Freeing up your ecommerce team: When it’s time to outsource marketplace operations

As ecommerce brands scale, marketplace operations quickly become more complex. Listing management, inventory updates, ad campaigns, customer service, reporting—it’s a lot to handle. And often, those tasks fall on a lean ecommerce team already stretched thin.

For growth-stage brands, trying to manage everything in-house isn’t just inefficient—it can stall your momentum. That’s why more brands are turning to partners like Amify to outsource marketplace operations and free up internal teams to focus on what they do best.

The signs your in-house team is reaching a breaking point

Even the most capable ecommerce teams eventually hit a ceiling when marketplace complexity grows. Here are common signs it’s time to consider outsourcing:

• Slower product launches because of listing bottlenecks or delayed approvals
• Inconsistent content across channels leading to brand confusion
• Reactive ad spend with limited time for testing or optimization
• Customer service lag that puts your seller ratings at risk
• Too much time in spreadsheets, not enough time on strategy

These challenges add up to real opportunity costs—and employee burnout.
