If you’re running an ecommerce business, WooCommerce automation can feel like hiring an assistant who never sleeps and always gets things right.
By quietly taking care of the background work, these tools can help you reclaim your time and energy to focus on other responsibilities. After all, when automation kicks in, tasks that used to fill our days now run on their own—like magic, but based on real workflows you can rely on.
In this article, we’ll discuss 3 powerful WooCommerce automation tools that will help you save time while boosting sales.
So let’s get cracking!
Why Automate Your WooCommerce Store?
Running a WooCommerce store means doing a lot of the same tasks again and again. We know because we’ve spent more time than we’d like doing them by hand.
These jobs may seem simple, but they quickly eat into your day—especially as your product list grows. Here are just a few of the things that used to fill our schedule:
- Product edits: Updating titles, images, and categories across dozens (or hundreds) of products.
- Price changes: Adjusting prices during sales or syncing them with supplier updates.
- Stock updates: Manually tracking inventory levels and fixing out-of-stock items.
- Writing product descriptions: Coming up with fresh, clear descriptions and summaries that match the product.
- Answering customer questions: Responding to the same types of questions over and over.
- Creating product tags: Picking the right keywords to help products get found faster.
- Summarizing customer reviews: Pulling key points from long review sections to help new shoppers.
- Sending cart reminder emails: Writing and scheduling follow-up messages to prevent cart abandonment.
- Messaging order updates: Keeping customers informed about order statuses, restocks, and new arrivals.
It isn’t just time that you end up losing. The more manual work you do, the easier it is to make mistakes or miss something important.
Once you start automating key ecommerce tasks, you’ll see things change. Expect to save hours each week and finally have time to focus on growing your store instead of just maintaining it!
3 WooCommerce Automation Tools That Help Boost Sales
When you start automating tasks, you don’t just save time—you also boost sales.
With that in mind, here are three tools we’ve seen streamline processes and increase efficiency, leading to more growth.
1. AdTribes
From what we’ve seen, relying on just your website to sell products can limit your reach. Thankfully, showcasing your products on other platforms is a great way to boost sales.
However, manually updating product listings across multiple channels can be time-consuming. For instance, every time a customer makes a purchase, updating the product quantity on each platform can take a lot of time and effort.
This is where AdTribes comes in. This WooCommerce plugin lets you generate product feeds for multichannel selling.
What is a product feed? Basically, it’s a file that contains a list of all the products in your online store. It includes major product details like names, prices, descriptions, images, and more. This feed allows you to share your products with other sales channels, like Google or Meta, so more people can find and buy them.
How AdTribes handles WooCommerce automation
AdTribes makes WooCommerce automation simple by handling the time-consuming task of updating product listings automatically. Once you set it up, it will keep these listings fresh across multiple sales platforms, like Google Shopping, Instagram, and Bing Shopping, without you having to lift a finger.
With AdTribes product feeds, every time a customer buys your product from any sales channel, the product quantity updates automatically across all platforms. You don’t need to manually adjust stock levels for each channel. This ensures your inventory stays accurate, preventing you from overselling or wasting time adjusting stock numbers.
There are two versions of AdTribes. The free version comes with enough tools to help you start selling on multiple channels. The premium version, starting at $99.50 per year, adds more features that can improve your product feed setup and help your campaigns do better.
2. StoreAgent
Running a WooCommerce store takes a lot of work. You have product descriptions to write, reviews to summarize, tags to create, and customer questions to answer. You could hire a big team to handle it all, but that gets expensive fast. And people still get tired and make mistakes.
But what if you could automate all those tasks?
StoreAgent is a suite of AI-powered tools designed to handle various important yet challenging ecommerce tasks.
How StoreAgent handles WooCommerce automation
Let’s say you have hundreds of products. Writing short product descriptions for each one could take days or even weeks. That’s a lot of time, energy, and money gone!
StoreAgent’s Product Summaries AI makes this easier. Within seconds, it automatically writes short, clear descriptions for you. All you have to do is turn the AI on, select your product, then click the “Generate with AI” button.
StoreAgent operates on a pay-as-you-go credit system. You start with 500 free credits and each AI task performed uses one credit. After that, credits start at $29 for 500.
3. PushEngage
Running a WooCommerce store doesn’t stop once someone visits your site. You’ve got abandoned carts to recover, restocks to announce, and deals to promote. You could send all those messages manually, but that takes time. And it’s easy to forget or miss the right moment.
That’s where automation helps.
PushEngage is a tool that sends push notifications to your customers. These are short messages that pop up on their phones or browsers—even if they’re not on your site.
How PushEngage handles WooCommerce automation
Let’s say someone adds an item to their cart but doesn’t finish checking out. If they’ve allowed push notifications, PushEngage tracks their activity. It then sends an automatic message to their device after a short delay—like “Still thinking it over? Your cart is waiting!”—to remind them to return and complete their purchase.
You can also use this plugin to send updates about restocks, shipping, or big sales. Once you set it up, it handles the messages for you. No need to send each one by hand.
PushEngage has a free plan for small stores. If you need more features or subscribers, paid plans start at $8 per month.
Conclusion
WooCommerce automation saves time and helps you get more done with less effort. With the three tools we discussed, you can stop spending hours on tasks like writing product descriptions, fixing feeds, or following up with shoppers. Now those things take just minutes, allowing you to focus on growth instead of getting stuck in small tasks.
