## What is a product listing virtual assistant?

A product listing virtual assistant is a remote assistant who creates and maintains product pages and catalog data for an online store or marketplace seller: writing titles, descriptions and bullet points, setting categories and attributes, building variants, uploading and editing images, loading pricing and stock, and auditing existing listings for errors and suppressed items. At AssistBPO the assistant is an employee of the group who works inside the client's own Shopify, Seller Central, Etsy or eBay accounts.

## Deliverables and KPIs

AssistBPO reports 6 measures on the product listing desk: what lands on your desk, what we count, and how often you see the number.

| Deliverable | KPI we report | Cadence |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Listings created | SKUs live against the plan, zero errors on upload | Weekly |
| Listings fixed | Suppressed and incomplete items cleared | Daily, in the end-of-day report |
| Catalog accuracy | Price and attribute match across channels | Weekly audit |
| Images compliant | Main images meeting each marketplace's rules | Per listing |
| Content quality | Team lead score on a sample of listings | Monthly |
| Master catalog current | Sheet or PIM updated within one business day of changes | Daily |

KPIs are what we measure and report, agreed per engagement in the weekly review. Service-level commitments are set in your agreement, not on this page.

## How does the product listing desk work?

1. ### Match
A 20-minute discovery call on your channels, catalog size, data sources and launch calendar. Within 72 hours we propose a named listing assistant with hands-on history in your main platform, plus a trained backup who has worked the same admin.
2. ### Onboard
You add the assistant as a user in Shopify, Seller Central, Etsy, eBay or Walmart Seller Center with the permissions you choose, and share the master catalog, brand guide and image library. We audit the current listings, agree copy templates per channel and the fields the assistant can change without sign-off, and build the first ten listings for your approval.
3. ### Daily rhythm
The assistant opens with suppressed-listing and error alerts, then works the queue: new SKUs, fixes, image updates, price changes and bulk uploads, updating the master catalog as each item goes live. The end-of-day report lists listings created, fixed and waiting on you, such as missing photos or approvals.
4. ### Weekly review
Twenty minutes with the team lead: SKUs live, errors cleared, catalog audit findings and next week's launches. Monthly, the team lead scores a sample of listings on the QA scorecard for accuracy, completeness and marketplace policy.

## What are the terms on the product listing desk?

The card, the contract terms and the product listing desk's own numbers, in one place.

| Specification | What you get |
| --- | --- |
| Essential, 10 hours a week | $400 a month, 40 hours |
| Focus, 20 hours a week | $800 a month, 80 hours |

| Standard schedule | Dedicated listing assistant, 80 or 160 hours a month |
| Coverage | US Eastern to Pacific, UK and Canadian business hours from the group's two offices; Australian Eastern shifts available on request. |

These are rate-card starting points. What you pay depends on the hours, the desk and the coverage window, which is what the staffing plan sets. Rates improve as you add assistants. Your staffing plan states the rate for the number of seats you need. [The rate card](https://assistbpo.com/pricing/) carries the other currencies, the add-ons and the six things that move a plan off it.

## How much does product listing cost?

Plans start at $400 a month for 40 hours, at $10 an hour, and rates improve as you add assistants. Get a staffing plan within 1 business day.

### What moves the plan

1. Hours a week and whether the desk is dedicated or shared
2. Phones: live answering needs a receptionist profile and a backup
3. Coverage zone: business hours, after-hours, weekends or 24/7
4. Tools and access to set up
5. One person or a pod with a lead

### What the market publishes

Other providers' published ranges, by market, so you have something to hold this against. These are not AssistBPO prices.

Case study
### [E-commerce Brand Survives Peak Season Support](https://assistbpo.com/case-studies/ecommerce-support-peak/)

A direct-to-consumer brand selling on Shopify did most of its year in six weeks. The rest of the year two people cleared the queue comfortably. In peak season the same two people were answering chat, email, Instagram messages and returns at once, first response times stretched into days, and shipping-delay questions arrived faster than anyone could answer them. Temporary hires had never worked out, because training finished about the time the season did. AssistBPO built a peak-season pod on the support desk: named agents with a team lead, trained in October, live from the start of November and stood down in January. The pod worked inside the brand's own Gorgias help desk using macros written with the in-house team. Tickets were tagged by reason so the operations team could see which problems were worth fixing at the source.

## Frequently asked questions

### How much does a product listing virtual assistant cost?

Plans depend on hours, desks and coverage. Get a staffing plan within 1 business day. For orientation, managed offshore assistants run $640 to $2,400 a month full time and marketplace freelancers around $13 an hour on Upwork with higher turnover (Wishup and Cherry Assistant cost guides; Zedtreeo, 2026). AssistBPO prices a dedicated assistant per person for a block of hours, so a 300-SKU launch and a quiet maintenance month sit in the same plan.

### Which platforms do you list on?

Shopify and Shopify Plus, Amazon Seller Central and Vendor Central, Etsy, eBay, Walmart Marketplace, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, TikTok Shop and Google Merchant Center. The assistant works inside your own seller and store accounts under a user you create. Channel management tools such as Linnworks, ChannelAdvisor and Sellbrite are used where you already have them.

### Who writes the listing copy?

The assistant, from your product data, brand guide and each platform's rules, human-written with AI assistance and human editing. AI helps with first drafts and keyword variations; the assistant rewrites, checks every claim against your spec sheet and fits the copy to title limits and prohibited-word lists. You approve templates and the first batch, then most clients approve weekly.

### Can you fix suppressed or incomplete Amazon listings?

Yes. The assistant reviews the Listing Quality dashboard and suppressed-listing reports, fixes missing attributes, image violations and category errors, resolves variation issues and opens cases where a fix needs Amazon's help. Progress is tracked in the end-of-day report until each ASIN is buyable again.

### How do you handle images?

From your photo library, the assistant crops, resizes, removes backgrounds and orders images to each channel's rules, such as Amazon's white background and size minimums. Simple infographic and lifestyle overlays are made in Canva; new photography or heavy retouching goes to the graphic design assistant. Files are stored and named in your drive.

### How many listings can one assistant build?

For a standard product with copy, attributes and images, a dedicated assistant builds roughly 15 to 30 listings a day, or more with bulk templates and fewer for complex variants and A+ Content. We agree a realistic rate at onboarding from a sample batch and track it at the weekly review.

### Do you keep prices and stock in sync?

Yes, within the rules you set: scheduled price changes, sale windows and MAP compliance are loaded across channels, and stock levels are updated where you do not have an automatic sync. Ongoing stock control and reorder alerts sit with the inventory management assistant on the same desk, and the two often share one catalog sheet.

### Can you migrate our catalog to a new platform?

Yes, as a project block: export from the old platform, map fields and categories to the new schema, clean the data, rebuild variants and images, upload in batches with validation, and check every listing before the switch. A migration plan with dates is agreed at the start and progress is reported daily.
