GPT- Walmart Seller Assistant

I have been using ChatGPT for some time and decided to create a simple Walmart Seller Assistant GPT, which I fed with data from our own internal knowledge base about Walmart, as well as knowledge from the official Walmart Help website. ChatGPT just opened its official GPT store to the public, so I am excited to share this GPT with the community. Please note that this GPT is very much a work in progress, more like my weekend project, but I personally found it very helpful in troubleshooting issues or looking for answers about selling on Walmart, and I hope it will be helpful to other sellers. Please feel free to share your feedback. This is a non-commercial, free-to-use GPT. Remember that this GPT uses ChatGPT’s AI capacity and the data and instructions I provided, but it should not be 100% trusted, and any important information should still be consulted with our support, Walmart support, and official Walmart documentation.
