Load your catalog before Q4, without hiring

To list hundreds of products before Black Friday without hiring, listing prep can’t depend on headcount anymore. With Argos, you send products through in batches: each listing is built on its own, in the background, and your team only reviews and approves, in 5 minutes per listing instead of an hour. Setup takes as little as 2 weeks: do it before the rush, not during.

How do I list 300 products before Black Friday without hiring?

By splitting the work in two.

  • Prep: copy, images, price, attributes, category. Argos handles it. A listing takes 20 to 30 minutes, but it runs on its own: you launch a batch of fifty products, go do something else, and come back to review.
  • Approval: your current team reviews and approves in one click, instead of doing data entry.

With Argos, you get 9 to 12 listings in the time it takes to build one without Argos.

Why get ready before the rush?

Because Q4 is for selling, not for setting up tools. Your listings need to be live before traffic peaks, so the time to load your Q4 catalog is September and October.

  3. Setup and pilot runAs little as 2 weeks. Pilot run on 10 of your own products, in one of your stores.
  4. Loading your catalogProducts go through in batches, your team approves.
  5. The rushYour listings are live, on-brand for every store.

Should I hire for the rush?

Hiring for a few weeks means finding people, training them, checking their work, then starting over next year. With Argos, each store’s rules are set once: the thousandth listing follows the same rules as the first, and quality doesn’t drop when volume goes up.

And after the rush?

You slow down, and so does your bill. With pay as you go, your usage credits follow your volume. And there’s no commitment: stop whenever you want.

The details: pricing.

Questions about the rush

Will rushed listings be sloppier?
No. Same rules, same checks, same human approval: nothing goes live until someone on your team has approved it.
I’m starting late. Is it still doable?
Setup takes as little as 2 weeks, pilot run included. The actual timeline depends on your stores, so the simplest way to find out is to book a call.
Do I have to roll it out to every store at once?
No. We start with 1 store for the pilot run, then roll out to the rest. See also: Argos for a multi-store portfolio.
