Sending your stock to a prep centre for the first time can feel like handing over control of something you have been managing yourself. At Precision, we understand that concern, and we have designed our onboarding process to make the transition as smooth and transparent as possible. Here is exactly what happens from first contact to your first shipment leaving our facility for Amazon.
Getting Started
The first step is getting in touch. You can reach us through our website, email, or phone. We will have a conversation about your business — how many SKUs you sell, your typical monthly volumes, what services you need, and any specific requirements your products have. This helps us understand your needs and give you an accurate idea of costs.
We will set you up with access to our client portal, where you can track your stock from the moment it arrives at our facility through to dispatch. We will also invite you to our Discord server, which is where real-time communication happens — photos of your stock as it arrives, questions about specific items, and general updates.
Sending Your First Stock
Ship your stock to our Atherstone facility. Include a packing list detailing what is in each box — product names, quantities, ASINs or notes about what each item is. This speeds up our receiving process significantly. If you are sending items that need specific prep (poly bagging, bundling, or special handling), let us know in advance so we are prepared.
When your stock arrives, we check it in against your packing list, inspect condition, and notify you through the portal and Discord. If there are any issues — damaged items, missing products, or items needing clarification — we contact you before proceeding.
The Prep Process
Once checked in, your stock enters our prep queue. We handle FNSKU labelling, poly bagging, bubble wrapping, bundling, and any other preparation required by Amazon. Every unit is inspected for condition and compliance before being packed for shipment. We create the shipping plans in Seller Central (or you can create them yourself if you prefer), and once everything is prepped and boxed, we arrange collection through Amazon's Partnered Carrier or your preferred shipping method.
After Your First Shipment
You will see your stock arrive at Amazon's fulfilment centres and become available for sale — typically within a few days of dispatch from our facility. From there, the process repeats: you source, ship to us, we prep and send to Amazon. Over time, we get to know your products and preferences, which makes each cycle faster and more efficient. Most clients find that after the first couple of shipments, the process feels completely natural.
