Getting Started with ShoppingFeeder: Completing Your Account Setup
So, you’ve just signed up for ShoppingFeeder—congratulations! You’re on your way to boosting your sales by connecting your store to various marketing channels. But you might hit a snag if you don’t complete your account setup. Let’s dive into why that happens and how you can get everything up and running smoothly.
The Problem: Incomplete Account Setup
After registering, it’s common for new users to overlook the account setup process. Maybe you’re eager to dive into marketing, or perhaps the steps seem a bit daunting. Whatever the reason, not completing the setup can keep you from reaching potential customers and, ultimately, increase your sales.
Why does this matter? Well, without linking your store to platforms like Google Merchant Center, you won’t be able to showcase your products effectively in ads on Google, Facebook, Bing, and other channels. This means missing out on the chance to reach a wider audience and drive sales.
The Solution: A Simple Step-by-Step Guide
Don’t worry; completing your account setup is straightforward! Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you get started:
Step 1: Log Into Your Account
The first thing you need to do is log into your ShoppingFeeder account. This is where all the magic begins!
Step 2: Manage Your Channel
Once you’re logged in, go to your Dashboard. Here, you’ll find an option called “Manage Channel.” Click on it to proceed.
Step 3: Link Your Google Merchant Center
Now, select the option to “Manage Google.” You’ll be prompted to sign into your Google Merchant Center account. Just click “Yes” to start the process.
Step 4: Wait for Approval
After you’ve linked your Google account, your product feed will be pushed to your Google Merchant Center automatically. Here’s the catch: you’ll need to wait about 3-5 working days for your feed to be approved. Patience pays off, as your ads can start running as soon as your products are approved!
By following these simple steps, you’ll have everything set up and ready to go in no time.
Why This Matters
Completing your account setup is crucial for maximizing your online presence. Once your products are approved, you can launch ads and start reaching more customers. The sooner you get this done, the sooner you can start seeing results!
