alekov | 04-15-2016 08:34 AM | Best/Most Cost Effective setup to run 10 Amazon Stealth accounts Trying to setup 10 or so Amazon Stealth accounts. I have the stealth book, and also have ran couple ghost accounts simultaneously before for a year or two, but just had both go down within 3 months of each other and found myself account less and pissed off. :mad:
Looking for the easiest and most cost effective way of running 10 or so accounts. I have the VPNs covered, thanks to help from forum members here, and plan on using 10 dedicated fresh IPs at around $130 per year each. I guess I don't see a way around this cost.
However, I'm having a hard time figuring out the best setup for LLCs/EINs and addresses, bank accounts and etc. Setting up 10 separate LLCs and maintaining them seems cumbersome to me. Is there a way to setup one LLC with many DBAs and receive different EIN numbers for each DBA? What would be the implications regarding banking? I've been using bank accounts/debit cards setup til now, just not sure if you can have 10 debit cards setup on DBA names and EINs? Also renting mailboxes gets expensive at around $200 per year each, plus you run in the problem of selling similar merchandise on many accounts all located within driving distance from each other. I've used free mail forwarding places before in other cities, and that works alright, however, I don't know if I can find 10 of them, as I already have used the 2-3 of them in the past, and I don't believe I can re-use them on other accounts since the street address is always the same, just the suite number changes. Also there is a high cost associated with the forwarding of returned items, as they usually charge $12-$15 per item to forward back to me. It works fine for selling FBA I guess.
So any help on the following would be greatly appreciated:
1. Legal setup for the 10 accounts. (LLC with a multiple DBAs/EIN possibility?)
2. Bank account for deposits/Card for verification for the accounts under that setup.
3. Addresses to use (mailbox rentals vs. mail forwarding vs. using empty lot addresses where no one lives maybe, if using only FBA)
Thank you in advance for any help/suggestions! |
