What's going wrong
Merchants using Shopify marketing and Google Shopping feed apps report that product listings disappear or syncs stall while the app still looks installed. No error, log, or warning appears, so owners notice only after sales dip, acquisition costs rise, or a promotion fails. Reports come from single-store owners, agencies, and small sellers without developers who cannot tell whether the cause is configuration, Google, Shopify, or the app. Sellers with large catalogues struggle most because they cannot tell which items were removed or why. The opportunity is a monitor that checks feed delivery and connection health on a schedule, logs status changes, flags sudden listing drops, and alerts the owner the moment something breaks.
