The "My Products" section in Peregrine Ship is your central hub for managing all the products in your store. This feature allows you to oversee your inventory, including products sourced through your own suppliers, products added via Find and Winning Products, and products connected to your Shopify stores or other platforms. Understanding how to use My Products will streamline your inventory management and ensure you’re always ready to fulfill customer orders.
What Is "My Products"?
"My Products" is a collection of all the products that are connected to your e-commerce platform (like Shopify) and are managed through Peregrine Ship. This includes:
Products from Your Own Inventory: These are products that you have either sourced yourself or through Peregrine Ship’s Custom Sourcing service, which are currently stored in our warehouse and available for fulfillment.
Products from the Find and Winning Products Catalog: These are pre-sourced products available for immediate import and sale in your store. You can easily add these to your Shopify or connected store for quick fulfillment.
The "My Products" section integrates all these items into one place, allowing for easy management and visibility.
How "My Products" Works
1. Products from Your Own Inventory
If you’ve already sent inventory to our warehouse (from your own supplier or through Custom Sourcing), these products will automatically appear in the My Products section after you’ve added them through the Add Inventoryprocess.
Create a Product First: Before adding inventory, you need to create the product in Peregrine Ship. You’ll enter the product name, SKU, and specifications, which will then be linked to your inventory once it arrives.
Product and Inventory Sync: Once your inventory is in the warehouse and passes inspection, the product is updated with the available stock count, and you can begin fulfilling orders immediately.
These products are always synced with the quantity of inventory in your warehouse, ensuring real-time updates and minimizing the chance of overselling.
2. Products from Find and Winning Products
The Find and Winning Products catalogs allow you to browse through a curated list of hot-selling, pre-sourced products that are ready to be added to your store. These products are particularly useful for dropshipping and e-commerce sellers looking to quickly expand their product offerings without dealing with sourcing complexities.
Browse Products: Navigate to the Find Products or Winning Products sections within Peregrine Ship to browse available items. These products are chosen based on market trends and are from trusted suppliers.
Import to Your Store: With one click, you can import these products to your Shopify or connected store. The product details, including images, descriptions, and pricing, are automatically synced with your store, saving you time on setup.
No Need to Worry About Inventory: These products are fulfilled directly from Peregrine Ship’s warehouse, and the stock is managed by us. As long as the product remains in stock, you can continue selling it.
Connecting "My Products" to Your Shopify Store
To manage your products effectively, it’s crucial to connect your Peregrine Ship account with your Shopify store (or other e-commerce platforms). Here's how to do it:
1. Connect Your Shopify Store
Go to the Integrations section in Peregrine Ship.
Choose Connect Shopify and follow the instructions to link your store.
Once connected, all products you import from My Products will automatically sync with your Shopify store.
2. Manage Products Across Multiple Stores
If you’re running multiple stores, you can manage products for each of them from the My Products section. Peregrine Ship allows you to filter and categorize products by store, making it easy to manage stock and listings across different platforms.
Managing Product Details in "My Products"
The My Products section provides you with detailed product management features. Here’s what you can do:
Edit Product Information: For each product, you can update the name, SKU, description, images, and pricing directly within Peregrine Ship. These changes will automatically reflect on your connected store.
Monitor Stock Levels: The product listing shows real-time stock availability, so you can monitor inventory levels and avoid overselling. You can also set low-stock alerts to ensure timely restocking.
View Sales Performance: Track how well each product is performing in terms of sales, returns, and customer feedback.
Handling Custom Sourced Products in My Products
For products sourced through Custom Sourcing, Peregrine Ship handles the entire process from supplier negotiation to delivery and fulfillment. Here’s how they appear in My Products:
Custom Sourced Products Automatically Added: When you submit a custom sourcing request, and we find the right supplier, the product will automatically be created in My Products once you approve the order.
Stock Updates After Inspection: Once the stock arrives at our warehouse and passes quality control, the quantity will be updated in your My Products section. You can then begin selling the custom-sourced product in your store.
No Extra Steps for Product Creation: Unlike manually added products, custom-sourced products are created and managed for you, saving you time and effort.
How "My Products" Syncs with "My Inventory"
"My Products" and "My Inventory" work in tandem to give you full control over your stock and product listings:
My Inventory: Tracks the physical quantity of products stored in Peregrine Ship’s warehouse, whether it’s from your own supplier or from custom sourcing.
My Products: Shows the products listed in your store and their connection to the inventory stored in the warehouse. As inventory levels fluctuate, these changes are reflected in both sections.
For example:
If you’ve added 1,000 units of a product from your own supplier, that quantity will be reflected in My Inventory, and the corresponding product in My Products will show it as ready for sale.
If you’ve imported a product from Find Products, Peregrine Ship will manage the inventory, and My Productswill sync with real-time availability.
