Amazon often asks for dozens of attributes per product, and Walmart tends to expect even more complete data. Dates typed as plain text, files that lose their structure when moved between CSV, JSON, and XML, and unit conversions done by hand are the usual culprits.<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"margin: 0 0 22px;\">Accurate, complete listings earn shopper trust and can increase conversion rates by 15 to 30 percent. [TO FILL: primary source, or soften] Poor data is expensive. Gartner research from 2020 put the average cost of poor data quality at $12.9 million a year per organization, and its data quality guidance notes that 59% of organizations do not measure data quality at all.<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"margin: 0 0 28px;\">Most of these problems start before conversion.
