Free product listing sheet

About this document

A product listing sheet stages your catalog before it goes live: SKU, title, price, quantity and status for every item in one view. It's the difference between launching a batch of products and launching a pile of browser tabs.

When to use it

• Preparing a batch of new listings — photos pending, prices half-decided.
• Reconciling what's listed across a marketplace and your own site.
• Season changeovers, where old listings retire as new ones land.

Getting it right

• Invent SKUs even where the marketplace doesn't force them — "MUG-BLU-12" survives renames and relistings; titles don't.
• Use the status column as a mini pipeline (photos done → drafted → live) and the sheet becomes a launch tracker for free.
• Write titles the way buyers search, not the way your workshop labels things.

It stages listings — it doesn't publish anywhere, and prices are what you plan to charge before fees and taxes, which it deliberately doesn't compute.

Common questions

Do I really need SKUs?

The moment you have two blue mugs in different sizes, yes. It's your own short code per variant, and future-you depends on it.

Prices with or without marketplace fees?

This sheet holds what the buyer sees. What fees do to margin is worth knowing — from your own math or the marketplace's calculator, not from this sheet.

One sheet per sales channel?

The channel field supports either. One combined sheet stays honest longer for small catalogs.
