KAKOBUY: How to Rank Sellers by QC Performance
A Data-Driven Approach Using the KAKOBUY Spreadsheet & Weighted Scoring
Effectively managing multiple sellers is key to ensuring product quality and customer satisfaction. The KAKOBUY spreadsheet transforms Quality Control (QC) data into actionable seller rankings. This guide explains how to implement a weighted scoring system based on three critical performance indicators.
The Three Pillars of QC Performance
We assign scores to each seller based on these measurable metrics:
- Inspection Success Rate (QC Pass Rate):
- Communication Speed (Response Time):
- Delivery Punctuality (On-Time Delivery):
- Communication Speed (Response Time):
Assigning Weighted Scores
Not all metrics are equally important. Assign weights that reflect your business priorities. A common weighting structure is:
| Performance Metric | Weight | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| Inspection Success Rate | 50% | Product quality is fundamental. Defects lead to returns, refunds, and brand damage. |
| Communication Speed | 30% | Fast communication enables proactive problem-solving and smooth operations. |
| Delivery Punctuality | 20% | Reliable timelines are crucial for inventory planning and customer promises. |
Note: You can adjust these percentages in the KAKOBUY spreadsheet based on your specific needs.
Step-by-Step: Building the Ranking in Your Spreadsheet
-
Data Collection & Normalization
Input raw data for each seller. Convert this data into a standardized score (e.g., 0 to 10 or 0 to 100).
- Example for Success Rate:
- Example for Communication:
- Example for Punctuality:
- Example for Communication:
- Example for Success Rate:
-
Calculate Weighted Score
Use a formula to combine the scores. If your normalized scores are on a scale of 100:
Weighted Score = (Success_Rate * 0.50) + (Communication_Score * 0.30) + (Punctuality_Score * 0.20) -

Visualize (Optional but Recommended)
Create a bar chart or conditional formatting (color scales) to make the rankings instantly visible.
Practical Example
| Seller | QC Rate (50%) | Comm Score (30%) | On-Time (20%) | Weighted Total | Rank |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Seller Alpha | 98% → 98 | 8/10 → 80 | 95% → 95 | 92.5 | #1 |
| Seller Beta | 90% → 90 | 10/10 → 100 | 80% → 80 | 91.0 | #2 |
| Seller Gamma | 85% → 85 | 6/10 → 60 | 90% → 90 | 78.5 | #3 |
