As a small business owner your time is limited because you are the jack-of-all-trades. Between managing finances, talking to customers, crafting new products, and relisting your Etsy products manually, you always have something to work on. Staying top of your entire business by yourself is difficult, which is why you need all the help you can get — especially staying on top of renewing your Etsy listings.

When you relist an Etsy listing, not only are you making it available for a new customer to buy, but you are also putting it back on the top of the list of products. This gives you increased marketing visibility and helps to make even more sales. When you renew a listing on Etsy, your product gets listed under the ‘newly listed’  category.  Your product is bumped to the top of the first page of Etsy, and for a short period of time you’re getting maximum visibility. This makes it important to relist your Etsy products at the right time and frequency.

Bizelo is proud to announce that we’ve added automatic relisting to our capabilities. If you have an Etsy store, simply go to your Etsy store settings and check the “Automatically Relist from Available Quantity” option:

The way our auto relist feature works is that you keep your actual available quantity to buy in Bizelo — in your “Quantity In Stores” amount. So, if you have 10 items available to sell, make sure that Bizelo has the Quantity Available in Stores set to 10. We will still set Etsy to have just “1″ in the quantity on Etsy. When a sale comes into Bizelo, we will deduct the amount purchased from your Quantity In Stores and if you have the Relist function enabled, we will automatically relist that item. We will continue to relist the item until either you run out of available Quantity in your Stores, or you have set a minimum threshold limit for that item. That’s it! Remember that Quantity in Stores is different from Quantity on Shelf. The Shelf quantity is what you have to ship customers, and Store quantity is what’s available for people to buy.

The auto relist feature makes relisting and renewing Etsy items easy and hassle free.  Our new Etsy autorelister makes our Bizelo eRetail Inventory Management App better than ever, saving you time and increasing your productivity.

• Automatically relist an Etsy item whenever an order comes in, without having to log into Etsy
• Relist from available store quantities. Store quantities are automatically deducted
• Relist until the available quantity reaches “0″ or you have set a minimum threshold level for that item.
• Renew while you sleep – don’t forget those customers on the other side of the globe
• Manage renewals in multiple Etsy and other ecommerce shops from one Bizelo account

“Just wanted to touch base and let you know how great this auto relist function is that you just turned on for us.  It is just starting to sink in how REALLY great this is going to be for us.  I knew it would be a HUGE labor saver but I never considered how it could be a sales driver.  On ETSY, the spoils go to the aggressive shops that list ALL the time.  Customers tend to search and then view by “most recently listed”.  As we all know, people’s attention span is short.  If you don’t get seen in the first couple of pages, they are on to the next search.  Hence you must always be listing, relisting, getting your stuff “to the top.” Until today, overnight orders sat until morning to be relisted. While Europe searched, I slept.  According to theory, not anymore.  With auto relist, I will be able to keep items moving to the top, hopefully driving more sales.”
