Just wondering from other stealth pros once you open an Amazon account how slow/fast do you start $$ amount would be great so I know what I am getting into. Amount each month for the first three or four months would be good to hear.
The complete step-by-step guide to get back to selling today!
Well.....Is it pro or Individual ? Do you have other back up accounts? Do you need your money right away?
Individual accounts: Ive heard the magic number is 750 a month to kick it into review, rolling reserve.
Not sure about Pro account since mine has been around for 8 years things have changed.
So. If you have a back up account, throw this one into review right away. If you are fine with 700 a month with a few other accounts, 2100 a month, go that route. All depends on what youre looking for
The account is Pro. Thats why I am wondering what the numbers should start off at the beginning and how long until you can start selling in the thousands range
Use common sense. Start selling go pros and items like that then its higher risk Start selling stuff for 400 a pop, issues.
Stick to the norm, and things go normal
My personal experience only, I never encountered any speed limits/bumps per say, at least given my sales amounts - across any of my many stealthes. Been going strong for over 4 months now @ 10-15k a month.

This is most dangerous time of the year for new accounts, big sales and you will be suspended or rolling reserve if lucky. Amazon are looking for people setting up a new accounts, selling items, not posting them and running with the money. If you want to do good trade in November/December you need to start planning in July and grow the account month on month.
If you dont want your account to make the sales volume so high is it ok to inactive the items the last week of the month that way there wont be any sales?

No, this will raise a flag in opinion. Just price you goods higher to reduce sales.
Taking the Micky - That makes sense because if your a "new" account then you would slowly add a few products. It doesn't make sense for someone to open a new account and have 200 sku's in one week. So they suspend it to review it closely. How do people get the sorry your business failed our review process suspension? I just opened my first stealth account with a new LLC. We have no products yet so it will totally be like a new account but I used a dead persons name, LOL.
August, open an account, list hundreds of items ans get sales the first day, no big deal. Today, this exact day, have late shipments approach 4% and get a temporary suspension until all orders have tracking uploaded on 120 day old accounts.
November and December is the worst times to try to sell on newer accounts and death to new accounts.
