One cost, no surprise invoice for the parts of the job that actually move sales.

Unsorted or slow-processed returns tie up stock that should be back on shelf and selling. A returned item sitting in the wrong pile for two weeks is lost revenue, not just admin. We run returns through a dedicated facility so they’re sorted into resell, refurbish, write-off or return to supplier, fast.

You can, but the account most likely to slip is the one you’re not watching closely, and cross-marketplace consistency in pricing, stock and messaging is where a lot of brands lose control. Running all of it through one team keeps every channel aligned instead of drifting apart.

Most brands find out through mistakes, a penalty here, an underperforming ad campaign there, over the course of a year or more. We’ve already made those mistakes at scale, across dozens of brands, so you get the result without paying to relearn it. You’re partnering with 7 years of online learnings with AFS.

We work with brands at different volumes, from a single SKU line to a full catalogue. The value of outsourcing scales with you: the smaller the internal team, the more the “school fees” argument holds.

Brand strategy, product decisions and pricing bands stay yours. We run the execution: listings, ads, warehousing, fulfillment and returns, inside the boundaries you set.
