There’s an all-in-one Amazon analytics tool that offers personalized notifications in Seller Central. So, you can access key repricing analytics, as well as status and performance updates in real time. Its name? BuyBoxBuddy.
As an Amazon seller, you’ve got your eye on inventory analytics every day, along with performance metrics, sales, and repricing data. It’s all a bit too much, though, isn’t it? Also, even if all this information comes to you all at once, it might still be obsolete by the time you see it.
So, how do you juggle it all? Easy. There’s a feature from Amazon that gives you up-to-date inventory analytics in one fell swoop. Luckily, BuyBoxBuddy is already on it. We partnered with Amazon to show you personalized notifications straight in Seller Central.
Key Repricing Analytics & Notifications for Amazon Sellers
At SellerEngine, we’re all about the sellers. We already know how they gauge performance and what key data points they need. It’s Buy Box analytics, sales, inventory, and price data. But all this information isn’t much use to them if it’s not fresh and fast.
So, how do you get critical data about Buy Box wins, stock-outs, and missed opportunities in real time and in one place? Cue the drum roll… with personalized notifications in Seller Central, courtesy of BuyBoxBuddy.

Let’s not forget about graphs. Aside from the sales graph above, you can also access a price history graph in BuyBoxBuddy for every item in your inventory. That way, you can see every price strategy in action. So, you get to see what happens when win the Buy Box, for example.
