1. Introduction
In this Onboarding tutorial, we will walk you through the effective ways to add products and sync to other marketplaces to sell. We would suggest you add products to one of the sales channels (preferably Shopee), perform Bulk Inventory Linking and then use Bulk Copy Listing tool to copy the products to other sales channels.
In this guide, you will learn 1 more SKU term, which is Master SKU. Master SKU is used to group Parent SKU together and with that, you can easily sync products across the marketplaces in one page. After setting Master SKU, you may also utilize the Marketplace Pricing Management feature to edit and sync prices to all these marketplaces too.

Step 1: Navigate to Products > Shopee Listing > + Add Product.
Step 2: If your product has variants, enable the Product has variants status > fill in the Parent SKU, Product Name, and Categories. The categories would be recommended based on the Product Name.
💡Tips: Giving your product a structured name.
Step 3: Insert a complete and detailed Product Description to give customers a better understanding of the product. Only certain selected whitelisted sellers are able to upload images in the Description. If this applies to you, you may enable the Description with Image status and upload images in the description.
