Description

Scott and Hunter are the co-creators of MyCostPro. Scott has been a part time eBay reseller for the last 17 years. Hunter is a software engineer with 13 years of application development experience. Together they developed MyCostPro, an eBay Certified app for Excel that connects to your seller account, downloads your sales, automates reporting, and generally makes seller's lives easier. Interesting Notes Scott and Hunter went to college together. They have worked on the same job in an Electronic Boutique in the mall selling video games. Now, they both have separate full-time jobs. Scott is a Business major and works in a corporate world. While Hunter is a programmer for 13 years. Scott sold spreadsheets. He used to give manually his customers a spreadsheet when they purchased from him. At one point, Scott asked Hunter if it could be automated. Hunter is an application developer but never did a website development. It was a challenge to Hunter to learn it on. They set up a server to distribute Scott's old spreadsheets. At the same time, they worked on a new spreadsheet. That is how the MyCostPro came about. Since they have different backgrounds, they do separate jobs in MyCostPro. Scott does the website stuff that he is capable of. While Hunter does all the technical stuff. Hunter treats Scott as a customer. Scott would come to him with technical requirements and Hunter make this happen. Scott has a YouTube channel for basic excel tutorials. He has 2400 subscribers. MyCostPro runs on an excel framework. With the click of a button, it will download up to the last 90 days of your sale. It gets everything from the item description, the sale date and price, the shipping cost, customer information, etc...You can also relist your items from there. It can keep your email list up to date. Here are some Cool Features of MyCostPro: 1. It can extract your Profit/Loss performance. 2. It can extract a Product Master List where you can list all the products that sell and its cost. For sellers who sells the same thing, you can put the cost at one time. 3. It can import an unsold item and re-list it on eBay. 4. It can edit the current quantities in bulk. Every feature that they put in the sheet is borne out of the desire to make the lives of eBay sellers easier. With an automated data recording, sellers would have more time to spend on sourcing, selling and helping their customers. Scott and Hunter get more new ideas as they continue to interact with their customers. With this, they promise to add more features to make things more efficient and better for them. Their spreadsheet works on all eBay platforms. They have customers in Australia, Singapore, Portugal, UK, and all around the world. If you can figure out how to open an excel and paste the download code, then you can manage the whole MyCostPro thing. Because it is pretty much a "point and click" thing. Their website has video tutorials to guide you through. They have forms where people can comment or ask questions on technical challenges. People can also call or email them directly.
