Re: Anybody use 1 Shipstation account for all Stealth Accounts?
 

Been using shipstation for 2.5 years. Have used over 100 accounts including ebay/amazon and none were linked together.

Even in this amazon and shipstation linking theory non of the accounts were ever affected.

Re: Anybody use 1 Shipstation account for all Stealth Accounts?
 

I have my own website and I stealthily want people to visit my website via my stealth accounts.

I was thinking of using a branded tracking page and also the shipment confirmation email that links to my website. This is sent directly to the users email, not to any of the selling platforms.

I'm sure there is some risk here, but it's a valuable marketing tool.

What do you guys think?

Lastly, is it safe to use Ship Station's automatic feedback?

1) Put packing slip with your site info and perhaps offer a discount coupon
2) Yes, shipstation can send different messages. I send the one where it states their tracking info, address etc and at the end I put down my site info as well as logo and a discount code

So you do marketing across your different stealth accounts via the shipping confirmation email?

I usually add a business card to the package, but if you've never had a problem putting it on the packing slip I might go there too.

That and in shipstation you can modify packing slip with html code. I have requested some people to do it for me, so it looks more than professional. I also print on my coupon code for the site.

So, some of my sales are just break even sales to get more sales for sell-through rate for ebay as well as to gain potential customers for the website.

I personally throw away all flyers and rarely look at them but the thing is coupon and site are on the packing slip, so you cant get rid of it.

Based on this thread I am thinking about a new plan for my eBay account creation and I am curious to hear whether you think it is safe.

What I am currently doing: Using one ship station account and manually creating orders for each item that sells and linking none of my eBay accounts to it (I had one account on it but it was banned 3 months ago). This is of course horribly inefficient.

New eBay accounts would be created and all linked to the same shipstation account. Once they reach a certain point (i.e. 90 days old or 2,000 items per month limit or something like that) they will graduate up to having their own shipstation account and be removed from the shared one.

Would be okay to have all of my accounts switch to different shipstations once they get big enough or would that be a red flag for eBay?

They don't want to lose customers and get a bad reputation. I doubt they would intentionally get you linked. They are not dummies...

Re: Anybody use 1 Shipstation account for all Stealth Accounts?
 

You are still importing orders from your ebay accounts to 1 shipstation account, which is linking according to your logic.

You dont think that once you link to 1 shared shipstation account and you suddenly change each ebay account to each shipstation account would case a link?

I am still running about 15 accounts on my shipstation and all are pretty big sellers and havent had a problem for 2-3 years now.

Of course it is your choice to do so but shipstation is not just a tool for pushing orders or notifying customers, it is more functional than you think.

Hi there, I just posted a question regarding linkage with 3rd party software. I wanted to get your insight since it sounds like you have had a lot of experience with these :)
