Apparel sellers — what's your workflow for getting product photos into Shopify after a new drop? How long does it take?

General

Hey everyone, I'm curious about how you all handle the process of uploading and listing product photos once a new collection/drop drops. Specifically:

What tools or methods do you use (Shopify admin, APIs, third-party apps like Matrixify/Importify, bulk CSV imports, etc.)?

Do you use any automation to pull from Google Drive, Dropbox, or a CDN?

Roughly how long does it take from having the raw photos to everything live on your store?

Looking for any tips or shortcuts — especially if there are ways to speed up the process when you're dealing with 20+ SKUs at once. Always feel like this part is a bottleneck.

Appreciate any input!
