How One Seller Reclaimed Time and Visibility
with MyListerHub

OverView

A seller with outdated listings unlocks automated growth

An experienced eBay seller with listings from 2019 had one big problem: their inventory had gone stale, visibility was dropping, and manual relisting had become a burden. After discovering MyListerHub, they completely transformed their workflow and saw listing impressions surge by up to 200% within within 60–90 days.

Customer Introduction

Wholesale medical supplier selling on eBay since 2005

This seller is a wholesaler of medical equipment and supplies, with a primary focus on serving schools, educational institutions, and training centers. They specialize in new and refurbished laboratory equipment and supplies, including items like sanitizers, pipettes, microscopes, and centrifuges. They launched their eBay store in 2005 to expand their reach online. Their biggest challenge was keeping listings fresh and visible without spending hours each month on manual relisting—a task that had become overwhelming over time.

Challenge

Aging Listings, Low Visibility, and a Time-Consuming Process

This seller had been active on eBay since 2005, with thousands of listings — many of which hadn’t been updated in years. As time went on, more and more of their inventory became stale. The store’s visibility declined, impressions dropped, and older listings were buried deep in search results.

They knew that refreshing listings was essential to maintaining visibility on eBay, but doing it manually had become a massive chore. It required ending items, relisting them one by one, and tweaking details just to get back into search rotation — a process that took days every month. Eventually, they gave up on it altogether.

To make matters worse, most tools they tried didn’t solve this core issue. They focused only on inventory sync or preventing overselling — not on driving traffic or automating listing refresh cycles.

The seller needed a better system — one that could revive their listings automatically, restore daily activity to their store, and save them countless hours of tedious work.

Strategic Approach

A phased plan to regain visibility and control

Before launching any automation, we worked closely with the seller to follow a clear optimization path:

Step 1: Clean Up the Foundation

We identified and resolved listing errors by updating required item specifics and standardizing business policies across all inventory. This ensured the account was compliant and ready for automation.

Step 2: Launch Automated Listing Cycle

The automation was designed to remove one unsold item every 15 minutes, wait 24 hours, and then re-upload that same item to appear as newly listed. The seller also added dynamic pricing to increase item prices slightly (within a 5–10% range) and set each listing to run for 50 days before the cycle restarts if unsold.
This approach not only kept the store active in eBay’s eyes but also gave listings renewed visibility — without any manual relisting effort.

Step 3: Optimize for Engagement

Once the automation stabilized, the next focus was improving click-through and conversion rates by enhancing titles, updating images, and testing better listing templates.

Solution

Turning strategy into action with MyListerHub

With a clear plan in place, we guided the seller through each stage of the optimization process. Rather than offering just another listing tool, MyListerHub became a partner in execution — simplifying complex tasks and automating where it mattered most.
Our goal: eliminate manual relisting work, increase listing visibility, and create a sustainable system that scales with the seller’s growing inventory.

Implementation

How automation replaced manual relisting

The rollout began during the onboarding call. The seller connected their eBay store via a secure login — instantly syncing all active listings, orders, business policies, messages, and categories.

Next, using MyListerHub’s bulk edit tool, the seller updated item specifics and standardized outdated business policies across their entire catalog — some of which hadn’t been touched since 2019.

Once the listings were cleaned up, the seller activated their automated listing cycle (Launching Profile) with the following configuration:

• Removes one unsold item every 15 minutes
• Waits 24 hours before relisting that item to give it a fresh entry into eBay’s search algorithm
• Re-uploads items in the same 15-minute interval to maintain daily store activity.
• Applies a dynamic price adjustment between 5–10%
• Sets each relisted item to run for 50 days, after which the cycle restarts if the item doesn’t sell

This automation gave the seller a store that consistently looked active and engaged to both eBay and buyers — without the burden of manual relisting — while freeing up valuable time for other improvements like photo updates and listing optimization.

Results

More impressions, more views, zero relisting hassle

After implementing MyListerHub’s automation and cleanup workflow, the seller saw dramatic improvements in store activity and visibility:

• Listing impressions increased by 150–200% within 60-90 days
• Page views grew by 30–40%, even before optimizing titles or photos
• Manual relisting time reduced from days to zero, giving the seller more time to focus on expanding inventory, improving sales, and scaling the business

Favorite Feature

The Launching Profile that runs on autopilot

The seller's top feature is the automated listing cycle (Launching Profile) — a solution they had long needed but couldn’t find in other tools. After creating the automation rule once, it’s been running on autopilot ever since. Every few months, they tweak the settings and run A/B tests to maximize visibility, experimenting with pricing, timing, and duration to fine-tune results and maintain consistent performance.

In Their Words

“I used to spend weeks relisting.
Now I barely think about it — it just runs.
I’ve been able to focus more on growing my inventory and improving my business.”
