Questions from Gwalior sellers
Can Chanderi and handloom sellers use your service?
Yes. Handloom sells on Amazon Karigar, Flipkart Samarth, Myntra and internationally. iTokri proved the model from Gwalior; we build catalogues and manage the channels.
Where should a Gwalior seller keep stock?
Split between Indore, for MP, and Delhi NCR, for the north. Gwalior is close enough to NCR by road that NCR placement often wins.
Is quick commerce live in Gwalior?
Yes on Blinkit, Instamart, BigBasket and Flipkart Minutes. Zepto was not live when we checked.
Can stone products sell online?
Decor and small sandstone items do. Heavy tiles are B2B and suit Amazon Business and IndiaMART. We set up the right channel for each SKU.
How does pricing work?
We price per marketplace and scope: a monthly retainer for account management, and for ads either a retainer or a percentage of managed ad spend. Catalogue work is priced per SKU. You get a written scope and price after a 30-minute call, no lock-in beyond the first quarter.
Do you work with new sellers or only established brands?
Both. New sellers get onboarding, catalogue and launch support. Established brands usually come to us for ads efficiency, operations and reporting across several marketplaces.
Where are you based and which cities do you serve?
Blooprint Automation is based in Bengaluru (Whitefield) and works with sellers across India, including Delhi NCR, Mumbai, Bangalore, Jaipur, Surat and Ahmedabad. Everything runs remotely through your seller accounts, with weekly reviews on call.
Will I still own my seller account and data?
Yes. You keep ownership of every account. We work through secondary user access or advertising API access that you can revoke at any time.
