The mapping function is a tool that enables e-commerce and dropshipping sellers to efficiently manage and categorize SKUs, organize distribution, and implement marketing strategies such as BOGO and product bundles. For instance, in June 2022, DSers, a Hong Kong-based e-commerce solutions provider, launched a significant upgrade to its mapping function, designed to simplify and streamline dropshipping product management for sellers. This enhanced functionality offers various methods, including SKU mapping and upsell mapping, allowing sellers to select the approach that best aligns with their business model, brand, and product offerings. This new functionality offers five options: basic mapping, standard mapping, advanced mapping, BOGO (Buy-One-Get-One) mapping, and bundle mapping. Basic mapping allows for quick SKU categorization across different suppliers, while standard mapping provides more precise management of individual SKUs. BOGO Mapping facilitates promotional campaigns such as buy-one-get-one-free deals without relying on third-party apps, and bundle mapping supports the sale of product kits, enabling consumers to purchase multiple items at discounted rates.
